Gardmare

The Gardmare is a Knightmare Frame produced by the Europia United. It is a mobile weapon platform used by the E.U. for military escort and protection.

Design and Specifications
Just like the Panzer-Hummel the Gardmare is a vastly different design compared to the Britannian Knightmare Frame. This European Knightmare Frame possesses two large claws and two cannons mounted on its arms as its primary armaments. In terms of protection, Gardmare frames also appear to have bulky armor, although the armor can easily be destroyed by the standard Britannian Knightmare Frame assault rifle. Despite of its large size and bulky armor. Gardmare have exceptional speed and can perform acrobatic maneuvers.

Like most Knightmare Frame it also has an ejection system, but unlike its Britannian counterpart its "ejection system" just opens a hatch on the back of the Knightmare for the pilot to exit. A farcry to the Britannian ejection system where its pilot are literally jettisoned to safety. The Gardmare ejection system just left the pilot vulnerable to enemy attack.

Operational History
