================================================================================================
Overview:
    The Krabuschek XZX is a superheavy quad battlemech designed by an unknown manufacturer. It
    houses two ultra ac/20s as main weapons, one Long Tom cannon for long range cover fire, and
    a flamer for infantry that get too close. To help land shots with ultimate precision by
    adding a targeting computer to the center torso. Some electronics in the chassis are held
    together by some jimmy rigging and prayers but later have been upgraded when the dark age
    started, such as the flamer and some life support systems. The head contains one Angel ECM
    system annd an c3i computer system and all 4 legs contain CASE II with ammo for the main
    weapons.
    
    The Krabuschek was designed to be a command line-breaker and therefore has a command console
    to better display the layout of the mechs to terrain and for targeting. Although being a
    superheavy, the Krabuschek was never meant to missions alone. Usually a faster skirmishes
    such as a shadow hawk or phoenix hawk would guard it from pesky small mechs and fast hover
    craft attempting to get behind it or out maneuver it. It can very well handle its ground and
    can alpha strike 62 damage at 90 meters but can still deal massive amount at 7 times the
    range. Two anti missile systems one both sides give it adequet protection from longer ranged
    missile boats that try to take it down making it a formidable opponent.
    
    The one and only KBK-X9X was created by unknown individuals who are most believed to be a
    mercenary named “George’s Jollies” and was designed by the leaders son most likely. It
    saw a decent amount of action and was part of The Battle of New Vallis which was a key point
    for the mercenary group that cost it almost its entire business and arsenal. The mech was
    salvaged after the battle and went through many hands before landing in Snord’s Irregulars
    loot group were sat as a trophy for almost a century. It was later ransomed by the new and
    reincarnated “George’s Jollies” renamed the (rather cheesy) “Bruther Brigade”.
    Unfortunately the mech started experiencing problems with the engine and after doing all
    they could, the Bruthers retired the mech as the repair and maintenance became to costly and
    time consuming. The mech slowly was picked apart for spare parts and became a forgotten
    piece of fine machinery.

Capabilities:
    POSITIVE:
    Improved targeting (long).
    Fast reload (long Tom)
    Distracting
    
    NEGATIVE:
    Poor Cooling jacket (flamer)
    Non-standard Parts
    Hard to pilot
    Difficult to maintain

Deployment:
    Created and Deployed during the end of Jihad (3078) and through the dark age and was retired
    in 3121.

Variants:
    There is one variant that was introduced by a small mercenary group. the LNGTM II dropped
    almost half of its armor and many pieces of weaponry and equipment for two massive andlong
    Tom artillery pieces capable of leveling an entire block. It keeps one laser AMS and a c3i
    computer.

Notable MechWarriors:
    Benny John Bruther is a notable Mechwarrior. Son of George Bruther, the leader of the merc
    group
