------------------------------------------------------------------------------
==Overview:==
The Colossus. A potent arena fighter, but largely useless in actual combat due
to the limited range of its weapons and the dangerous nature of the coolant
pods. Sadly, it wasn't until several mechwarriors died in battle that the
realization was made this just wasn't going to work.

Seeing this problem, the decision was made to produce a version of the
Colossus that *would* work in a combat situation.

Effective and simple upgrade. I like it. Always thought the coolant pods were a little too volatile with the rules given in the Solaris VII boxed set. Now lets see a remake of the Juggernaut.

To me, a lot of the arena mechs had potential but were pretty much useless in real combat.

If you go back through the archives, you'll see updates I did for the Daedalus, Paladin, Morpheus, and Tsunami. Alternatively, if you PM me I can send you the info for them.
