Armor Description:
The latest in a new type of Zoid, the Republic designed the Saberlion for a great deal of mobility and agility and for close range strikes. It's got rather good armor for it's size though it is much smaller than your average cat Zoid. Likely to enhance it's agility, the Saberlion has no armor on it's legs. Still, it's small. Much like a boxer with a glass jaw, the Saberlion can deal some nice damage in melee, so long as you don't let it get hit.

Mobility and Power Source:
The Saberlion is small, and handles similar to the Guntiger and Helcat. While the Guntiger specializes in ranged combat with its powerful Magnum, and the Helcat's a dedicated stealth Zoid, the Saberlion is made for melee combat against larger, less maneuverable Zoids. It's agile, quick, and has excellent acceleration, and since it doesn't pack any power-draining weaponry, it's almost impossible to stall.

Radar Ears, Rear Warning Sensor
The Saberlion's ears, located on either side of the face, as well as the lion's tail, all literally act as a form of radar. Together, they detect and report on the position of Zoids visible to radar with respect to the Saberlion's own position.

High Frequency Blade x3
The large, 7 meter long one is located on the top of the Saberlion's head in resting. The other two smaller 6 meter ones are located on the sides of the head behind the radar ears. When deployed the top blade is flung forward and points straight forward. It's slightly curved so the bladed edge is facing forward. The two blades on the sides extend fully outward. All three blades are designed better and made sharper than the Blade Liger's blades too. Not only that, they vibrate at an exceedingly high frequency tuned to the harmonic breakdown frequency of most armor. This gives them cutting power unheard of, even by charged blades. This is good, because the Saberlion's gonna need all the help it can get. Finally, they produce an eerie wail akin to a tuning fork when active.

High Frequency Claws
One on the end of each of the Saberlion's legs, these claws have four toes made of a sharp, extra-strength alloy. Like the Guntiger's cloaws, they vibrate at a high frequency when "charged," making for an increased cutting ability in a tight spot. However, while the system is active, the Saberlion receives a 15 kph speed penalty.

High Frequency Fangs
A pair of relatively short, sharp alloy fangs located in the Saberlion's small jaws. Exactly like the Guntiger's fangs, they vibrate at a high frequency when "charged," making for an increased cutting ability in a tight spot.

Smoke Dischargers
The Saberlion has four of these, one behind each hip and one behind each shoulder. When activated they unleash a large amount of thick smoke, creating a large smoke cloud behind the Saberlion for cover.
