Description
The quadrupedal CK-3 CherryPicker AgroMech[3] is a design known to be in use since before 2857.[4]
In April 3057, Alexander Carlyle and Davis McCall acquired a bicentennial CherryPicker during an uprising on Caledonia that was modified to carry a machine gun and what amounted to a small laser. They hoped to contact the Gray Death Legion as their DropShips descended on the world, but in the chaos that ensued their AgroMech was considered a possible threat and was attacked and destroyed by Legion forces. Carlyle and McCall survived and managed to make contact nonetheless.[5]
