================================================================================================
Overview:
    The Rising Star is relatively unknown Star League era BattleMech that went onto serve as the
    basis of the Word of Blake's Legacy.

Capabilities:
    The Rising Star was built around a standard Pitban 240 fusion engine and heavy armor,
    features the later Legacy retained. Offensively the Rising Star mounted a single standard
    autocannon instead of the dual Ultra autocannon/10s the Legacy carried

Deployment:
    Entering service with the Star League, the Rising Star was produced in limited numbers
    before being discontinued due to poor performance in battle.

Variants:
    The Legacy was produced as a testbed for new technologies, including the Ultra autocannon/10
    and improved C3 computer, at the request of Word of Blake Precentor Martial Cameron St.
    Jamais.

Notable MechWarriors:
    Geoffrey Zucker (Legacy LGC-03)
