================================================================================================
Overview:
    Created to be an affordable skirmishing trooper by D&K Creation Studios, in thanks part to
    assisting in founding a mercenary company in "Sequere Nos", the Gaius is as much an
    exploration of the use of turrets as it is a product of proper war fighting design. One
    meant to fill holes in defensive lines, to slot into most lances and allow for more
    flexibility as its nature as a medium 'mech allows.

Capabilities:
    The Gaius 9A, like the rest of its batch brethren, was created to be a refit of the chassis
    to take it to more expensive, as well as different heights. In this case, its main change
    beyond its same rated extra-light engine was to change its armoring to 10.5 tons of standard
    armor, as well as to rip out its weaponry in its entirety and to instead mount a Heavy PPC
    in its shoulder turret, one armed with a capacitor and linked to a targeting computer. To
    back up this weapon system and ot give it greater synergy with its sister chassis the
    Celosia, it mounts two MML 3 systems fed by a total of two tons of ammunition, one mounted
    in either arm.
