================================================================================================
Overview:
    The Gargantuan was the result of an attempt by The Tech Factory staff to take advantage of
    new 4 legged 'Mech rules, and design the most heavily armored 'Mech in existence. By
    definition, the 'Mech had to be a quad, yet to come up with a "nasty" 'Mech, it was only
    feasible as a clan design - where ferro fibrous and endo steel could be used with little
    pain. Furthermore, Clan double heat sinks could be used in the legs.

Capabilities:
    By mounting four large pulse lasers aided by a targeting computer, the Gargantuan is able to
    strip nearly any battlemech of its' center torso in one turn. Twenty double heat sinks allow
    the 'Mech to run and fire all four large pulse lasers without any concern of heat buildup.
    The ECM Suite helps protect the 'Mech from long range bombardment by Artemis assisted LRMs.
