>The Troglodyte was designed as an experiment a new design paradigm, pairing the Triskelion's tripod layout with blakist-designed Mechanical Jump Boosters.
>Weighing in at 100 tons, the Troglodyte uses the smallest possible fusion engine that can propel it, a low cost 100-rated standard engine. Built on a lightweight and slim composite structure, the Troglodyte is protected by nineteen tons of standard armor.
>For armament, the Troglodyte was equipped with a gauss rifle for long range combat, paired with a mammoth LBX-AC20 with three tons of ammunition to give it reasonable combat endurance. To give it some independence from ammunition supplies, it's equipped with a quartet of Medium X-Pulse Lasers which it can fire accurately while on the move.
>One of the major selling points of the Troglodyte was its low projected price tag. Estimated at 8,163,333 C-Bills, the Trog was potentially the cheapest mech in its entire class. It paired this low price tag with the near unique ability to leap 150 meters in a single bound while weighing and being armored as much as an Atlas.
>Despite these on-paper advantages, the Troglodyte didn't find a producer. The many unique parts required and the lack of compatibility with other mechs due to its tripod design and mechanical jump boosters lead to no manufacturer adopting the design.
