Description
The Star League developed many boondoggles in its day, but perhaps none is as infamous as the Champion LAM. Intended to produce a LAM that outperformed and outweighed all other existing LAM designs, the Champion LAM was a catastrophic failure at the time and was eventually mothballed on New Dallas. However, New Dallas would be lost to the Succession Wars and forgotten about until the 3060s, when an enterprising mercenary commander would discover a bunker containing several Champion LAMs and would sell them off for quick cash.
