The Mechas[edit | edit source]

The Gilga Class, a common mecha.

Description: The mechas are dangerous bio-mechanical creations of the Apexx WarGroup, a mysterious company that sells weapons to anyone who will buy them. Cheap to grow and manufacture, the mechas are easy for even small empires to buy in bulk and attack with in devastating numbers.

The sale of mechas is nearly impossible to trace so Apexx WarGroup often makes a profit and remains neutral in galactic affairs (sometimes supplying both sides).

Common Mechas[edit | edit source]

Some of the many deadly designs for sale:

The Gilga Class: The Gilga class Mech is a standardized support mech designed for wide-open combat. It's main weapon is a double-armed four-barrel heavy machine gun which sends hundreds of rounds into enemy lines. It's guidance systems and rate of fire allow it to take down smarter and faster targets while it's high caliber bullets allow it to take down slower but heavily armored enemies. A small number of these can make an enemy's approach into their front lines impossible.

The CRC-9 Droid: The CRC-9 Droid is an extremely lightweight cannon fodder droid. However, many commanders have made the fatal error of dismissing it as just that. The CRC-9 is very fast and can enter enemy lines or take hits for more important units with ease. It's most deadly feature is it's twin energy blades. They quickly cut through squads of infantry while they are distracted by seemingly more dangerous units or other CRC-9's. In fact, the blades make up 70% of the droids production costs because the CRC-9 is so cheap to manufacture. Produced by Apexx WarGroup, the CRC-9 is becoming a menace on the battlefield and their new best seller.


The Polaris Heavy Mech: The Polaris class Heavy Mech is a pliable combat unit. While built with light weight materials, the Polaris delivers a maximum payload. It's equipped with eight missile pods, two light machine guns, and a front end grenade cannon. It's adaptable design allows it to operate in normal terrain, ice and snow, and even underwater where unmanueverable enemy ships are no match. It's seen widespread use in the Eris-II and Gilgan moons campaigns and is currently in high demand.


The Eon Ballistic Mech: The Eon class Ballistic Mech is a medium-range and anti-vehicle mech. Designed by Apexx WarGroup, the Eon has a devastating complement of 25 tracking missile pods that cut through armored units with ease. It's armor is substantial and when used in conjunction with short and long range units, it's presence on the battlefield is overwhelming.


The Kyrios Assault Mech: The Kyrios Assault Mech is considered a masterpiece by Apexx WarGroup's design team. Able to fill any attacking position, the Kyrios adaptability has made it the prize of every wealthy empire. It's equipped with 8 long-range missile pods, mid-range dual HMG's (with inset mortar cannon), and operable claws with plasma modules for close-range carnage. It's armor has few flaws as well and it's speed allows it to switch range easily.


Wolfhound Artillery Mech: The Wolfhound Artillery Mech is a mid to long range heavy support unit. Equipped with 6 artillery cannons, 4 grenade launchers, and 2 dual anti-personnel machine guns, it quickly passed combat testing and was subsequently put on the market by Apexx WarGroup. It's 4 legged design gives it additional balance, speed, and recoil buffers which equals higher combat efficiency.

Other Mechas[edit | edit source]

Other smaller war companies, such as CombatTech industries, produce some mechas as well.





The Marauder Class Meka: The Marauder Class Meka is designed to raid vehicles and bases as it's name implies. Developed by CombatTech Industries, it's 2 dual ion guns stall transport vehicles and it's enormous sawblades rip them open to rob the supplies. This is their limit though, as they have no cargo space or operable way to carry the supplies. More often than not, they are programmed to destroy enemy supplies rather than steal them.

The Rimat Support Meka: Specifically built to rival the Gilga Support Mech, the Rimat Support Meka is a production of CombatTech. It's built with dual 5 barrel heavy machine guns and uses higher caliber rounds to outmatch the Gilga. However, the Rimat's hasty design created some flaws. It's guns produce great recoil which makes it impossible to move while shooting (because of it's leg design). It's increased armor makes it slow to begin with and it's guns have a slight start up delay.
