================================================================================================
Overview:
    Built as a middle ground of the Frontiersman and Epaulet, the RDR-34C "Ridge Runner" is a
    dedicated cavalry mech. Meant to fade in and out of contact with the enemy, a good Ridge
    Runner can very easily harass opponents much larger than it, exploiting open armor and
    pushing them to overheat. While not a particularly glamourous looking mech, it speaks to its
    purpose with its long legs and potent firepower. Many Mechwarriors have come to see it
    superior than its two cousin Battlemechs, but in truth the Ridge Runner often does not have
    the firepower to take on opponents alone. Its weapons were chosen to have the mech operate
    like a spear, thrusting forward and exploiting gaps in the enemy's formation and/or armor,
    leading the Ridge Runner back to its designated role as Cavalry. Not arriving early or late,
    but right in time to win the day. Customer reviews for the RDR-3C are often welcoming and
    positive, however there are a strange amount of requests to "paint it red, and make it three
    times faster than other machines."
