Combat Rover Classes and CoRAGE
Titan Juggernaut
Mass: 16
Intelligence: 12
Agility: 15
Comms: 10
Intuition: 14
Robust: 18
Based on these primary stats, the favored class for this combat rover would be a Heavy Assault. The reasoning behind this choice is the high Mass and Robust values, which indicate the rover's physical power and resilience, making it suitable for a frontline combat role. Additionally, the rover has moderate Agility and Intuition, allowing it to maneuver effectively on the battlefield and adapt to changing situations. The lower Intelligence and Communications values suggest that this rover may not excel in decision-making or command roles, further reinforcing its suitability for the Heavy Assault class.
Mendicant Mechanic
Mass: 13
Intelligence: 16
Agility: 10
Comms: 18
Intuition: 12
Robust: 13
Favored class: Mendicant. The high Intelligence and Comms values indicate strong decision-making and coordination capabilities, which are crucial for a support role. The rover has moderate Mass, Robust, and Intuition, suggesting balanced capabilities in terms of durability and environmental awareness. The lower Agility implies that this rover may not be as fast or evasive as others, but it can still provide effective support to its allies.
Shadow Strider
Mass: 10
Intelligence: 14
Agility: 18
Comms: 12
Intuition: 16

Howdy there, folks! It's your pal Wayne Dusk, sponsor of the Dust, Rust, and Glory rover vs rover combat league. Today, I want to dive deeper into the CoRAGE system and what it means for you and your combat rover.
First up, we have Mass. This stat determines how many slots you have for weapons, armor, and accessories, and is a crucial factor in determining your rover's overall combat effectiveness. Heavy Assault rovers, for example, excel in this area, with their muscular frames and massive power reserves allowing them to carry more weapons and armor than any other class.
Mass is also a critical factor in some weight divisions. Rovers that are based off of the Hauler chassis have a bonus to their Mass and Robust stats and Rovers based off the Explorer chassis have a bonus to the Agility and Intelligence stats.
Next up is Intelligence, which represents your AutoGICore's ability to process information, make tactical decisions, and optimize your gear. Each class utilizes this stat in different ways. For example, the Mendicant class boasts superior processing power, enabling it to maintain peak performance in support roles like repair and diagnostics, while the Artillerist class has state-of-the-art targeting systems that give it unparalleled combat analysis and tactical awareness.
Agility measures your rover's speed, mobility, and reflexes, and is a key stat for any rover looking to avoid enemy attacks and maneuver through difficult terrain. The Pugilist class, with its lightning-fast movements and pinpoint-accurate strikes, is nigh impossible to hit and can dance circles around its foes, while the Recon class utilizes its agility to move quickly and quietly through enemy territory, gathering valuable intel along the way. Comms is all about your rover's ability to coordinate with others and establish dominance on the battlefield.
Intuition measures your rover's perception, situational awareness, and scanning capabilities, and is a key factor in determining your rover's ability to spot hidden threats and analyze battlefield conditions. The Bastion class, with its superior durability and armor, can withstand even the most devastating attacks and remain standing to protect its allies, while the Rogue class uses its heightened intuition to spot enemy weak points and strike with deadly precision.
Finally, there's Robust, which measures your rover's durability, armor, and self-repair capabilities. The Mendicant class, with its superior energy resilience and self-repair capabilities, is able to maintain its performance even in the toughest of conditions, while the Heavy Assault class boasts superior armor and durability, allowing it to absorb damage and keep on fighting.
So there you have it, folks. Each primary stat has its own set of derived abilities and strengths that are unique to each combat rover class. As you play through the league, you'll have the opportunity to upgrade and customize your rover to better utilize these stats and abilities to suit your playstyle and the challenges you face. Now get out there, strap yourself in, and let's make some dust, rust, and glory!
