The ZXS-2 Zalmoxis is an upgrade to the original 
ZXS-1.  This variant is five tons heavier and carries jump 
jets.  The Zalmoxis is named for the little known Greek god 
of immortality.  It is designed primarily as a fast fire support 
mech.  It can deploy suppresion fire very quickly to where 
ever it is needed.
     The Zalmoxis's main weapon is its torso mounted 
LRM-20.  It carries three tons of ammunition and its use of 
Atremis IV lets it use them to great effect.  It also carries a 
trio of ER medium lasers to deal with anything that gets too 
close.  Its defensive capabilities include a Guardian ECM 
suite.  This allows it to escape undetected after it delivers 
its lethal volley of missiles.
     The first production models of this mech have been 
shown to be an excelent alternative to slower and bulkier 
fire support mechs.  In excersises, they have proven to be 
difficult to hunt down and destroy while still accomplishing 
their mission.
