Notes: The Charger is primarily a reconnisance, urban warfare, & anti-personnel roadstriker. It relies primarily on speed to avoid damage, but the pilot's compartment has been reinforced.
The weapon systems are simple and straight forward. The primary weapon is an over/under pulse rifle and particle accelerator. The pulse rifle will work against most of the opposition the Charger will face, but the designers added a particle accelerator for those moments when the Charger runs across more formidable opposition. The rifle is either held with two hands or mounted on either shoulder. Rounding out the weaponry is a beam saber that can either be held in one hand or mounted on either wrist.
The GES system allows for brisk speeds of up to 126 KPH in primary mode or up to 454 KPH in hover-sled mode.
The stealth and sensor suites make this unit excellent for action behind enemy lines.
The final addition was a remote control deck for direct command of the Super Charger and Starline units.
The only oddity about the Luge is it's pilot compartment in each mode. In humanoid mode, the pilot is upright in the torso. In hover sled mode, the pilot lays back with his head toward the rear and his feet forward. Thus the name Luge.
Description: The Luge strongly resembles Blurr from the Transformers. The only real difference is the large gun mounted off-center left or right when in hover sled mode. The pilot is completely protected by the enclosed pilot compartment.

Notes: The Charger is a good, solid, all around Mek. It is a multi-role unit geared toward tackling other Meks.
As with the Luge, speed and maneuverability are the Charger's main strong points. It doesn't really stand out other than a good weapons package that allows a pilot several options.
The stealth capability was added due to considerations for the Skyline/Starline Pack Fighter unit. Without it, the stealth capabilities of the Skyline would be a moot point since the Charger is carried on the nose of the fighter.
Description: The Charger is the Redeye from the intro of the Playstation game Armored Core.

Notes: The Skyline is a Pack Fighter designed to give the Charger more range and mobility.
Speed again plays a role in the unit's defense.
Only a pair of linked pulse guns add to the weaponry of the Charger.
When combined with a Charger, a Skyline makes a devastating gunship due to it's VTOL capability.
Description: A bulbous fuselage with a pair of forward swept wings. The barrels of the guns protrude from each wingtip.
On the nose of the fighter is the docking collar that connects with the upper rear torso of the Charger.

Notes: For space duty, the designers went with command armor to boost the Skyline to the high heavens. This adds very significant speed and range to the fighter's already impressive abilities.
Two racks of missiles were added for more offense and defense.
Description: A Skyline with additional armor packed with thrusters and vernier ports.
