| − | The Wolverine is the basic vehicle unit of the Steel Talons subfaction of [[GDI]]. Its speed and agility are perfectly balanced with a high rate of fire to create a lethal killing machine. |
||
| + | Interestingly it is capable of repairing even structures - though it cannot be ordered to do so—requiring it to simply be positioned close to the structure in question. Due to its repair drones not using any resources in the repairs they perform, base structures restored in this manner can be repaired for free (albeit at a slower pace in comparison to the standard building repair method); these drones are the only way to repair [[Foxhole]]s. A drone is set to remain in a small control radius around the vehicle (similar to a [[Battle Base|deployed]] [[Rig]]) with the added ability to repair on the move so long as the MRT is kept within range of the damaged vehicle. |
||
| − | Due to its maneuverability, the Wolverine excels at flanking the enemy. It is small enough to go unnoticed by the untrained commander, but packs enough firepower and armor to hold its own in the field. It becomes particularly effective when mixed with [[Titan Mk. II|Titans]] and [[Behemoth]]s; the larger two can handle the larger units and structures while the Wolverine takes care of the soft targets. It is also a deterrent against Commandos, which can singlehandedly decimate an entire army of medium and heavy walkers with powerful explosives. |
||
| + | By itself, and when garrisoned with the appropriate infantry squads: the MRT can be a reasonably fast and flexible unit capable of engaging most targets—whilst being inherently capable of sustaining impressive amounts of punishment due to its repair drone. So long as it is extricated from overwhelming odds, it can very shortly re-enter combat with renewed integrity to wear down and eventually outlive enemy forces - never needing to ever head back to base for repairs. |
||
| − | However, the Wolverine is not limited to the antipersonnel role. Due to its withering rate of fire, it can also take on light vehicles and some of the weaker structures; and when upgraded with [[armour piercing ammunition]], its lethality is increased tenfold. |
||
| + | |||
| + | Whilst available very early, the progression of the battle towards its later stages does not deprecate the MRT's usefulness or necessity in the slightest. So long as Steel Talons commanders continue to utilize mechanized forces, the MRT will find use as a fast, cheap and highly practical sustentative support vehicle capable of loading infantry to make up for any deficiencies a Steel Talons force may possess. In this regard, the MRT can be considered the backbone of Steel Talons mechanized divisions. |

The Mobile Repair Transport (MRT) is the precursor to the Guardian APC, used exclusively by the Steel Talons as an infantry transport and backbone mech-support vehicle.
Background
A variant of the Guardian APC, the Mobile Repair Transport was a specialized vehicle used by the Steel Talons to support their armored forces. Its standard machine gun was replaced by a crane, and it was equipped with a repair drone. Though unarmed by itself, it maintained the firing ports of the original, allowing a squad of infantry to fire from within it.

 |
Evacuate | Orders any infantry stationed inside the MRT to exit at the targeted location (Ctrl+E). |
 |
