Description
The Kobold is a battle armor design that was collaborated on by the Free Rasalhague Republic, ComStar, and the second Star League. The idea for such a joint project was developed after the Republic's attempts to procure Kage suits from the Draconis Combine came to naught. So, in 3062, the three powers came together and began to design a battlesuit that could mimic the capabilities of the Kage. After this process began, the concept of the design shifted somewhat to a light armor that can still hold its own it battle. The Kobold can only jump up to ninety meters at a time, but it does boast enough armor to stop a Medium Laser. This armor is of the basic stealth variety, so it is difficult to target far away.
Armament
The sacrifice in mobility resulted in the ability to add a modular weapon mount to the squad support weapon mount. The modular mount so far has two weapons: a Small Laser or a Micro Grenade Launcher. Depending on which weapon the squad mounts, the support weapon carried by the squad leader is either a Light TAG or Small Pulse Laser, respectively. As a light-class battle armor, the Kobold can make anti-'Mech attacks and ride mounted on OmniMechs.
