------------------------------------------------------------------------------
==Overview:==
As good as the aging Hussar is at its role. the unit still has its flaws.
While the ER Large Laser provides excellent firepower for its size, and the
unit has speed far exceeding most ground units, the fact is that the unit
still has weak armor. In addition, the Hussars in service are all aging.
With this in mind, Comstar made the decision to consider phasing out their
Hussar fleet with a more modern recon unit in the same weight category.
The Gremlin is the result of this process. Although not quite as fast as the
Hussar, it offers a far better electronics package and more overall armor and
firepower.
Rather than relying on a single weapons system that could be easily knocked
out, the Gremlin now has a variety of firepower to choose from- an LRM
launcher for long range combat, or an ER Medium and ER Small for short and
intermediate ranged fighting. In addition, taking a cue from the Black Knight
the electronics were set up so that they could 'ride' the weapon's energy
beam- BAP with the ER Small, TAG with the ER Medium.
Although the unit has an XL, steps were taken to ensure the unit's
survivability. CASE protects the LRM ammo, and the unit is at almost maximum
armor.
==Capabilities:==
Fluff game rules:
The mech can target a unit with the TAG and fire on it in the same round
provided that only the ER Medium is fired. This is due to the bundling. In
addition, every time the ER Small is fired, the BAP's effective radius in the
firing arc increases by one hex for the duration of the same turn and the next
turn.

With the LRM5 and the TAG, the semi-guided LRM ammo is a good choice for this one.

In a lance I would rather stay away with all of these and in if the 'Mech is alone than it can either shoot or TAG, not both, or this was changed in TW?
