Marauder II MAD-8K

The MAD-8K is a 100-ton sniper that fights at long range, a 3138 rebuild of the 3012 MAD-4A juggernaut, cruising at 32 km/h and topping out at 54, with a jump range of 90 metres. Where the MAD-4A carried a medium laser alongside the PPC in each arm, the MAD-8K instead carries a Light PPC alongside the PPC in both the left arm and the right arm, and a Gauss Rifle in the right torso replaces the earlier large laser. CASE II lines the right torso, the engine shifts from a standard 300 fusion to a 300 XL fusion, double heat sinks replace the single sinks, and ballistic-reinforced armor replaces the standard plating of the original. As a command 'Mech it keeps a low, hard-to-target silhouette and hyper-extending arm actuators. Independence Weaponry builds it at Quentin.
