"The Can", a slow, heavily armored brick. Built by Kuat as a heavy assault unit, the Brawler was slow and considered undergunned, barely packing more firepower than Kuat's own Enforcer. The design's "waddling" gait also opened it up to ridicule, and it was a victim of a fairly effective slur campaign from other mecha designers. Kuat considers the design a bit of a failure, and stopped producing them in large numbers. Kuat also slightly misread the market, anticipating more demand for heavy machines but the most popular mecha proved to be medium-weight workhorses.
Nonetheless, Brawlers have become somewhat popular among mecha "hobbyists", as their large and robust frame, large powerplant, and modular design allows them to be easily modified. "Stock" Brawlers are rarely encountered in the wild. One such mecha, the Iron Bastard, built by Igantius T. 'Iggy' Smucker, competed in the Second Robotics Tournament.
