Background:

This assault frame was designed for the role of a line trooper. This frame was expected to engage enemy forces directly and to respond to almost any threat. To aid in this it was equipped with several hard points for weapon pods and was armed with appropriate sized hand weapons, in addition it had rollers on its feet and ankles to help with quick turn maneuvering and extended range cruising. If it could be said to have one weakness it was that it was not adequately equipped to fight off air attacks.
