================================================================================================
Overview:
    The desperation to 'please' the empereror Amaris led to many 'wonder weapons', many of which
    were destined to be utter disasters.   Attempts to build a super heavy mech based on an
    enlarged Marauder chassis failed miserably.  However, desperation breeds necesity - in this
    case the engineers scaled down the chassis (losing the original legs) downgrading the mech
    to an assault scale mech instead.

Capabilities:
    Based on the original Marauder, the MADAA (or Madder as its pilots called it) retains a lot
    of the classic profile of the original MAD.  Its arms mount two standard PPC's and a Gauss
    Rifle replaces the original AC/5.  Quite a standard refit in many ways.
    However, for closer ranged work, it also mounts two snub noses ppc's mounted in the hips of
    the mech.  The placement is due to the large amount of space taken up by the 18 double heat
    sinks that allow it to manage most of its heat commitments.

Deployment:
    Despite attempts to ramp up to a full production line, the MADAA only acheived a very
    limited pre-production run of seven working models.  All were thought to be lost during
    shipping but Comstar discovered a disassembled unit during its take over of Terra following
    the dissolution of the Star Leage.
