This was strongly suspected when the Imp reappeared in numbers after heavy losses. Its confirmation came with the report of Precentor III-epsilon Gordon Gaumnitz, an undercover MechWarrior-agent who has risen to the rank of captain in the mercenary Eridani Light Horse and who was invited to a conference with Wolf's Dragoons on Outreach. In conversations with Dragoon MechWarriors who were bubbling about their test rides in the new IMP-3E, Precentor Gaumnitz quickly realized that such extensive changes in design could not be a field modification. Precentor Gaumnitz gives a second-hand description of an Imp employing the Hermes 300 XL engine to preserve weight for significant improvements in firepower. The design reportedly carries 2 Magna Firestar Extended-Range Particle Projection Cannon, two Magna 400P Medium Pulse Lasers, two Martell Model 5 Medium Lasers, a single Thunderbolt-12 Large Pulse Laser, and a single Mitchell Systems LRM-15, up from an LRM-5. Its 30 heat sinks help the Imp deal with the tremendous amounts of heat generated by this fearsome array of weapons.     >Entered by Dave Welch from TRO 3050 Distribution from RS 3050 [ none ] (Unknown) (Unknown)HermesMaximillian 300Star League IM-03xPauley-Bronson ZWasat Aggressor Type 8 (Unknown)
