================================================================================================
Overview:
    The Roaring Beast was manufactured just before the Clan Invasion on Tokasha for Clan Ghost
    Bear, with production rights soon after being acquired by Clan Jade Falcon in a Trial of
    Possession. Its true baptism by fire would be Operation REVIVAL itself, where it would earn
    the codename "Tonfa" for its arm weapon mounts from the Free Rasalhague Republic's first
    encounters with it.

Capabilities:
    The Roaring Beast is intended as a maneuverable front-line unit, using its Jump Jets to
    change distance as needed. From a distance twin ER PPCs can hammer the enemy, and up close
    it brings to bear a swarm of SRMs; a Medium Pulse Laser on a directional mount provides
    emergency defense. This gives it a great degree of versatility, making it a dangerous
    opponent for any Spheroid. The only real issues are some exposed actuators (including the
    directional mount for the pulse laser), and it being able to overheat even with various
    measures taken to ensure it doesn't burst into flames.
    
    DESIGN QUIRKS: Battlefists (LA/RA), Combat Computer, Directional Torso Mount (AP Gauss
    Rifle), Exposed Actuators, Exposed Weapon Linkage (AP Gauss Rifle)

Deployment:
    Both the Federated Commonwealth and the Free Rasalhague Republic had to contend with the
    Tonfa during the Clan Invasion, appearing in the Jade Falcon and Ghost Bear corridors
    respectively. It would later become a mainstay of the Ghost Bear (later Rasalhague)
    Dominion's touman.
