================================================================================================
Overview:
    The Cerberus is the lightest of the Hell Cat series. It also carries the best long-range
    firepower of the series. It was designed as a general-purpose 'Mech, possessing considerable
    firepower at all ranges. It's an ideal design for an Americal Division front line unit.

Capabilities:
    The Cerberus may appear to be lacking speed. This, however, is compensated for by the
    addition of a supercharger which allows the 'Mech to execute short bursts of high speed in
    emergency situations. Its exclusive use of pulse weaponry combined with a targeting computer
    and an iC3 computer gives it deadly accuracy, allowing it to cause effective damage at all
    ranges.
    Its primary purpose is to provide long-range cover fire for faster, up-close units, then
    closing to medium range to deliver a coup de grace with all its weaponry. Its secondary
    purpose is for fast "hit-and-fade" operations. It can charge in using its supercharger,
    deliver one or two volleys of incredibly accurate fire, and fade back to cover again, using
    its supercharger to get there quickly. It excels in these roles.
