Konig Wolf

The Konig Wolf was introduced at a time when Zi was in the terror grip of the Ligers. The Imperial Liger Zero X was running free and unchecked, trouncing any and all comers with it's superior speed, armor, and firepower. It was considered to be the perfect and absolute for all high end medium fighters. Along with the Berserk Fury for heavy fire support, a small mixed unit could devastate a small army.

The Republic was against a wall, and had nowhere to go... Except backwards. The aging Command Wolf scout platform had been the workhorse of the Republic for decades, and was considered obsolete by many. This was all to change, as Republican scientists and mechanical biologic engineers selected twenty of the Republic's best Command Wolves and pilots, based on mechanical ability, pilot aptitude, and zoid personality matrix. The wolves were stripped bare, down to the chassis and guts, and meticulously reworked. The new wolves were to be stronger, faster, yet still retain the Command Wolf's original adaptability and customizability. Covered in titanium fusion armor, and boosting a new generator core powerful enough to carry even the Gojulas CP-10 beam cannons, and still run at full tilt, the Koing Wolf was born. Coming stock with no weapons except a static charge bite and strike laser claw, the Konig Wolf easily carried nearly any weapon in the Republic arsenal.

Classified as a combination sniper/medium assault platform, the Konig Wolf excelled in all tests and simulations, and received high praise from pilots, for it's relatively easy and familiar handling, and from engineers and mechanics, who found the Konig easy to repair and work on. The only real weakness to the Konig Wolf was that it was prone to overheat, a problem somewhat relieved with an integrated alcohol circulating cooling system.

The Konig Wolf saw battle not too far from where it was created, when the conversion facility in which they had been reborn was selected for attack by a mixed LZX unit. Expecting an easy mission, the Ligers pounded in without caution, and quickly paid for their mistake when the combined force of only four Konig Wolves held off the entire unit for three hours, before Republican heavy support arrived. It was a day to be marked in history, when the balance was once again restored to the everlasting war between Republican and Imperial factions.
