Overview:

       This 'Mech was designed in 3020 by Dr Catherine Lawrence, a researcher working at Defiance Industries.   She had seen the Davion Rifleman prototypes, and felt that there was something worth pursuing, but that the Rifleman chassis was simply unsuited to such a heavy weapons load.
       The first prototypes were constructed in 3021-3022, but internal politics, combined with pressure from House Davion to adopt its competing Rifleman variant, caused the test results to be hushed up.
       The few prototypes were quietly distributed to units of House Steiner, where reports were mostly favourable.
