History
The Charger is an improvement on the aging Talon, its immediate predecessor. The Charger chassis has proven a very versatile design and has been adapted into several other warjacks, including the Sentinel, the Firefly, and the Lancer.[1]
Properties
A mainstay of the Cygnarian army, many journeyman warcasters first warjack was a Charger. The charger is armed with a battle hammer for melee combat and a dual cannon for long range. The dual cannon uses a reload system originally used in the Defender, but updated with a recoil-based mechanism that uses the recoil of one cannon to help reload the other.[1]
