| Designer Notes |
| The worst fate that can befall a Heavy Gear pilot is being trapped inside a crippled machine, which may still be in a "hot" combat zone and is likely to be hit by stray fire which could blow open the fuel tank. The Rescue version of the stone Mason serves as an emergency rescue tool, following a group of assault vehicles such as Spitting Cobras on the battlefield, and attempting to cut the pilots out of their Gears in the brief time that the tide turns in their favor. The pincers that are normally mounted above each shoulder of the vehicle are replaced by powerful vibroblades and metal saws to cut through damaged armor. They also make excellent melee weapons, although few pilots would willingly enter close combat in such a weak machine. The engine and transmission have both been improved to provide extra torque for towing, though the SMS ground wheels had to be removed to install the large gripping soles that are required to make full use of the available horsepower. A complex automated medical system is mounted in an armored housing on the Gear's left arm to provide emergency care for wounded crewmen, stabilizing them for transport. The medsystem's arms are small and dextrous enough to work in confined spaces, should the Stone Mason be unable to completely free the trapped pilot. Rescue pilots are trained in first aid and basic field medicine to make full use of these systems. |
