CapacityThe 'TC48' Pioneer was developed by the Opus Institute as a scavenging Mech designed to endure the harsh, freezing, conditions of the Frozen Gulf. Initial builds were bought en masse by Stefanus when they moved their Arco to the Forgotten Tundra, following global rises in temperature that made cooling their vast data centres unfeasible elsewhere.
As with most Opus Mechs, its blueprints are open source on the corpo-net. As a result, it is often scrapped together by wastelanders living in arctic regions or salvagers delving into the ice.
Sub-Zero Engineered Chassis
Designed by Opus to operate within sub-zero temperatures and reinforced with titanium alloys, insulative materials and numerous locomotive stabilisers. The Pioneer suffers no adverse effects (including damage) from freezing conditions. It is also not slowed by Difficult Terrain in frozen and snowy biomes, such as the Frozen Gulf or the Forgotten Tundra. A Pilot within the Pioneer Chassis is also entirely protected from any adverse effects from freezing conditions, as the insulated interior keeps them at a stable body temperature.
