================================================================================================
Overview:
    The Bronze was built to supplement the need for a cheap, reliable and easily maintained
    combat command vehicle. The engineers designed it so that it was both tough to take down and
    easy to repair. Much of the mech is done with easily obtained components. All the mechs
    weapons can easily be replaced with battle field salvage, the armor
    and internals was also done so that it could easily be replaced.

Capabilities:
    Built on the same premise of the Battlemaster the Bronze was designed to be a command mech
    for heavy lances. The mech has a variety of weapons to operate at any range.
    
    The mechs DSC BlueBolt ppc mounted in the left arm is much like that of the Battlemasters.
    The gun may be ejected if it is destroyed so that the pilot can make full use of the hand
    assembly. The mechs other arm mounts its most advance weapon. The Blankenburg Large pulse
    laser aptly complements the PPC and can easily justify its cost with destructive power. The
    FarFire LRM 10 pack mounted on the mechs right shoulder give it some softening up power.
    This weapon is usualy used while closing with a target. Many times two full salvos can be
    fired before the mech closes to bring its large energy weapons to bear. For close in defense
    the mech mounts two Kreiger standard Medium lasers. These help keep the heat generated by
    the mech down and allows the pilot to worry more about, what to shoot next, than which
    weapons he needs to not shoot to keep from shutting down.
    
    The mechs twelve tons of DSC standard armor give it enough staying ability to see most
    fights end.

Deployment:
    A number of Bronze have gone to mercenary companies, while more prominent houses have also
    made there interest in the unit know. Many will likely be going into the ranks of the SLDF
    as field command vehicles.
