================================================================================================
Overview:
The Storm heavy tank is a smaller, yet more protected, design similar to the Schrek PPC
Carrier. With one less PPC and weighing twenty tons lighter, the Storm makes its mark by
being more protected than the Schrek, with fifteen tons of armor compared to the Schrek's
measly seven tons. A more protected vehicle with a cheaper and with only the expense of a
third of the Schrek's firepower was seen as a deal in the Inner Sphere market, and soon the
Storm was sold all across the Inner Sphere.
Capabilities:
The Storm is armed with a pair of PPCs, excellent for engaging enemies at a distance. Its
fifteen tons of standard armor ensure that it can stay in the fight. Unfortunately with no
backup weaponry, the Storm struggles to defend itself if an enemy 'mech were to get it into
a close-range engagement.
