Granga

ENCOUNTERED Corneria CLASSIFICATION Urban-assault mech OFFENSIVE CAPABILITIES Homing missiles, laser cannons, energy orbs DEFENSIVE CAPABILITIES Hypermobile articulated legs

INTEL Intercepted communications confirm that an independent paramilitary group recently aligned with Dr. Andross has acquired a powerful, single-seat bipedal mech. The mech appears to have been developed primarily for urban assault and designed to achieve rapid dominance in the final stages of planetary occupation.

Specifications for the mech indicate the ability to deliver devastating attacks on stationary targets. Analysis confirms its articulated legs have the potential to smash vital planetside infrastructure such as buildings. Its arsenal also appears to include homing missiles that can be launched from compartments within its arms as well as other energy weapons.

Intelligence agents report that the Attack Carrier—commanded by an Andross loyalist—has been spotted towing the Granga mech. It remains unclear where it will be deployed.

PILOT A militia leader who has been under surveillance for some time, the pilot of the Granga is a newly ascendant Andross acolyte. Contacts describe a sadistic tyrant who delights in mocking his enemies and anyone who stands between him and what he wants.

ASSESSMENT If engaged, employ maneuverable vehicles capable of traversing a wide variety of terrain. Internal engineering review indicates the mech's head is not critical to its overall function and should not be considered a target of focus, though the articulated legs and rear panels may be structural weak points. Sufficient damage to the mech's arms may disable its ability to launch missiles.
