Wargames:Ships:UEF:Ontos Mech

Ontos Mech
First seen in the closing stages of the Belkan War, the Ontos Mech was the first implementation of the UEF's Renaissance of Warfare, taking advantage of the new Belkan technology attained by the UEF.

Details
A natural progression of the successful Minotaurus assault walker, the Ontos was designed to be a superheavy landbased dreadnought, capable of taking an obscene amount of punishment and dealing it right back. Armed to the teeth and beyond, the pilot of the Ontos was encased in more armour than just about any sort of tank seen on the battlefield before or since.

While legs (particularly a bipedal design as the Ontos uses) have often been considered a vulnerability for an armoured vehicle, the Ontos legs are very heavily armoured and incorporate numerous monomolecular blades below the 'knee' joints to prevent tripping. The legs are also weighted down so as to be as heavy as the body to balance out the centre of gravity.

At twenty storeys tall, the Ontos is certainly a sight to behold, and a sight to be feared. It is by no means a fast-moving vehicle, but once it gets there, the battlefield gets really quiet really fast.
