Mobile Weapons Platform

The Mobile Weapons Platforms were a group of military research projects headed by James Raine. Other research projects from James Raine include the Einhänders and the Infantry Battle Rig.

Cyaegha Assault Vehicle

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v216/FaxCelestis/Cyaegha.jpg Name: Cyaegha Assault Vehicle Size (Body): 18 ft tall, 6 ft wide (torso) Maximum Speed: 35 kph Armaments: Two Titanium Pincer Arms, Three Air Tazer Spines Special Capabilities: Anti-Gravity Generator Notes: The Cyaegha is designed with fear in mind. Seeing an 18-foot tall monstrosity spraying lightning bolts is usually enough to send infantry running in fear. In addition, the Cyaegha is designed to look “organic yet unnatural.” The name Cyaegha was given to the prototype, after a particularly disturbing god in H.P. Lovecraft’s Cthulhu mythos. The Cyaegha sports three whip-like arms with barbed spines on the end of them. In addition to being particularly vicious against infantry, they are capable of firing lightning bolts. This is especially damaging against electricity-based targets, as it usually results in critical systems overloads. Also, the Cyaegha has two short-range scissors arms, which are pneumatically powered and are capable of crushing concrete. They are more frequently used against infantry, however. Finally, the Cyaegha has an anti-gravity generator, which it uses for mobility. Not having legs, the Cyaegha is capable of going quite a few places that other units are not, such as over water, off of a cliff, or over especially rough terrain. This makes the Cyaegha a particularly effective tactical unit. However, its’ overall speed is reduced due to this alternative method of transport.

Tiamat Assault Vehicle

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v216/FaxCelestis/Tiamat.jpg Name: Tiamat Assault Vehicle Size (Body): 23 ft tall, 8 ft wide (torso), 15 ft wide (legs) Maximum Speed: 60 kph Armaments: Blade Talons, Battle Vise, Short-Range Rocket Launcher, Flame Thrower Special Capabilities: Sensor Array Notes: The Tiamat Assault Vehicle was designed after your stereotypical dragon. Designed for one pilot and one gunner, it has a variety of armaments. In addition, its’ five legs gives it superior stability and speed. The short-range rocket launcher mounted on the back is capable of being fitted with tracking missiles, heat seeking missiles, or simply high-explosive rockets. Both the battle vise and blade talon are used exclusively by the pilot to take down infantry or problematic obstacles. The primary weapon of the Tiamat, however, is the flamethrower mounted in the “mouth.” Incredibly effective against infantry, and useful for overheating enemy assault vehicles, the Tiamat is capable of using its flamethrower on any target within 180 degrees of its “forward” position.
