Description

The mysterious product of a long-dead alien race, the Sasquatch is one of the NSDF’s greatest assets. It has far and away the greatest firepower of any vehicle, with configurations that allow it to carry multiple missiles, cannons, mortars, and special weapons systems. The Sasquatch’s primary means of propulsion is a titanium-reinforced hydraulic engine, powering the legs at no more than 8 meters per second. Part of this lumbering pace can be attributed to the weight of its thick EDD armour plating, making it a slow, but almost unstoppable attacker.

After the NSDF offensive on Venus, derelict Cthonian structures where found throught the battlefield. These structures held knowledge and volumes of information about a new strain of Biometal; s strain so strong and dense that the metal lost it's gravity-defying characteristics. Thus a new method of locomotion was devised, and with that, the Sasquatch attack walker was born. The first use of these mighty war machines was when Grizzly One was sent to set an ambush for a retreating CCA convoy. Only five where used agaist a multiple-platoon strength convoy, but the CCA column was destroyed in under a minute, far too quickly to orginize a proper counter attack. Since the Sasquatch uses legs to move, it is by far the slowest vehicle deployed by the NSDF. Due to the arrangement of the primary cannons (one on each side of the torso) it is difficult to hit a small moving target, but it can easily destroy enemy defensive structures.

Variants

Sasquatch AG

The Sasquatch AG is a much more heavily-armed variant of the Sasquatch, carrying dual MAG cannons and a Splinter mortar as standard.
