| For centuries the Clans generally disdained vehicles,
considering BattleMechs the only true weapon for a warrior to take
into battle. However, with the invasion of the Inner Sphere, the
Clans found that combined-arms tactics (using infantry and vehicles
alongside ’Mechs) were generally superior to their own type
of combat. This led directly to several new Clan vehicle designs.
Following the success of the Shoden Assault Vehicle, Clan Nova
Cat began to build a vehicle specifically designed to attack and
destroy other vehicles. It mounts one of the most powerful weapons
on the battlefield, which it can quickly bring to bear with its
impressive speed. |
