================================================================================================
Overview:
    During the invasion, many Inner Sphere commanders concluded that the best way to fight the
    Clans was to assign front-line troops advanced equipment and to place them in front of the
    incoming juggernaut.
    
    This method, used by both the Federated Commonwealth and the Draconis Combine, left
    many borders short-changed in manpower and equipment. Local governments everywhere raised
    their concerns. One of the loudest in the F-C was Duke Aaron Sandoval, leader of the
    Draconis March. Unable and unwilling to return front-line units, Prince Davion quieted the
    Old Duke by sending him older equipment and training units. Hanse Davion also invited Duke
    Sandoval to share the cost of retooling a factory to produce the Watchman, an inexpensive
    BattleMech suited for defense and training.

Capabilities:
    Hanse Davion required that the design of the new 'Mech be based on a current model to reduce
    the capital investment. In no time, the old Enforcer was chosen as the basis for the design.
    As most of the factories that built Enforcers had already been upgraded to the new
    technology, huge stores of older parts were available.
    
    
    
    The cockpit controls were simplified, to facilitate instruction of inexperienced
    MechWarriors. The Enforcer's armor was replaced with Starshield A armor with CASE and the
    old McCloud Special jump jets were replaced by the more popular and less costly Hidco Model
    12s, which permit the 'Mech to jump 150 meters. These changes lowered the weight of the
    completed design to 40 tons.
    
    This new model is for customers who heavy fire power in the medium range band, and double
    strength heat sinks and TSM that come with new weapons systems.
