================================================================================================
Overview:
    The Black Locust is an Upgrade available to the Mech Pilots of the Steel Scorpions Mercenary
    Unit.  Replacing the ER Large Laser, with 4 ER Medium Lasers gave this mech a better damage
    curve. One of the 4 ER Medium Lasers are mounted to the rear of the Mech, to discurage rear
    assailents.

Capabilities:
    Because this Mech is eqiuped with a Targeting Computer, its 3 forward Facing weapons are
    easily able to hit desired locations on enemy Mechs. The rear mounted laser is also Tied
    into the Mechs Targeting Computer, and enjoys all the same bonuses. The Targeting Computer,
    combined with the this Mechs Speed makes it an excellent recon or hunter/killer for light
    Mechs.
    
    
    
    This Design was first to be used on Kuranto Five, when the Steel Scorpions were hired to
    eleminate hostile forces, a rebellion against the Draconis Combine. The mech performed
    beyond expectations.

Deployment:
    only four of these mechs exist, and are currently mixed with other Light and Medium mechs
    assigned to Delta Company.
