Recognition notes
The Lineholder KW1-LH3 is a 55-ton skirmisher, a 3059 rebuild of the 3058 KW1-LH2, cruising at 54 km/h and topping out near 86. Where the KW1-LH2 carries a Large Laser in the left arm, this version fields an ER Large Laser in the same location, and each torso trades its pair of Medium Lasers for a single Medium Pulse Laser. The twin LRM 5 racks in the right arm carry over from the base model. It remains known as an easily-serviced design, and Kressly Warworks builds it at Epsilon Eridani.
