Overview:

Technial Readout: 3055

"The Gauss cannon is so heavy that the designers had to reduce the size of the original power plant to compensate. The final design runs at a maximum speed of 86 kph, which severly limits the 'Mech's ability to pursue other light 'Mechs and makes it difficult to mount an effective retreat if outnumbered or in need of ammunition. Space requirements limited ammo to sixteen shots for the cannon, and weight limitations forced designers to remove a medium laser from the design, so the 'Mech has no backup weapon.

Initial specifications also called for six tons of ferro-fibrous armor, giving the 'Mech very good coverage for its weight. After mounting the Gauss cannon, the designers found that the 'Mech could barely move and the weapon had difficulty tracking. The engineers were forced back to the drawing board again, and had to sacrifice armor coverage on the torso and arms in order to afford full articulation for the Gauss cannon."

[Editor's notes: A reduced powerplant "size" can mean both speed and physical size, which I interpret as starting with an XL engine at 6/9/0. The original ML is added back, but ammo is cut to 1 ton - remember, this was a flawed prototype. 6 tons of FF are present. 1/2 ton over; ignores 1/4 ton rounding rule for XL engine and ES. No, this isn't the Hollander II.]
