Lancer: Bleeding Hussars
A downloadable game
Between Pilots, the trading of blows is a violent and deadly affair. It isn't unusual for many Pilots to take combat stimulants before battle, equip themselves with exoskeletal strength-enhancing armor and gear, and seek services to have body modifications installed to improve their speed, reflexes, and constitution. All of this, for even the slightest edge, because the difference between life and death is a sliver of a second. Trained in peer-to-peer hand-to-hand and close-quarters battle scenarios, both in and out of the chassis, these most vicious kinds of Lancer call themselves Hussars.
They are rarely employed by any of the major forces in the galaxy; a mixture of risk-seeking behavior, high-cost body maintenance, and irregular discipline make them difficult to control. More often, they're gladiators, mercenaries, and bounty hunters, making names for themselves and being dramatized on the omninet for the layman's personal entertainment. Not to say you'll never find one in the ranks of Union's Department of Justice & Human Rights or the Harrison Purview's Colonial Legionnate, but they are quite an investment — more so even than Lancers.
Hussars are to Lancers what Lancers are to Pilots.
No you can be one of them. Are you ready?

Published under the Lancer 3rd Party License.
An expansion of the rules dedicated to enforcing the idea that the Pilot, at all times, is in a fight that could easily end their life if they’re not careful. Every bullet, every spear, combatants will always be inches away from death and ride the line between success and failure. This expansion gives you the chance to play the boots on the ground and experience the dangers of combat outside of your Mech.
Special Instruction
At the back of the Lancer Core Rulebook there are sheets which you should be able to pick out and use to track Hussar equipment while the LCP is being put together. We know, archaic. You'll live.

You're doing the lord's work mate! It's exciting to see this project is still alive and kicking!
This project is full of clever, well-executed rules modifications that dovetail well with the baseline Lancer ones and all in all I just think it's neat.
I put the LCP together for this. LMK if you wanna check it out.

This looks interesting. Trying to add a gritty, Titanfall flair to the pilot combat?
