Overview:
    Once upon a time there was supposed to be a 3 ton Glider protomech moving at 18/27.  It
    carried no weapons, instead using its rather pitiful frenzy attack to do any damage.  The
    only saving grace was the use of a whole 2 points of electric discharge armor so it could at
    least act as a laser every few turns.  It was known as the Tooth Fairy.

Capabilities:
    You can't have Glider protomech that aren't ultra heavy...  so it's a good thing Quad
    protomechs use basically the same math. Poof it's a quad.  I shall name it the Cwn Annwn,
    after the hell hounds that accompany the wild hunt!  (I'm still going to call it the Tooth
    Fairy...)
    
    Minor changes result in a technically higher top speed while freeing up just enough tonnage
    for a few bits more spare armor.

Deployment:
    So how to use this is simple.  Don't.  Unless you're using it in the environment it was
    designed for, Alpha Strike.
    
    In alpha strike protomechs can do 1 point of physical damage which is a massive boost
    compared to what they can do under Total Warfare.  This is then combined with their high
    speed to not only get in range but to attack the rear doubling their damage output.  The
    high speed also makes them hard to hit giving a +5 modifier.  Being a protomech gives
    another +1.  And if light gliders were a thing that would of given another +1.  Still, even
    without being a Glider the odds of being hit are fairly low.  And this is where you give
    your opponent a dillema.  Shoot at the hard to hit thing and potentially waste a ton of
    firepower,  or go after main targets and be whittled away while distracted.
