Mechs



Mechs a.k.a. Mechanized Infantry Destroyers

Powerful, imposing and merciless, Mechs are used by the Invaders on seek and destroy missions when an enemy has been detected that poses a threat which could be too much for Stalkers to handle. Each Mech comes equipped with 4 Drones which it can launch as needed, four powerful claws that can be used as weapons (though it is unclear if they have any ranged weapons as no survivors who have encountered them and lived have reported such a weapon), and are thankfully not too fast unless they are in their "ball" state, where they can roll up and move at speeds up to 50mph, crushing anything in their path. It is in this ball state that they are dropped and picked up by Mantas for rapid battlefield deployment. Like the Mantas and Drones it is unclear whether Mechs are vehicles, a separate species or a cybernetic organism.

FIRST APPEARANCE

DATA

 * Each Mech seems to carry four Drones which it can deploy as needed
 * Unknown weapon capabilities, however each of the four "legs" ends in a powerful mechanical claw which could easily be used as a weapon.
