================================================================================================
Overview:
    Always looked upon as a poor man's Warhammer, the Thunderbolt is a durable and tough design.

Capabilities:
    Upgrading the long range firepower of the Thunderbolt was made possible by the addition of
    an XL engine, endosteel structure and double heatsinks. The LRM 15 remains but is augmented
    by an Artemis IV FCS. The old laser system in the RA has been removed entirely and replaced
    with a gauss rifle. While reducing the length of time away from ammo supplies, the increase
    in range, damage, and heat efficiency has been worth the offset. The trio of mediums have
    been reduced to a pair and the SRM 2 has been removed as have the twin MG's in the LA. The
    MG's were replaced by small lasers. The remaining space saved has been taken up by a C3
    command computer. The armor has also been upgraded to 13 tons and a CASE system was included
    to house the LRM ammo.

Deployment:
    So far there have been no sightings of this varient in the field, though they are being
    produced in small numbers. It is thought that this mech would be placed in the vanguard of a
    heavy company.
