================================================================================================
Overview:
    A totemic QuadVee of Clan Hell's Horses, the NightMare was introduced in 3147 as a line
    'Mech to complement already-existing QuadVees. The decision was made to make it a standard
    'Mech instead of an OmniMech to make it easier to standardize the parts.
    
    The 'Mech's name was chosen as a double-meaning of being a mare of the night (to reflect its
    totemic nature) as well as to say it will be a nightmare for its opponents.

Capabilities:
    The NightMare 2 variant uses two ER PPCs as its main weapons, while having a Flamer to
    handle infantry and overheat enemy 'Mechs. This necessitated removing 2 tons of armor to fit
    14 double heat sinks to keep waste heat generation in acceptable margins. The 'Mech overall
    is considered a sniper due to not having much close-in potential.
