Overview:
    Micheal Henderson, after much consideration decided that if Henderson Armaments was to
    become a premier military contractor that they would have to move away from their roots of
    customizing older models to fit a new generation of MechWarrior and build their own flagship
    'Mech. That Mech is to the Athena. The criteria for this flagship of Henderson Armaments new
    age were for speed to enable to it keep up with almost any enemy, yet the firepower to be a
    threat to any Mech in its weight class and above. The Athena was named after the Greek
    Goddess of war Athena. The Mechs physical appearance also carries over into it's greko-roman
    naming. For the head images of the statue of Athena in Athens was used, Creating a Mech with
    a unique look to it. Almost as if a Mythical goddess has come down from mount Olympus.

Capabilities:
    Unlike it's namesake this Athena doesn't carry a sword and a shield. Instead the ATH-N1
    Athena carries s it's spear a Federated 5-Shot LRM 5 as it's spear and instead of a shield
    it inherited a little of the "Zeus" touch so to speak with it's Ion Blaze ER PPC. For when
    an engagement closes to shorter ranges the Athena carries 4 Blazefire Longshot ER Medium
    Lasers. This combination of long and short weapons allows the Athena to engage the enemy
    beginning at ranges of up to 690 meters and effectively engage the enemy all the way up to
    point blank range with a damage potential that increases for every meter the Athena can get
    closer.

Deployment:
    Currently there are no Athenas deployed with the Regular armies of any houses. At this
    moment the Athena is undergoing it's final field tests at Henderson Armaments' proving
    grounds. The Athena should see initial deployment with the AFFS in the spring of 3068
