================================================================================================
Overview:
    An attempt to improve the offensive capabilities of the 1DS resulted in the addition of two
    Medium Pulse Lasers, the removal of some excess heat sinks, the addition of Endo Steel
    structure and the slight loss of armor. The LRM20 was upgraded with Artemis IV systems
    allowing for higher damage output. Lastly the jump jets were moved out of the torso section
    in order to allow the ammunition to be stored with the launcher. The mech can certainly run
    hot but only when all features are being used at once. Outside of that heat buildup is
    marginal, and thus the goal to increase combat power came to be a success.
