Line 44: The ''Grand Crusader'' has a massive barrel-chested profile that harkens back to designs like the ''[[Awesome]]'' or ''[[Mackie]]'' and lending it an almost steam-age appearance, reinforced by the large smoke-stack style sensor pylons rising from its back. Built to maximize its available space for weapons and equipment, the ''Grand Crusader'' uses a weight saving Crucis-ES [[Endo Steel]] chassis and a lightweight [[Hermes 240]] [[XL engine]] that propels the 'Mech to a top speed of 54.0 km/h. The ''Grand Crusader'' is protected by 15½ tons of [[Maximillian 45]] armor and, to handle the 'Mech's heat burden, the ''Grand Crusader'' carries 10 [[double heat sink]]s.<ref name=CS-102/><ref name=TRO3058-132/> The ''Grand Crusader'' has a massive barrel-chested profile that harkens back to designs like the ''[[Awesome]]'' or ''[[Mackie]]'' and lending it an almost steam-age appearance, reinforced by the large smoke-stack style sensor pylons rising from its back.
