Biography
Mecha-Stalin’s exact nature is unclear. Theories range
from him being a Cold War attempt to clone Stalin, to
a robot, to the actual Stalin’s head, cut from his aging
body and preserved through Soviet science. With all the
memories of the original, the members of Perestroika
certainly believed in his authenticity. He masterminded
the rise of Perestroika, assembled the members and
set forth the goal of creating a new Soviet Union.
With immense resources and a substantial force of
well-trained troops, Mecha-Stalin came close to taking
over Megalopolis and turning it into a power base, but
was destroyed along with Perestroika’s hidden base
in a conflict with the Sentinels of Freedom when he
engaged the base’s self-destruct. Though the rest of
Perestroika were taken into custody, Mecha-Stalin’s
destruction leaves many questions unanswered.
Capabilities and Motivations
Mecha-Stalin’s body may have been a patchwork
amalgam of technology, but it was still extremely
dangerous and deceptively durable. The multiple
redundancies and lack of needing to protect a pilot
meant that the suit could pack more armor, pound
for pound, than the Bunker suit, and could take more
hits in close combat. This let Mecha-Stalin utilize his
flamethrower and crushing hand to full effect, and if
things got too intense, he fell back behind his allies
to provide fire support with his autocannon. His
mechanical body was arguably the least dangerous
aspect, however, as his technologically enhanced brain
had all of Stalin’s memories and ability to create a cult
of personality, as well as the strategic wherewithal to
create a multi-layered long-term plan for domination.
Upgrades
Mecha-Stalin has ports for offensive and defensive
upgrades, but discovery of the base precluded such
upgrades. As a result, Mecha-Stalin’s body was hastily
assembled and poorly charged. Weaponry like missile
pods would make the suit more offensively capable,
and an increase in available energy would substantially
increase the speed, dexterity, and strength.
