The Buffalo is the most radical departure from the Lion’s robust frame. Replacing the legs entirely with a hover platform and he Arms with heavy weapon mounts. This allows the Buffalo to perform in terrain mechs find troublesome. Its high speed is also notable, although it is limited by dense terrain units like the Angel easily overcome. This ability to deliver heavy firepower exactly where and when it’s needed has proven to be invaluable.
Although the Buffalo proved successful initially, Omicron Zodiac Engineers saw more potential for it. Moving the main weapons to a backpack mount and reinstalling arms and legs allowed for a heavily armed and armored weapons platform. It’s speed is much lower than with the Hover Platform but it winds up with 25% more armor than the Lion as well.
