The M-65 Ridgway is a one-man American Republic<\/a> combat walker which can be equipped with a variety of weaponry depending on the required role.<\/p>\n

It’s also an additional contribution that we made towards the Polyversal<\/a> Kickstarter – everyone who pledged at ‘Adjutant’ level or higher gets a free set of three models, one of each type. The original design was something I put together a couple of years’ ago, but with the benefit of more design experience I felt I could make it better. So I’ve sat down and redrafted the model, and this is the result (or almost – there are one or two more tweaks to make before it’s 100% finished). <\/p>\n

The Ridgway will ship to all qualifying contributors with the rest of their pledges, won’t be made available for general sale until 12 months after that.<\/p>\n
