Overview:
    "I fear no mech.  But that - that thing scares me."
    ~Captain Antov Kane of the Black Hand.
    
    "Hudda hudda huuh!"
    ~traditional Pyromaniac pilot battle cry.

Capabilities:
    The Pyromaniac is what happens when IPD decides to make a point.  The Black Hand was a,
    pardon the expression,  Black Swan event in an independent star empire in the shield wall.
    Peaceful and out of the way, there had never been a need to absorb them and they were decent
    trade partners.   The Black Swan event was a cultist uprising.  A religious order that
    started out helping the poor eventually turned into a coup, violently taking control of the
    government, and rather ruthlessly executing anyone who would not convert.  Heavy flamers
    were their prefered tool for this purpose.  So far, not good.  IPD responded with
    humanitarian resources, offering evacuation for those who wished to leave.  The Black Hand
    chose to prevent this offer, mobilizing a full military response and stepping up their
    pogrom.  They didn't realize IPD was not making a request, and had a sense of irony.

Deployment:
    "Even when still they're unnerving.  They just stand there, unmoving, except for the nozels
    on the flamers.  They independently track.  They twitch about, looking for something to
    incinerate.  And if you move or make a noise, suddenly they're all focused on you for an
    instant."
    ~Antov Kane, Prisoner and extreme burn victim recounting the last days of the Black Hand.
