Atlantic Rim: Gipsy Danger Strider
V1.0 beta" | RimWorld 1.6 | Requires: Exosuit Framework
Adds the Gipsy Danger Mark-I Strider to RimWorld 1.6 — a nuclear-turbine powered bipedal war machine operated by the General Maritime Authority's Strider Initiative. One pilot synchronise through a Neural Sync interface and drive the machine as one. On the Rim, one very determined colonist will have to do.
Gipsy Danger Mark-I
A Mark-One design. Nuclear vortex turbine. Battleship grey. Built to absorb punishment that would destroy anything lighter, and hit back hard enough to matter. The pilot's head is concealed inside the chassis. The machine does the fighting on their behalf.
Modules
(b) Type-19 Charge Blaster [ArmRight]
Ionised plasma burst from the right fist. Three shots per cycle, medium-to-long range (48 tiles). Primary fire.
© Chain Cutter [MountRight]
Retractable mono-filament chain blade in the forearm mount. Wide sweep arc (210°), high armour penetration (1.80). Melee specialist.
(d) Momentum Tether [MountLeft]
Shoulder-mounted tungsten penetrator on a retention cable. Single heavy shot (range 38). Slow. Effective at pulling targets into Chain Cutter range.
