(category 2 entry)
this little (relative term) fellow has been brewing for weeks, my thanks and
apreciation go out to all the mech-heads for inspiring me, to Gla-Gla, for
his armature, from which I "borrowed" the joint technology, and my friend
Kyle, for providing feedback as I revised parts of the design over and over
and over. LMKWYT.
*backstory follows*
in response to the growing possibility of urban violence around the globe,
the Civil Response Mecha was developed. now it's latest revision, model 22,
has entered production. a lightweight, agile peacekeeper, the "Enforcer" is
large enough to be an effective psychological weapon on it's own, while at
the same time being small enough to easily maneuver through city streets.
armed with a single AP3 "Phoenix" Automatic Particle Projection Pistol (seen
here: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=29137 ), it packs more
than enough firepower to clear the streets of just about anything. of
course, being a mecha, the only way to truly disarm it is to dismember it,
as a solid punch will flatten an SUV like a tin can. the optical systems
peer out through a narrow opening between the vocalization grille and an
armor plate installed specifically to shield the optics. the profusion of
antennas from the back of the head keep the Enforcer in constant
communication with it's HQ, relaying a steady stream of situational data. of
particular note is the removeable cockpit module, enabling the pilot to
escape in an emergency situation, or allowing the installation of a remote
piloting system, should one be desired. the Enforcer's reinforced titanium
is effectively impervious to anything short of antitank weapons, making it
well suited to operation in even the most hostile of urban environments.
one of the limitations of the Enforcer is it's power supply. the fusion
reactor located in the hip structure is not the most efficient source of
energy, and must be regularly supplied with fresh fuel. fortunately, the
Enforcer has a dedicated Fuel vehicle AND a combined Repair/refuelling
gantry, allowing the unit to be more easily prepped for a sortie, or worked
on while being maintained in a near-ready to deploy state. (the fuel truck
and gantry can be seen here:
