The republic had access to an amazing amount of technologies, including the manufacture of clan weapons and armour.
The Hoplite Republic was designed for pure resiliency.
The majority of the weapons occupy the centre torso, except for the 6 er small lasers which occupy the side torsos.
The chassis is reinforced, and a compact fusion engine is employed. The biggest technical hurdle was the interface cockpit, allowing the removal of the gyro. This means the mech can only be piloted by an elite ghost knight who has been "upgraded".
CASE II protects the ammo in the centre torso.
