"The KGC-double-oh-one, I was reading about it on Outreach. 'Clanbuster', Mechwarriors are calling the variant. Trades the autocannons for gauss rifles, swaps the laser for a pulse model, and crams four SRM tubes into the extra space left behind. Almost triples effective range for only a 25% drop in damage, practically no heat issues, and a decent short-range punch if they get in under the rifles. For a field refit, it's a huge upgrade, and if actual Clanner mechs are proportionately dangerous as those little hopping toad suits, that sort of reach might be the only thing that'll match them.<br/><br/>"But I can't do it. Not yet at least. For reasons you couldn't even begin to understand, I can't make those kinds of radical changes to Tanya. Not without some advice, and the only person on this ship who could give it is still doing an excellent imitation of Illiushini cheese in sickbay."
