== Description ==
A product made possible from the upheaval of the chaotic [[Jihad]] era, the '''Ravager''' is an Assault Battle Armor first produced in the [[Marian Hegemony]].  Prior to the Jihad, the Hegemony briefly had an alliance with the [[Word of Blake]] who, in working with the current ''[[Caesar of the Marian Hegemony|Caesar]]'', constructed a Battle Armor production line on [[Horatius]]. However, during the alliance, [[Julius O'Reilly]] became the new ''Caesar'', and subsequently evicted the Blakists, leaving behind a partially built Battle Armor production line. Julius's son, [[Cassius O'Reilly]], recruited a former [[Irian Technologies]] scientist during the Jihad to help complete the production line and give birth to the Ravager.<ref name="TRO:3085Sp10+"/>

Dr. [[Dafyyd Rou]] designed the Ravager with common technology available to the Hegemony and had the suit in production by [[3084]]. The Marian Hegemony soon began marketing the suit for sale to the open market to help bolster the Hegemony's coffers.<ref name="TRO:3085Sp10+"/>

The Ravager's principal weapon is a rotary-style Heavy Recoilless Rifle mounted in the right arm. A pair of single-tube Rocket Launchers mounted on the main body rounds out the armor's ranged weaponry.  A single [[Battle Claw]] is fixed on the suit's left arm as its only physical attack weapon.<ref name="TRO:3085Sp10+"/>

The Ravager boasts nearly a ton of Standard Battle Armor, allowing it to survive considerable damage from even BattleMech weaponry. Its other noteworthy quality is its speed, which has been clocked at a brisk 20 km/h.<ref name="TRO:3085Sp10+"/>

Designers working for the game company [[WizKids]] originally conceived the Ravager. It was designed for their collectible miniature game, [[MechWarrior: Dark Age]], and was first featured as part of the company's Annihilation set release. The Armor was noted as being available for all five of the major House Militaries, [[Bannson's Raiders]], the [[Wolf Hunters|Wolf Hunters mercenary company]], and the [[Rasalhague Dominion]].<ref>[http://www.warrenborn.com/Search.php?ID=Ravager MechWarrior Dark Age fansite's Warrenborn.com faction listings for the Ravager.]</ref>
