==Description==
 
==Description==
A [[Solaris VII]] [[BattleMech]], the '''''Tsunami''''' was originally a workhorse 'Mech that could hold its own on the battlefield as well as in the arenas. It wasn't flashy, it just got the job done. Critics were unimpressed by the original ''Tsunami'', so Omnitech redesigned it to take advantage of new technologies. The updated ''Tsunami'' reduces the armor weight but uses [[ferro-fibrous armor]] to make up the difference in protection. It also has a reduced jumping range of 120 meters. The most interesting change is the use of [[Triple Strength Myomer]], which allows the ''Tsunami'' to get a minor speed boost and inflict more damage in physical attacks.<ref>''Technical Readout: 3055 Upgrade'', p. 140</ref>

*; TS-P1 : The original ''Tsunami'' has standard armor in place of the TS-P1D's ferro-fibrous. It lacks the later model's [[Triple Strength Myomer]] but carries two more [[jump jet]]s. Instead of the Magshots it carried two [[Machine Gun]]s, as well as a pair of standard [[medium laser]]s instead of the TS-P1D's ER Lasers.<ref>''Solaris VII: The Game World'' 'Mech record sheets, p. 16</ref> Instead of the Streak SRM-4 launcher it carried a standard [[SRM-2]] launcher.
