================================================================================================
Overview:
    The Gravewalker is an extremely sluggish medium BattleMech, lugging around firepower that
    rivals even those of some assault 'mechs.

Capabilities:
    The Gravewalker has a max speed of 54 km/h, making it slowest medium BattleMech to have ever
    been devised and produced on a relatively large scale. Three jump jets allow the 'mech to
    leap 90 meters, which partially counteracts the 'mech's poor mobility in dense terrain. It
    carries two PPCs and can fire them repeatedly with no heat buildup in most situations.
    However, the lack of secondary close-range weapons combined with its slow speed meant that
    the Gravewalker ended up being very unpopular among MechWarriors, as it was near defenseless
    if caught at close range, without having the speed to withdraw.

Variants:
    GWL-441: This variant swaps out 5 heat sinks for an equal amount of medium lasers, giving it
    a devastating close-range punch though sacrificing the ability to repeatedly fire its
    weapons without heat buildup.
