================================================================================================
Overview:
Although many saw the Arion as a decent harasser, it was well known that it could be more
effective. Rather than scrap the design outright, it was decided that an extra light engine
would be fitted that would provide increased ground speed, as well as allowing more than
double the armor to be mounted. The Arion 2 was quickly accepted, and has proven its worth
in several battles.

I don't always like just throwing an XL engine into a design. But I think anything that is meant to be fast, needs to have one. Otherwise it is never fast enough, or never armored enough. _________________ Mordel Blacknight - Site Administrator
