================================================================================================
Overview:
    The crowning achievement of Tamarind-Abby's early IlClan era military expansion efforts
    would be the Theseus TES-1A. The lead company for the project would end up being Westover
    Battlemechs. A company built from the ashes of Free Worlds Defense Industries. Seeking to
    assert itself into the Free Worlds League market and watching the military industrial build
    up in the Duchy of Tamarind-Abby the company would lobby Fontaine Marik hard for the
    privilege of constructing the crown jewel of Fontaine's military expansion efforts.
    Westover's indirect but questionable ties to Word of Blake elements and location outside of
    the Duchy would give Fontaine pause but in the end he would be able to negotiate a favorable
    contract with the company binding them into a complex partnership with Venkateswara, where
    most of the construction for the mech would take place on Westover with final assembly on
    Tamarind.
    The Theseus would embrace the flexibility, mobility, and utility desired by military
    planners in the Duchy. With a serious and growing concern towards the evolving situation
    along the border with the Wolf Empire and ongoing events in the Clan Protectorate the use of
    clan procured equipment would be openly avoided. Upon release onto the battlefields of the
    Innersphere the Theseus TUS-1A would find itself slotted into a wide variety of lances
    thanks to its ability to contribute across a multitude of rolls.

Capabilities:
    The Theseus TES-1A would feature an endo-composite structure encasing an XL engine to clear
    tonnage. The 300 XL engine would allow the mech to normally move up to 64 km/h however this
    would be enhanced with the addition of a super charger pushing the maximum speed to 85 km/h
    when engaged. The installment of 4 jumps jets would further push the mobility of the design.
    The TES-1A's weapons complement would include a plasma rifle in the left arm supplied with 2
    tons of ammo stored alongside it. A heavy PPC in the right torso, and a pair of SRM 4's
    mounted into the left torso supported with two tons of CASE II protected ammo. Finally, a
    TAG would be mounted into the center-torso. For protection the mech would be wrapped in 13
    tons of standard plate (208 pips). Advanced protective measures would be found in the
    addition of a head mounted anti-missile system supported by one ton of ammo and an angel ecm
    suite located in the right torso. 16 double heat-sinks would be employed for cooling.
