Recognition notes
The Crucible 3 is a 100-ton assault that fights at long range, cruising at 32 km/h and topping out near 54, sluggish even by the standards of its weight class. It carries four HAG/20 rifles, one in each arm and one in each torso, backed by a Large Pulse Laser in the left torso and a Large Pulse Laser in the right torso. A jump capability of 90 metres gives it limited repositioning for a machine this heavy. CASE II lines both the left torso and the right torso, protecting the ammunition feeding the HAG/20 batteries. Earthwerks-FWL, Inc. builds it at Keystone.
