The Shockwave is a medium strike ’Mech developed by the Marik-Stewart Commonwealth, a former part of the Free Worlds League, in the aftermath of the Jihad. Intended for fast attacks rather than hit-and-fade warfare or toe-to-toe slugfests, this design sports an excellent mix of laser and ballistic weaponry. Highly mobile and heavily armed for its size, this machine can deliver a withering barrage, and has the heat sinks to keep up the pressure almost indefinitely.
