A New Countermeasure

Inspiration worked in different ways.

In the previous case, Ves became impressed by the design concept of the BDX-35F-3. He decided to copy the idea behind this design and refine in his own way in the hopes that he could succeed where the original designer failed.

This was a different case. The Checkered Gabardine presented him with another attractive design concept, but that did not mean that Ves should copy it wholesale.

What he should really be asking first was whether it fit the needs of his target audience.

Ves quickly ran through the requirements he set for the second light mech of the Flagrant Vandals.

First, it needed to be a light mech that could keep up with the Ferocious Piranha. Second, it should be able to exploit vulnerabilities generated by suppressive glows. Third, it had to possess the capability to mess with opponents with its own form of suppressive glow.
