Mechbeth

ENCOUNTERED Macbeth CLASSIFICATION Experimental security drone OFFENSIVE CAPABILITIES Iron spears, charged bombs, energy beams, tail spear DEFENSIVE CAPABILITIES Armored shell

INTEL Sources report that a first-of-its-kind winged security drone designated "Mechbeth" has undergone preliminary testing on Macbeth—now confirmed to be the weapons-manufacturing hub for Andross's army. This drone, code-named Project: Benjamin, was last seen aboard a supply train that is crucial to the flow of resources and munitions between factory depots. Intel suggests the enemy is currently using the Mechbeth to protect this train.

Leaked design documents describe a highly advanced drone with a diverse array of offensive capabilities. It is a weapon that can launch iron spears from its head segment, strike powerful blows with a tail spear, and rain down a storm of charged bombs. Meanwhile, its wings can collect energy and then emit powerful beams to devastating effect.

In its current, early stage of development, the Mechbeth's attacks are believed to consume large amounts of energy. An internal power generator has yet to be miniaturized to fit aboard the drone itself, so the Mechbeth must remain tethered to an external power supply.

ASSESSMENT The Mechbeth is yet another deadly creation born from Andross's weapons manufacturing hub. Should our forces have the opportunity to destroy it while it's still in the experimental phase, they should do so.

But note, our sources indicate the drone is armored and designed to withstand heavy fire. They advise targeting the Mechbeth's more vulnerable head and tail segments. Additionally, our analysts believe the drone's external power supply is currently located somewhere inside and toward the rear of the train and is also vulnerable to weapons fire. Striking this power supply is expected to destabilize the Mechbeth temporarily and create an opening for attack.
