================================================================================================
Overview:
    The Word of Blake's Bolla Stealth Tank was designed during the early part of the Jihad as
    part of the Serpentus Series of OmniVehicles. The Bolla's inception was made possible from
    salvage of Capellan stealth vehicles in 3069 and was first seen in combat in 3072. The tank
    was designed to support cybernetically enhanced infantry of the Manei Domini and produced by
    Krupp Armament Works on Terra.
    
    The tank made its first appearance in combat on Galatea with elements of the 47th Shadow
    Division assisting pacification of the planet. The tank with its flexible OmniPod weaponry
    and its stealth capacities took allied mercenary forces by surprise during the conflict. It
    proved to be invaluable in allowing the 11th Division to regroup during fighting outside
    Galatea City against the coalition forces' drive to push the Blakist forces from the
    planet.[1]
    
    Featuring fifteen and half tons of pod space, the Bolla's fixed equipment includes a C3i
    Computer, Guardian ECM Suite, six ton capacity Infantry Compartment and ten heat sinks.
    
    After the Jihad, many of these vehicles fell into the hands of Coalition Allies, and the
    Armed Forces of the newly formed Republic of the Sphere. The Republic, liking the vehicle's
    performance, had it redesigned to their specific needs, making a new version by 3084

Variants:
    Primary Configuration ("Invictus")
    That configuration used a mix of advanced electronic equipment and weapons to support the
    infantry. An Improved C3 CPU provided allied units with targeting information, because the
    crew used the onboard Guardian ECM to hide their presence on the battlefield. 2 Machine Guns
    paired with 2 MML 9 launchers supplied the infantry with sufficient fire support when
    needed.
    
    Alternate Configuration A ("Dominus")
    The Dominus includes twin Light AC/5 Class Autocannons with forty rounds of ammunition
    shared between them. A single Heavy Flamer with 20 rounds of ammunition is carried for
    anti-infantry support.
    
    Alternate Configuration B ("Infernus")
    The Infernus configuration is built around a trio of Streak SRM 6 Launchers with 30 rounds
    of ammunition.
    
    Alternate Configuration C ("Comminus")
    As a Sniper configuration for the tank, the Comminus features a single Light Gauss Rifle
    with 32 rounds of ammunition. The vehicle was given an anti-missile system to protect it
    from incoming missile attacks. Its ammunition bay carries 12 rounds for the system.
