================================================================================================
Overview:
    Wanted to see exactly how fearsome a QuadVee could be, Clan Hell?s Horses scientists
    implemented studies that would result in a 100 ton monster named the Euros. Although not
    very fast in either ?Mech or tank mode, this machine can bring pain and misery to those it
    faces.

Capabilities:
    Trying for maximum payload and maximum armor, the Euros is, at best, only average for its
    size in speed, clocking in at a maximum 54 mph at a run/flank movement. However, this small
    engine and the endo-composite frame of the design result in an Omni design with 34 tons of
    Pod space; far more than any previous QuadVee. The main problem is the limited space for
    this payload. Each machine has also been equipped with an advanced combat computer, but
    these components tend to be hard to maintain.
    
    Knowing this issue, the primary configuration mounts a centerline extended range PPC,
    supported by Gauss rifles on either side. These hard hitting weapons are each equipped with
    two tons of ammunition, allowing the machine to hang in for extended battles.
    
    Alternate configuration A has been geared for more versatile combat with two Extended Range
    Large Lasers and two LRM-15 racks fed by two tons of ammunition each providing long range
    capability, while closer targets can be assaulted by 6 medium pulse lasers and a single
    short range Streak missile four pack with one ton of ammunition.
    
    Alternate configuration B mounts a HAG/30 on one side fed by four tons of ammunition mounted
    opposite with a pair of large pulse lasers. To provide more long range firepower, an
    extended range large laser is centrally mounted along with an ECM suite.
    
    Other configurations are expected in coming months, but these are all that have this far
    been confirmed.

Deployment:
    Expensive to build, but effective in battle, the Euros is slowly been provided to assault
    units.
