================================================================================================
Overview:
    Nicknamed the "Light Hammer" or "Mallet" by its detractors, the Liúx?ng Chuí is a basic
    and simple trooper mech that's rugged, reliable, meets all the basic requirements, and is
    easy to maintain for logistical reasons.

Capabilities:
    Some advanced materials were used such as Endo Steel, Double Heat Sinks, and Ferro Fibrous
    in order to provide a low cost, 6.3 million c-bill war machine with nearly max armor,
    adequate speed, and high endurance.
    
    No ammo adds further savings as the design is armed with only two weapons, albeit they are
    arguably one of the most popular weapons amongst mechwarriors, twin ER PPCs. Good range,
    good damage, but highly predictable, there are no thrills here.
    
    Curiously a C3 Slave is added in the head which leads many to believe that the unit is
    simply meant to be a cheap bodyguard. As a throwback to the popular WHM-7M, the Slave unit
    can easily be switched out for a Dual Cockpit, allowing some extra use as a training mech.
    
    Both hands are also retained as a way to provide some utility off the field.

Deployment:
    Despite how basic the design appears, it's low costs and various strengths has garnered the
    attention of several militias and mercenaries.

Variants:
    Nearly all variants involve removing the Slave unit, with the most popular replacements
    being a TAG, Flamer, or ER Medium Laser.
