================================================================================================
Overview:
    Produced in enormous haste in response to the Clan Invasion, this variant of the Pike is
    fitted with a pair of deadly Gauss Rifles splitting three tons of ammunition between them
    rather than the usual weapon load, and a CASE system to manage any capacitor blow-out. Three
    tons of armor had to be removed to accommodate this, but this was considered reasonable
    given the expected unit lifetime in the face of the Clans did not substantially decrease
    from the change.
