Recognition Notes
The Rook NH-1A is a 55-ton juggernaut that fights in close, cruising at only 32 km/h and topping out near 54, slow for its weight class. Its firepower is concentrated in medium lasers, with one in each arm, a pair in the left torso, one facing rearward there, and two more in the right torso, one of those also rearward-facing. A PPC in the right torso gives it added reach, and a small laser rounds out the head. Primitive armor plates the frame, and the design carries a rugged, field-serviceable build. Hessen IndustrialWorks/NHDF builds it at New Hessen, with production also carried out at other sites.
