------------------------------------------------------------------------------
==Overview:==
Named after a fierce, poisonus type of desert lizard, the Monitor is slated
to take over as the main recon mech for the DCMS (even though the Arkab Legion
will be getting the bulk of the first shipment, however).
For its reconnassaince mission, it is well-armed, well-armored, and has a
considerable array of electronics. On the same chassis we have an ECM, a BAP,
a C3, and a TAG. Three medium lasers, five small lasers (two of which are
rear-firing), and an SRM 2 provide for a considerable amount of sting for a
"recon" mech. In addition, the mech has near-maximum armor, allowing it to
take as much as it can dish out. Time will tell if the DCMS' faith in the
machine is well-placed.

The electronics suite is nice, but it seems a bit slow for the reconaissance role. Armor is good, bu the weapons are a bit short ranged, especially the small lasers. Which brings us back to its relatively slow speed.
