Lunare Scuderia

**Lunare Scuderia** is an anti-gravity racing team which competes in the SRRL.

## Lore

### Redout

Lunare Scuderia is a contemporary racing team started by a group of former Italian engineers, leftovers of every other luxury brand. Heritage of an entire dynasty of pilots, Lunare began racing in the 2548-49 season and was initially relegated to the last positions. The team has been steadily working its way up to the middle of the pack, up to thebrilliant victory of the 2554-55 season thanks to the exceptional driving of its two pilots Zanna and Zarandi and the unexpected performances derived by their nano-ceramicinjectors. That victory granted a much needed capital injection and the team was able to rack up more support thanks to commercial and sponsorships, making Lunare Scuderia able to regularly compete at the top of the table.

Boasting the best acceleration available and a more than adequate top speed, matched by great handling, these ships sacrifice energy capacity and durability for the lightest possible structure.

By the time of Redout, it seems that the CEO of Lunare is Giuseppe Ricciardi, son of Gianni, and descendent of Giovanni and Eva.

*Luxury, speed, and controversy. The founder Giovanni Ricciardi, descendent of Eva Ricciardi, used to say: "The ordinary flee the past and chase the present, but the exceptional drive the future." Such poetic language from the family that almost annihilated humanity.* - In-game description when rotating the camera in the hangar.

*A sporty platform with excellent performance for building a strong engine.* - In-game description when selecting which team to use.

## Redout ships

### Redout 1

#### GT9 Stradale

Speed: Class I

Quick design iteration over the blueprints of a dream car is what gave the Stradale its distinctive look and engine architecture. The Lunare engineers found out in 2545 how to coat their injectors with nano-ceramic tubes in order to cool the entire system down, but had to wait until the end of 2547 to find the capital needed to begin production.

Being extremely tight on money at crucial point of production, the Scuderia decided to use the previous CEO car chassis as foundation for their first official racing ship. At its core, the Stradale is a reinforced street car on rockets. It comes at no surprise that the GT9 Stradale could barely score a handful of points in its first season: still, the story struck chord in the public and the team was able to gather additional funding.

#### GT10 Veloce

Speed: Class II

The Veloce has been the final masterpiece of Gianni Ricciardi, defunct CEO of Lunare Scuderia, three times winner of the Lunar Rally Championship, seven times winner of the Mars & Titan Cronoscalata, before disappearing from the public radars.

Produced with much less money constraints, the Veloce is the most lightweight AG ship ever made. Lunare expanded the nano-ceramic tubes to the entire structure, making twice as resilient and light compared to the GT9, and was able to work its way up to the top-half of the pack.

#### GX210 Corsa

Speed: Class III

The GX210 marked a turning point for the Scuderia. Freed from the old engineering constraints and direction given by his father, Giuseppe Ricciardi worked on more than 500 prototypes before finding the correct combination of thrust and weight.

The structure was designed to accommodate more powerful engines and resist to higher lateral G forces. Unfortunately, the Scuderia had to adapt the design to the new Class III restrictions introduced in 2550, disrupting the beautiful equilibrium of the entire ship.

#### GTX Competizione

Speed: Class IV

The GTX has been rebuilt from scratch four times by Lunare, one for each time the SRRL changed the specifications for the Class IV ships. While the other teams always managed to make small changes in the design to comply with the new regulations, Giuseppe was convinced that each time you rebuild something, you are making it better. And the Competizione is probably the only masterpiece he's happy to have left behind.

Prefectly balanced and crazy fast, the Competizione is the best incarnation of the GTX and has won the SRRL with Zarandi four times in a row, starting 2554-55.

### Redout 2

#### How to Unlock

Lunare is the 1st team to be unlocked in the B League, and the 2nd overall. It can be found in the event group "Lunare Access Pass". Three (3) stars are needed across all events within that group to make the team available for use.

#### Stats:

(All base parts / no upgrades. Scale of 0 - 20, 0 being worst and 20 being best)

* Speed: 12
* Thrust: 8
* Durability: 5
* Strafe: 7
* Steering: 20
* Stability: 7

## Lunare parts

Signature Lunare parts in Redout 2:

* Signature Lunare Propulsor: Fragile and light, but with a mighty top speed and thrust bite. A-la Lunare glass cannon.
* Signature Lunare Rudder: The Lunare Rudder strives for the best Steer/Strafe stats while sacrificing as little as possible.
* Signature Lunare Electronic Stability Control: Lunare made minimal stat sacrifices to get this mix of Stability/Strafing power.

## Redout 2 Arcade stats

Lunare boasts the equal best steering with ESA-AGR, and top speed comparable to Helix and Conqueror - slightly higher than Wallace-RG but less than Sulha AG. (May need updating with a recent change to certain Arcade ship stats.)
