Overview:
    I want to like Crusaders more than I do. They look cool. Their classic weapon loadout is
    varied enough to be interesting.
    
    Generally under-performing, though. Maybe I'm biased because the last time I used one, I
    think, was the bone-stock 3R model in the Snord's Irregulars scenario pack, where it came
    permanently pre-damaged in a way that made it suck.
    
    Here, we have a factory upgrade for the general market straight from Kallon Industries.
    Pretty much one-for-one on new tech: Pulse Lasers over regular, Artemis LRMs, and Quadruple
    Streak missiles still in the legs. There's still a bomb in its chest, though. Try to empty
    it quickly.
    
    Single Heat Sinks, but it's fine.
