================================================================================================
Overview:
    The FUS-1B Fusillade is a new BattleMech design created for the Taurian Concordat. The
    Fusillade's primary attraction is its price. For a mere 6.3 million C-Bills, the Fusillade
    has acceptable speed, exceptional armor, and impressive firepower. The Fusillade is built
    according to the most modern military logic, which states that BattleMechs with high amounts
    of unsustainable firepower are the most economical way to fight. The Administrative Corps
    believes that the Fusillade will usher in a new era of Taurian military strength. The FUS-1B
    is a variant of the 1A. The 1B has much more firepower, ad at a longer range, but is more
    difficult to maintain. Its plethora of launchers also cause targeting problems.

Capabilities:
    The Fusillade uses the cutting edge of military technology - forty two Rocket Launcher 10s.
    These advanced weapons allow the Fusillade to deploy an extreme amount of firepower in a
    short amount of time. The rocket launchers also permit the Fusillade to deploy smaller
    bursts of firepower, but for a longer period. This flexibility is another major advantage of
    the Fusillade design. The Fusillade also mounts a large laser in its chest and a medium
    laser in its head. Although impressive, these laser weapons are strictly secondary, and are
    used only as a last resort.

Deployment:
    The Fusillade is currently being test deployed to the Taurian Guard, based on Taurus. The
    'Mech has not been well received by warriors, and the Administrative Corps is currently
    attempting to discover the reasons for the poor reception of this excellent machine.
