its cohort of elite assault MEKKs. The X12 cult of androids also makes regular use of them. They are powered todeliver a hydraulic trigger blow at the point of impact, as well as a high voltage/amperage jolt. Cyber knucklesmay be equipped alongside one ‘general small arms’ weapon. A MEKK may also equip cyber knuckles with aheavy weapon as an extra weapon! Bios may not do this as they cannot replace limbs with weapons/equipment.Cyber knuckles add +2 to combat rating in melee combat (hand to hand) and also do 1D10 damage whenassaulting vehicles.Vehicles And Heavy Equipment Available On The Outer RimAll equipment and vehicles may be ‘retro fitted’, which means that if you purchase a weapon or upgrade, you donot have to use it in a game. If you do this then you must fall back on the basic ‘free’ weapons etc. that the vehiclecomes with when purchased without any upgrades.Equipment can be sold again in between games for half its original price.Vehicle deployment costs include the wages of any vehicle crew included. When you buy a vehicle you will alsoneed to pay some crew to operate it. Vehicles and heavy equipment are always repaired fully in between games.Demolition ‘BotMilitary class, cargo/recovery vehicle. Cost: 5500cr.Armour values (front, side, rear & top): 8Superstructure: 7Deployment cost: 400cr (+150cr for each heavy artillery)Crew: noneMovement: 6”Throttle: noneCombat Rating: 14 (+2 for armour upgrade. +3 for each grubby mauler)Turning score: Unlimited, treat in same way as infantry.Demobots count as a ‘cargo vehicle’ only if they are equipped with two ‘grubby maulers’.Special notes:1) Add +2 to all armour values if armour upgrade installed. (cost: 1000cr)2) Grubby Maulers – the demo droid does not need the ‘hand to hand combat’ skill in order to fight in melee. Ithas a normal combat rating of 14. Add +2 if it is equipped with ‘extra armour’ and +3 for each ‘grubby mauler.’Each grubby mauler counts as a weapon. If one of them suffers a ‘weapons shut down’ result on the internaldamage table, then it cannot be used for recovering salvage anymore.3) May mount heavy artillery – see below.4) It cannot ‘ram’ another vehicle, it attacks in melee as per infantry instead.5) Ignore any references to a ‘driver’ on the vehicle damage tables.6) Counts as 4 models in hand to hand combat.7) Is classed as a MEKK, so benefits from MEKK recovery rolls.8) Treat as a civilian class vehicle for EMP attacks.9) Makes loyalty and bravery tests as a normal MEKK would do.The demobot is a gigantic robot that comes equipped with huge powerful hands, called grubby maulers, whichare very useful for searching through salvage piles as detailed earlier in the section on ‘recovering salvage from asalvage counter’. If the grubby mauler is used as a weapon against vehicle armour, then it will deal 4D6 damageto whatever it strikes if both grubby maulers are equipped. If only one grubby mauler is equipped, then damagewill be 3D6. Grubby maulers also add +3 to the combat rating for each grubby mauler when used against infantryin hand to hand combat. Treat the demobot as an infantry model in a melee situation. If the demobot loses acombat, for every point the winner beats the demobot’s combat rating score by, roll once on the ‘vehicledamage table’.38
When demobots are first purchased, their upgrades are treated in the same way as wardroids, i.e. 10 points tospend initially. There are, however, certain upgrades that a demolition bot cannot obtain due to its enormous size.For instance the ‘technician upgrade’ or ‘tracks’. The upgrades available to demobots are annotated with a small(d) in the upgrade description.Demobots may also replace one, or both grubby maulers with heavy artillery for the following costs.Nova Bombard: +3,500 cr per weapon.Tachyon Rifle: +5,000 cr per weapon.The ‘very difficult to obtain’ rule does not apply to these weapons.This does mean though that the replaced grubby mauler cannot be used for recovering salvage. A Demobot maycomfortably search for salvage (or load it onto a cargo vehicle) with only one grubby mauler, and blast away atthe enemy with one heavy weapon fitted to the other limb, provided one SP is spent on either activity. If the demobot has no grubby maulers equipped then it cannot recover salvage. If it is equipped with none or only one grubbymauler, it is not classed as a cargo vehicle. A demobot needs both grubby maulers equipped in order to carryrecovered salvage back to the drop zone on its own. Demobot weapons have a firing arc of 360 o .Salvage DogCivilian class cargo/ recovery vehicle. Transport. Cost: 4000cr.Armour values: Front: 9; side, rear & top: 8Movement: 6”Superstructure: 6Deployment cost: 250crCrew: 2 (1 driver, 1 gunner)Cargo capacity: 1Passenger capacity:4Throttle: 3”Turning score: 1Not designed for use by MEKK crewmembers.May only be crewed by BIO crewmembers.The salvage dog is used widely by salvage companies as a cargo vehicle for recovered salvage. It is easy to load,as well as small and robust enough to take enemy small arms fire. However it must be protected from enemyheavy weaponry as it will fold like a tin can if hit by anything larger than an arclight blaster. The salvage dog cantake many forms, and are often converted from other civilian class haulage vehicles. They can be equipped withweapons, but are restricted to small arms fixtures as they are not designed for offensive roles. With this in mind, asalvage dog can be equipped with a light machine gun (counts as ‘general small arms’, doing 1D8+2 damage)for 200 cr, or an arclight blaster for 400cr.These weapons are mounted on a rotating pivot mounting with a firing arc of ‘front 180 o ’. Salvage Dogs usuallyhave a crew of two: the driver, and a crewmember manning the machine gun while salvage is loaded. Spaceinside the salvage dog is usually very cramped.39
