================================================================================================
Overview:
    My personal take on what the Clan IICs should have been.  What I am call the VIIC.  Core
    concept is to avoid using the XL engine; weight, armor, and structure may use special
    materials.

Capabilities:
    A straight practical upgrade of the classic 1V.  Upgrading the ML to an ER variant and
    swapping the Twin MGs and 1t ammo for a pair of SPLs.  The SPL maintains the effective
    anti-infantry capability while simultaneously enhancing the anti-armor capability; it also
    frees the mech from the need for ammo resupply.  Finally, the use of Endosteel allows the
    addition of a MASC unit to further enhance the unit's speed.
