==Description==
 
==Description==
The '''''Cadaver''''' was introduced by the [[Taurian Concordat]] in [[3094]]. With a top speed of 120 km/h, it typically functions as a high speed cavalry unit among Taurian forces, but has also been used as a scouting unit. Protected by six tons of [[ferro-fibrous]] armor, it has a great deal of armor for a light 'Mech, but doesn't possess much in the way of ranged firepower. The ''Cadaver'' carries a [[Full-Head Ejection System]] and a [[Guardian ECM suite]] disrupts enemy communications.<ref name=tro3145MercP28/>

The Taurians relied on the [[Raven Alliance]] for help manufacturing the design. Officially, only the Taurian Concordat and the Raven Alliance have access to the 'Mech, but [[Clan Sea Fox]] merchants have purchased ''Cadaver''s from the Ravens and sold them on to others.<ref name=tro3145MercP28>''Technical Readout: 3145 Mercenaries'', p. 28</ref>

==Weapons and Equipment==
The ''Cadaver'' uses an [[MRM-10]] for its long range firepower, fed by two tons of [[CASE II]] protected ammunition in the right torso. Each arm mounts an [[ER medium laser]] for close attacks, and a single [[flamer]] provides anti-infantry capabilities.<ref name=tro3145MercP28/>

*; CVR-T1 : This variant, introduced in [[3097]], is sold to the [[Taurian Defense Force]]. It removes all the standard weaponry and equipment and instead carries a [[Rocket Launcher 10]] in the right torso, a [[light PPC]] on the right arm, and an [[ER flamer]] and [[ER medium laser]] on the left arm. For electronic warfare, it carries an [[Angel ECM suite]], while a [[MASC]] system provides bursts of speed up to 160 km/h, allowing this ''Cadaver'' to run down [[hovercraft]] and [[VTOL]]s. It retains the [[Full-Head Ejection System]], but replaces the [[ferro-fibrous]] with [[reflective armor]].

The ''Cadaver''' was first created by [[Wizkids]]' [[MechWarrior: Dark Age|MechWarrior Dark Age Collectable Miniatures]] game as a part of its ''Gunslingers'' expansion set. It was used for exclusive piloted which were in the  game's unique figures. It was later adapted by [[Catalyst Game Labs]] and redefined in the tabletop game once the company advanced the franchise's timeline to [[3145]]. It made it's first appearance in in Technical Readout: 3145 Mercenaries.
