================================================================================================
Overview:
    Melee oriented "punch bots" are a popular tactical choice in limited engagements.  And over
    the years we've come up with a fairly standardized set of solutions.  What hasnt
    standardized is the ideal ratio between speed and mass.  This leads to the unusual situation
    where an entire series of what should be different mechs all have the same name, George
    Forman.

Capabilities:
    At 60 tons, this George Forman is one of the cheapest models available.  Not that cheap is
    the best way to describe any George Forman.   As with all George Formans, the mech uses an
    XL engine to achieve higher speeds.  Medium pulse lasers are the core weapon system,
    secondary weapons are missile based, and of course the unit is equiped with an efficient TSM
    system.  The combination gives a unit faster then it has any right to be, capable of
    covering its own advance, and providing withering firepower and devastating blows at short
    range.

Variants:
    Historically LRM-10s were used before they were replaced by the MMLs.  There were also some
    experiments using long ranged energy weapons instead of missiles.  Those have been phased
    out of the George Forman family.
