================================================================================================
Overview:
    The Clans were proud of the Black Knight, and their return to the Inner Sphere sparked a
    desire to invest in their Star League roots. The Black Knight IIC was born out of this
    desire, and proved highly effective. While it lacks the speciality command equipment such as
    C3 or command consoles, its improved communication suite is entirely sufficient for use in
    REVIVAL and arguably overkill for Trials-type individual combat.

Capabilities:
    The engine is upgraded to XL and all weapons are upgraded to ER, all Clan-spec. Notably, the
    chassis is downgraded to standard and the right arm ER medium laser moved to the left arm,
    both to provide room for the enormous array of twenty-seven double heat sinks. Finally heat
    neutral but with no room for any additional equipment, a spare ton and a half are invested
    in armor to compensate for the XL engine?s vulnerability.

Deployment:
    In order to maintain easy production, the Black Knight IIC uses equipment largely taken from
    other IIC designs, primarily the Warhammer IIC.
