CapacityA stilt-legged, gas guzzling Mech, designed to traverse boggy terrain. Waders were first built by wasters in the Oceanic Rim, utilising parts from broken Mechs and old box wheels destroyed in droves during the Road Wars.
Wasters in the Oceanic Rim would take to carrying their entire families in these Mechs upon woven baskets. This allowed them to safely traverse the many areas of boggy terrain, and even cross shallow inlets to other islands within the region.
Chassis Ability
Integrated Wader Locomotion System
Passive
The Wader has a standard Locomotion System that allows it to move through water, swamps, mud, rivers and similar expanses of difficult terrain without penalty.
Chassis Ability
Hybrid Diesel Reactor
Passive
The Wader utilises an archaic reactor that can be powered with crude fossil fuels.
As a Short Action, a Pilot can spend one, Tech 1, Scrap to restore 1 EP to The Wader. This Scrap represents finding a fuel source.
During Downtime The Wader gains only 5 Energy Points instead of being restored to its maximum amount. Otherwise this works as a normal reactor.
Weaver
This variant allows Wasters to carry their entire family and all of their belongings. Its tall frame protects them from ground hazards and allows them to traverse great distances in search of food and resources.
