================================================================================================
Overview:
    With heavy losses in the ongoing Dark Age, any new mech that could enter the field was
    valuable. Meanwhile, the advent of the re-engineered lasers devalued specialized armors and
    meant an all-energy mech was once again feasible. When these facts intersected, the 4M
    variant was borne.

Capabilities:
    A modernized variant of the classical ANV-3M, the ANV-4M removes the jump jets for
    additional light ferro-fibrous armor, while replacing both large pulse and medium standard
    lasers with re-engineered variants. Overall, this adds range and damage but loses some
    accuracy and costs more heat. A light fusion engine provides enough space for two more heat
    sinks.

Deployment:
    Dependent as the design is on Davion weaponry and Marik Mech chassis, the 4M is
    understandably rare. Its freedom from supply lines and ability to bypass more specialized
    units means those mercenary units who can build one treasure them dearly, and rumors persist
    of attempts to trade the parts across Capellan space by Corean Enterprises.
