Arthur



Designation: Set 08, "Arthur."
Model: AT - 082311
Series: Ujihiro
Type: Autonomous Tactical
Description: Bipedal humanoid, heavy frame, with dedicated pulse rail weaponry and limited action manipulator hands. Reactive aggression amplification matrix. Redundant meta-frame positively charged armor plating. 
Notes: Arthur is allowed the option of a biomimetic manipulator arm and a single dedicated pulse rail weapon. Obviously he would rather dual wield heavy armament than perform delicate tasks with fingers.

Joel



Designation: Set  08, "Joel."
Model: AT - 080711
Series: Yasutsune
Type:  Autonomous Tactical
Description: Macrocephalus type bipedal heavy frame. Short ram, single shot, breech-loading 105mm cranial cannon, with hinged ejection port. Reinforced depleted-uranium specialized dorsal skull plating. Dual matrix aggression amplifier. Tri-layered armored encasement. Pulse thrust kinetic joint linkage.
Notes: Joel's primary tactical function is the initial breech of terrestrial fortification. To this end, his main armament is reserved for entry assistance, rather than active combat. While the 105mm cannon is more than sufficient to reduce most barriers to rubble, Joel is often reluctant to fire his single chambered round, and typically prefers to use brute physical power to gain access to enemy strongholds, ramming entry points with his head.

James





Designation: Set  05, "James."
Model: AT - 062011
Series: Masakiyo
Type: Autonomous Tactical
Description: Bipedal humanoid. Aesthetically intimidating bulk size heavily armored frame. Berserker class hyper aggression behavior amplifier.
Notes: In combat James tends to rush headlong into frenzied attack behaviors. Due to his size and ferocity, this tends to have devastating effects on both the enemy's morale and personal well being.

Ralph




Designation: Mike - Set  04, "Ralph."
Model: AT - 042011
Series: Tomoyuki
Type: Autonomous Tactical
Description: Heavy bipedal armor type universal combat unit. Titanium alloy plating. Three mode optical array. Fully shielded Temüjin class strategy computer mounted inside torso cavity.
Notes: In the world of over-sized heavy assault autonomous shock troopers, Ralph stands a head taller than the rest. This of course makes him an easier target.

Winston





Designation: Xray - Set  03, "Winston."
Model: AT - 040411
Series: Hirotsugu

Notes: N/A

Blake

  

Designation: Lima - Set  03, "Blake."
Model: AT - 032311
Series: Kuniharu
Type: Autonomous Tactical
Description: Heavy assault bipedal chassis. Synthetic non-Newtonian fluid filled dispersion plate armor. Full range optical array with microwave relay.
Notes: Blake was originally designed to be a giant robot, but due to growing budget concerns, was restructured into a more economically feasible size.

Leroy

 
 
 
Designation: Quebec: Set 02, "Leroy."
Model: HT - 022811
Series: Kunitomo
Type: Hybrid Tactical
Description: Black-ops bipedal heavy assault chassis. Depleted uranium plate armor. "Head-Snatcher" type biological specified data acquisition protocol.    
Notes: Although largely banned in human friendly robotic societies, Leroy and other such Head-Snatcher type combat models have managed to find selective mercenary work in some of the darker theaters of operations. Leroy not only has the ability to access biological data through invasive penetration of the human brain, but he also has an unpleasant tendency of wearing his acquisitions in place of a head, until it rots away.

Roger




Designation: Golf - Set 02, "Roger."
Model: HT- 021811
Series: Nagatsuna
Type:  Hybrid Tactical
Description: Heavy intelligent armor capable of carrying a single humanoid passenger, either as a passive operator or incapacitated prisoner. Fully incorporated steel-encased depleted uranium armor covering the riding harness. Capable of autonomous operations mode. Two hard-point interchangeable armament systems, capable of a wide range of optional firepower. Currently outfitted with 20mm tri-barrel Gatling and a beam focus microwave disruption cannon.
Notes: According to the manual, an operator can pilot Roger internally or remotely. Since he is fully intelligent and equipped for autonomous operations, he can be given complex instructions. What the manual does not say is that Roger can be rather belligerent and altogether unwilling to surrender control. There have been more than a few friendly operators who have suddenly discovered Roger's prisoner transport mode.

Ethel




Designation: Juliet - Set 01, "Ethel."
Model: SAT - 012911
Series: Toshinaga
Type: Special Autonomous Tactical    
Description: Strategic heavy assault type frame. Dual mode mission parameter stages. Initial stage, HAHV (high altitude high velocity) insertion mode. Unit is dropped, inverted, with titanium carbide transitional shell locked to penetrate hardened targets or targets buried deep underground. After impact, titanium carbide shell diverges, transitioning into primary mode. Primary mode, automated assault directive. Outfitted with a single five point tactile manipulator, allowing limited use of standard small arms. Primary armament consists of matter displacement field generator mounted as right forearm.
Notes: Ethel has been hugely successful in the strategic elimination of targets too difficult to access with standard special autonomous tactical units. Deployment is identical to typical aircraft delivered munition payloads. Once inside a fortified structure she is capable of tracking specific targets and confirming kills, differentiating her from a simple EPW (earth penetrating weapon).

Albert




Designation: India - Set 01, "Albert."
Model: AT - 012511
Series: Kuniteru
Type: Autonomous Tactical  
Description: Primarily functions as a multi-use heavy weapons platform. Incorporated steel-encased depleted uranium armor, protected against nuclear, biological and chemical (NBC) warfare. Two hard-point interchangeable armament systems, capable of a wide range of optional firepower. Currently outfitted with 80mm smooth-bore heavy cannon, and a 20mm Gatling.
Notes: Albert is a formidable destructive presence, despite his lumbering--even awkward--movements, his limited sensory range, and his quiet, intellectual personality.

Gus




Designation: Golf - Set 01, "Gus."
Model: AT - 012311
Series: Shigekuni
Type: Autonomous Tactical  
Description: Integrated 7.62mm  assault rifle, with devoted individual AI targeting system. Bladed chain melee device. 20mm heavy cannon, with ten round drum, capable of firing optional explosive, incendiary, or armor piercing rounds. Intimidating full-frame all terrain chassis, encased in multi-layered composite fiber armor. Sleek skull design encourages fear responses within biological opponents.
Notes: Standing just over three meters, Gus's substantial size is intended to shock and awe during combat, security, and defense assignments. This has been moderately successful against human and hybrid adversaries, at least initially. Once the firing starts however, his looming stature tends to serve primarily as a bullet sponge. Fortunately, his devoted individual AI targeting system, his layered armor, and his ample supply of firepower are more often than not quite capable of providing an appropriate response  before total system shut down.
