Rust Eagles

The Rust Eagles are a faction They play a major role in the Test Your Metal event.

Background
Described as an "up and coming branch" of raiders, the Rust Eagles were formed by Buzzsaw, having seen the value in having robots do things typically done by humans, utilizing scrap to create deadly war machines and combat robots. Buzzsaw gathered the best of the best botsmiths (Raiders with fanatical obsessions with robot modification) among the Blood Eagles in order to form the offshoot gang. The Rust Eagles perfect their craft by pit fighting in the Metal Dome. Odessa Valdez of the Brotherhood First Expeditionary Force created an infiltration group initiative, known as the Gladiators of Steel, to infiltrate, monitor, and gather intelligence on the Rust Eagles efforts. The Rust Eagles are speculated to have not begun attacking Appalachia due to being perfectionists, treating Metal Dome battles as a game until they've perfected their ultimate design. By 2104, Botsmith Amp has the Rust Eagle record for kills in a single arena match, physically destroying the old scoreboard showing that Botsmith Beatrice had more kills overall.
