All stats current as of release 0.15.3

The Chevalier is an Inner Sphere tank introduced with MWLL 0.6.0. It is notable because it is the first non-hover light tank, as well as the first wheeled tank.
The Chevalier is very well armored for its speed, though its firepower is light to moderate; sitting somewhere between a Harasser and an Osiris.

As it is a wheeled vehicle, it cannot turn on its own axis like a treaded or hover tank. The Chevalier becomes more agile the faster it is moving, so pilots should always be lead-footed in combat.

Roles and Gameplay hints

Prime

A fast and cheap all-around unit, the Chevalier prime can punch holes with the PPC and then exploit them with the SRM-4 launcher. A good ECM suit helps increase survivability.

Variant A

This is a rather powerful fire-support unit for its price tag. The Light Gauss has extreme range and excels as a sniper weapon on the right hands. The LRM-5 dishes additional damage. The Bloodhound Active Probe helps in finding both threats and targets.

Variant B

A prime scout variant. The LBX and the Small Beam Lasers provide impressive short-range
