After reading my new .PDF copy of Max-Tech (I'm slowly-but-surely collecting .PDFs of Battletech manuals. They're easier to get than hardcopies ), I set out to make an armless 'mech. Here it is.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
==Overview:==
The Castillan is the lead 'mech in a light stable on Solaris VII, Lopez'
Lightnings. The 'mech itself is quite old, but for some reason has retained
its lead position for the entire time it has been in the stable. Rumor has it
that the stable's founder, Allison Lopez, constructed the 'mech, and that she
issued an edict for all the stable managers that followed her to keep the
Castillan in the #1 slot.
==Capabilities:==
The Castillan is considered by most to be nothing particularly special,
carrying armament typical of a 'mech its' size. While the 'mech does best up
close, like almost all light 'mechs, it does carry an LRM system, giving the
pilot an option to hang back and bombard the target.
The Diverse Optics lasers were originally mounted in the 'mechs arms, but when
those were shot away during a particularly harsh duel, the lasers were
re-mounted in the torso and the remnants of the arms removed.
