The notorious name of the Revenge Shadow Rider was well-known even among various civilian mecha styles. They cared more about what they were seeing than the rumors, and they harbored a deep disdain for the hard power of the Revenge Shadow Rider and the military's so-called Red and White ranks.
Their disdain wasn't blind, for civilian mecha pilots tended to have a more personal flair in their operations, favoring solo combat styles. Despite their disdain, the situation was still sensitive with the attempt to encircle the Revenge Shadow Rider. They knew to fear the unexpected, as the Revenge Shadow Rider moved undetected, leaving no trace. If by chance he escaped today and learned which faction had acted against him, the trouble that would return to them would be significant.
