Description

Developed by Stefan Amaris as a wunderwaffen during the Amaris Civil War that destroyed the Star League, the Rifleman III was quickly destroyed and forgotten for centuries. However in the 3060s it was discovered that several chassis, along with plentiful parts, had been secreted away in a bunker in the Rim Worlds Republic itself and so the design came back into service for the RWR. This is the original model, the RF2-A. Armed with quad Gauss Rifles and a cutting-edge Null Signature System, the RF2-A is a deadly ambush sniper. However, it is slow, fragile, and has limited ammo, making it a niche unit in most situations.

Description

Originally developed by Stefan Amaris as a weapon of terror, the Rifleman III was thought lost forever after Amaris was defeated. However, the Rim Collection found a lost trove of Rim Worlds Republic designs and put them into service. One such chassis was 'lost' in combat and wound up on Solaris VII where it saw new life as a gladiator under the name Amaris' Compensation. Amaris' Compensation is a brawler design, with two each AC/20s and Snub-Nose PPC for heavy damage. CASE II protects the ammo bins while 13 DHS keep it mostly cooled.

However in the 3060s it was discovered that several chassis, along with plentiful parts, had been secreted away in a bunker in the Rim Worlds Republic itself and so the design came back into service for the RWR. This is a newly built Rifleman III, though bereft of the Null Signature System. Where the RF2-A carries quad Gauss Rifles, the RF2-B instead carries a quartet of Improved Binary Lasers for heavy ranged firepower. It also speeds up somewhat and mounts a trio of Jump Jets for maneuverability.

However in the 3060s it was discovered that several chassis, along with plentiful parts, had been secreted away in a bunker in the Rim Worlds Republic itself and so the design came back into service for the RWR. This is a newly constructed Rifleman III, though the RWR could not replicate the Null Signature System. Instead of the Gauss Rifles, the RF2-L mounts 8 LB-2X Autocannons with 6 tons of ammunition for extended firefights.

Description

Developed by Stefan Amaris as a wunderwaffen during the Amaris Civil War that destroyed the Star League, the Rifleman III was quickly destroyed and forgotten for centuries. However in the 3060s it was discovered that several chassis, along with plentiful parts, had been secreted away in a bunker in the Rim Worlds Republic itself and so the design came back into service for the RWR. This variant, the RF2-M, is armed with two of the newly developed weapons known as the Mercy (essentially a rotary rocket-propelled 'Mech-scale grenade launcher weapon). The Mercies lay down extreme weapons fire such that no backup weapons were deemed necessary. 14 DHS as well as an advanced heat exchanger and heat bank try in vain to keep it all cold while a 270-rated XL engine provides motive force to the design.
