{{Mech Description
|Description=Specifically made to be used in the Word of Blake's 'Death Units', the Manei Domini, the Black Heart was designed to kill quickly and ruthlessly. It has also become available for pirate units through black market trading.
|Strengths=With good speed and a blend of direct fire-power, the black heart is a serious 70-ton threat known by few pilots. Regardless of range, this mech excells in a fight when the attention is on a larger target. When outfitting, considering slot usage is critical, but pays off.
|Weaknesses=With average speed and limited torso-twist this mech has good mobilty, but once its cover has been destroyed it becomes the black 'toast' mech. The arms represent its main armament and once their destroyed the firepower is significantly reduced. Additionally, due to its low slung arms, arm mounted weapons may be blocked by terrain directly in front of the mech despite the reticule being above it. This is especially prevalent when using a "hill humping" strategy.
