Designer Notes
The successful use of the Stalking Cheetah during the final cycle of the War of the Alliance created a demand for the complex machine that simply could not be met. Elite units continued to receive priority for the laser-equipped Stalking and Sergon Optics could only produce so many of its laser weapons. Despite repeated promises of increased production, the supply of Redeyes could never match the demand. Units received more standard Gears, but the demand for a dedicated, fast-moving sniper Gear remained high. In TN 1923, after a cycle-long effort to sign a deal with Westfellow Technologies to produce the Stalking's laser weaponry fell through, Shaian began to produce a rifle-equipped version of the sniper Gear.
