================================================================================================
Overview:
    The primary heavy OmniMech of Tribe Thane, the Thanatos, is designed to be able to carry out
    almost any duty in any conditions. Due to the relatively small size of Tribe Thane, this
    multifunctionality is a necessity, since the Tribe cannot afford to maintain multiple
    different 'Mech types or support the required number of pilots. Instead, Thane only needs to
    fund the upkeep of a few variants and the necessary OmniPods for each, drastically cutting
    personnel and logistical requirements. The Thanatos proved reasonably effective against
    Equestria and was codenamed Spearhead by the defenders for its widespread use by Tribe Thane
    as a breakthrough 'Mech, which was initially misinterpreted as a Thane tactical choice
    instead of a choice made because of a lack of resources.
    
    The Thanatos PRIME is a jack-of-all-trades 'Mech with a focus on long-range combat. Its
    Gauss Rifle and Large Laser can engage targets at range, while the Medium and Small Lasers
    allow it to take apart brawlers or light 'Mechs if they get too close. The PRIME is the
    oldest and most common Thanatos configuration.
