This profile is based on the previously published one from Space Gamer magazine issue #79. Ral Partha's catalog number… referenced explicitly in the Space Gamer article... for this 'Mech was 20-814.
The Introductory Level technology 'Mech was 65 tons and moved like a Panther. It relied on dual AC/2's, ML's and LRM5's for weaponry. It is 2 tons over weight.
