Description
Created by Clan Nova Cat after the success of the Shoden, the Joust was designed to be a well-rounded medium tank. With a wide mix of weapons, the Joust is a versatile design, capable of handling a multitude of roles and missions. Additionally, the Joust has eight tons of Ferro-Fibrous, double that of the similar Ares tank, enhancing the Joust's survivability. The tank was designed shortly after the creation of the SM1 Tank Destroyer Hover Tank during the Jihad.[1]
Early versions of the Joust had problems with their fire control programs, occasionally causing the ER Large Laser to fire unexpectedly.
Armament
The Joust is well armed for its size, with a Series 7N ER Large Laser, a Type X "Short Bow" LRM-10, and eight Series 2c Light Machine Guns in its turret.
Notes
The Joust was originally created for WizKids's MWDA gameline. The vehicle's name was originally produced as BE701 Joust. However, line-developers with Catayst Game Labs who produced their own rendition of the vehicle, have redone the name place its model number in middle of it name, making its Joust BE701 Medium Tank. It done to conform with naming conventions established for current Battletech line.
