Description
Named after the Combine’s founder, the Shiro’s classic look evokes samurai pride, glory, honor, and nationalism. It is the only BattleMech within the DCMS that is specifically assigned by a warlord’s command staff. All Shiro pilots are required to have one Combine honor bestowed upon them, the most common being the Bushido Blade.
