In the last six years of the Hundred Years War, no name was feared more than the Gilgamesh Confederation’s elite Red Shoulder Battalion. Nicknamed the “Bloodsucker Battalion,” these specially-trained soldiers were infamous for their savagery on the battlefield – no distinction was made between enemy, civilian and even ally. Although the Red Shoulders were disbanded after the war, most of its former members remained pilots. After the destruction of Woodo City in Astragius Year 7214, Chirico Cuvie teamed up with three Red Shoulder comrades to track down and kill Red Shoulder founder Yoran Pailsen.

To attack Pailsen’s fortified compound, four standard ATM-09-ST Scopedog units were rebuilt and customized into the ATM-09-STTC Scopedog Turbo Custom. The Turbo Custom’s legs were equipped with a jet roller dash system that allowed high speed ground movement. The Scopedog Turbo Custom’s armaments mirrored the original Red Shoulder units, with a 7-tube missile launcher, mortar, arm machine gun, Gatling gun and 2-tub missile launcher. Each unit also carried a distinct hand weapon, including a standard and compact heavy machine gun/grenade launcher, a rocket launcher and bazooka. During the raid, all four units were destroyed after heavy resistance by Red Shoulder-piloted X-ATH-P-RSC Blood Sucker units, leaving Chirico as the sole survivor.
