This simple design mandate was quickly warped into an entirely different machine. For close work the 'Mech carried two [[medium laser]]s while a [[large laser]] provided long range and ammunition free firepower. The [[Coventry Defense Conglomerate]] was unable to overcome the inherent limitations of primitive technology however, resulting in a thinly armored and clumsy 'Mech that could only reach a top speed of 32 km/h.
