The Lyran Commonwealth are famous for their approach to mech combat.

Go big or go home.

If the application of force does not solve the problem, you're not using enough force.  To this effect, they're willing to make sacrifices for a larger ride.

Be warned, Lyran mentality characters are NOT popular, and wont get loving welcome from the player unit commanders.
