Recognition notes
The Chimera CMA-1S is a 40-ton striker built around a 240 XL fusion engine, cruising at 65 km/h and topping out near 97, with a single jump carrying it 180 metres. It fights across a mixed spread rather than one clean band: an ER Large Laser and ER Medium Laser share the left arm, a Machine Gun sits in the right arm, and an MRM 20 fills the right torso. Endo steel structure and standard armor round out the frame. Kressly Warworks builds it at Epsilon Eridani, with production also underway at other sites.
