================================================================================================
Variants:
    The Savannah Master is a design known for decades for its speed and effectiveness in swarm
    attacks. When engineers finally decided to test how far they could go to enhance this aspect
    of the design hour making sacrifices in other areas, the Savannah Master (XL) was born.
    
    Using the reflective armor model as a basis, the engineers began with a switch to an
    extralight engine, and then increased the size of the engine in increments until a fusion
    core with more mass was needed. The sweet spot was found at a type 45 XL engine. This core
    grants the machine a cruising speed of over 180 kph, and can reach flank speeds of nearly
    300 kph. They also decided to make it hit harder by mounting a clan-tech improved medium
    heavy laser.

Oh please bring a swarm of these. Bombs and artillery are already the solution. Now they work twice as fast. And you still cant hit anything at altitude 5.

Depends on if the game allows conventional or aerospace fighters and/or artillery.

Besides, those work against most other units as well (except subsurface ones).

Even swarmier units.
Mines.
Mortars.
Battle armor with medium pulse pasers.
Trees.

Pity that mordel doesn't do BA. I cooked up a nasty assault suit derived from the Corona.

But yes, you created a terrible wee beasty.
