Overview:

       NPLN-10HT Napolean Heavy Tank was designed at the same time as 
   the Rommel and Patton Tanks by Defiance Industries.  The project 
   didn't get off the boards, as the funding for the development of the 
   three tanks was running low and the Lyran Military wanted a working 
   vehicle as soon as possible.  The Napolean was reviewed later after 
   the marriage of Hanse Davion to Melissa Stiener and the Federated 
   Commonwealth was looking for a new armored vehicle to fill its 
   ranks.
Capabilities:

        The Napolean has the same familar low silhouete of 
   the Rommel and Patton tanks.  What makes the Napolean different is 
   the use of wheeles instead of tracks, in the assumption it is easier 
   to repair a single wheel destroyed in the field.  The Napolean also 
   uses a smaller fusion engine and cannont reach the same speeds as the 
   Rommel and Patton.

       The one weakness of the other tanks was the dependence of 
   ammunition for the autocannons.  The Napolean followed a completly 
   different line of design and mounts two Magna Hellstar PPCs in the 
   turrent.  These two energy weapons are very compact and fit quite 
   well in the small, low turrent of the Napolean.  Twenty heat sinks 
   keep the driving compartment quite well for the 5 crewmen despite the 
   tremoundous heat that can build up.  Two Shrike SRM-4, one in the 
   turrent and another in the front, are used for short range defense or 
   the final shot to finish approaching mechs.  Three machine guns, one 
   in the front/turrent/rear, keep any approaching intrantry from 
   getting to close and trying to plant satchel charges on the drive 
   transmissions.  Twelve tons of DuraShield armor surround the 
   chassis of the Napolean, providing protection from even the heaviest 
   of weapons.

Deployment:
        Currently, only a company has been produced and is 
   in the service of the Federated Commonwealth military along the 
   Draconis Combine border at this moment
