Why specialize in light skirmishers?
Tusa was wondering about this ever since his uncle tried to nudge him in this direction.
In his impression, light skirmishers were not easy to pilot at all. Their mech frames may be smaller and simpler, but they moved and acted so quickly that the pilot in question needed to be incredibly sharp and responsible.
Light skirmishers had a reputation for being unforgiving machines. Though Tusa admittedly enjoyed it whenever he piloted a virtual light mech in a simulation program, that was because his clumsy operations and frequent mistakes never led to any permanent consequences.
He became a lot slower and more apprehensive whenever he piloted a light training mech during realspace practice sessions!
