================================================================================================
Overview:
    After the threat of the WoB and the use of WMD became an unfortunately common occurrence,
    solutions were engineered to engage in warfare under CBRN. While not cheap, it is highly
    effective against conventional forces where infantry cannot deploy.

Capabilities:
    A highly durable hostile environment tank, the Manticore (SO) is mostly intended as a
    support element for anti-mech combat under hostile conditions. While it is less effective in
    causing breaches under vacuum than the otherwise similar Patton (SO), the focused hits can
    punish Battlemechs.

Deployment:
    A functional hunter-killer unit, the Manticore (SO) follows light spotters onto the field
    while taking advantage of C3. As Environmental Sealing increases the operational zones it
    can reach, it is popular with mecenaries that won't know what their next contract may bring.

Variants:
    A "Mercenary Special" trades the MRM and Thunderbolt for a pair of MML-7s with 4t of ammo
    for operational flexibility. One is mounted in the front, and the other in the turret.
