Recognition notes
The Firestarter FS9-P is a 35-ton striker that fights close in, cruising at 65 km/h and topping out near 97, with a single jump carrying it 180 metres. Its arms each carry a Flamer and a Medium Laser, while both torsos mirror each other with a Small Laser, a Flamer, and an SRM 2. The heavy concentration of Flamers across all four limbs and torsos gives it an unusually incendiary bite for its weight. It runs on an endo steel frame with 10 double heat sinks and standard armor, and is fielded as a field refit rather than a factory-built line.
