================================================================================================
Overview:
    The Mauler is the Federated Commonwealth codename for a Kurita assault 'Mech just beginning
    testing at the proving grounds of Luthien Armor Works.  The Draconis Combine has high
    security surrounding this project, and all information is a combination of unconfirmed
    reports, speculation, and analysis.  Not even Our Blessed Order knows the official Kurita
    designation for this design.
    
    Best intelligence expects the design to be slow but advanced, using an extra-light
    engine, Ferro-Fibrous armor, and double heat sinks.  Several prototypes have been seen, but
    only in glimpses.  Only once has ComStar been able to obtain a photograph for detailed
    study.
    
    This particular model employs double Victory Nickel Alloy Extended-Range Large Lasers,
    one in each arm.  It also has four Imperator Smoothie-2 Autocannon in the torso, two on each
    side.  Each side of the torso also appears to have a Shigunga Long Range Missile 15-Rack,
    doubtless also with Cellular Ammunition Storage Equipment for the missile reloads.
