------------------------------------------------------------------------------
==Overview:==
The Panther MKII is a modified, clan version of the Panther, pre-omni mech. It
is generic and all clans use it still to some extend, as a garrison mech. It
has nearly the same appearance, except for its head which loses its 'Panther
Face' in lieu of a new head that looks somewhere between a Wasp and a
Valkyrie. The cockpit itself is farily small, due to the ECM device mounted in
its head.
==Capabilities:==
The heart of the Panther MKII is its ERPPC, in its Right Arm. While the clans
are not meele fighters, this Panther's PPC barrel is heavily reinforced due to
an early design flaw involving the ERPPC melting the lower arm actuator,
causing it to freeze up. However, interestingly enough, a lance worth of these
were captured by the DCMS on a counter-raid on Wolcott.
An ECM Suite provides electronic cover for the Mech. Its jumpjets provide a
nasty surprise for those who aren't used to jumping Panthers. The mech
carriers a full coating of Ferros Fiber to protect it. In its torso, in lieu
of the SRMs, it carriers 2 ER Medium Lasers, but it is notable that these
would provide more firepower and more consistancy than SRMs, plus they cant
run out of ammo.
==Deployment==
The Panther MKII is deployed in all clans in limitied numbers. The DCMS ones
are all deployed in the Genoshya.

im not too sure about an XL engine on a 2nd liner though, seems alittle expensive  But then its MKII which can mean another redesign so i cant fault it here.
The weapons are decent but i will miss the crit seeking punch of the SRMs.

| Well, I figured that the XL engine wouldn't kill the cost too badly. As for who redesigned it, it could have been anybody, but I'd bet this was a Nova Cat design...
