Description

Name: Tactical Anti-Infantry/Armour Walker
Alias: Spooky Doom Walker
Creator and Manufacturer: Zyanoma War Yards
Weaponry: Three rotating laser emmiters, Four Surface-to-Air tentacles

The TA-I/AW or 'Spooky Doom' Walker, named as such by Tallest Purple when he first saw it, is an all Terrain Quadraped vehicle with three rotating lasers that can fire in almost every direction from the three emmiters on the cockpit body and four Surface-to-Air tentacles. Do not be confused, this means that the tentacles can be used to grasp anything in range of them, whether they be on the surface or in the air.

This is fairly new technology and hasn't been distributed to the Irken military. However during all field tests it has proven itself time and again, especially during the battle of Myakunga, where a squadron of five took out an entire compound surrounded by deadly defenses, with no casualties and minimal damage to all units.

The walker is heavily armoured and medium-heavily armed, though for its size it actually doesn't weight all too much, not requiring much machinery to actually function, so is surprisingly quick.
The Antennae on its head are used for communication, radar and pin-point detection. The cockpit is actually in the upper body behind the military symbol, the military symbol itself is a one-way window.

It has only one found weakness, during the first battle of Myakunga, the native weaponry found the apparent chink. Using plasma based acidic weaponry, they covered an entire unit from antennae to spiked legs tips. After the battle, the damage sustained by the walker, although minimal could have been lethal, under the main body are the legs ball-bearing joints, where there are a number of wires that control the movements of the walker. It was found that the acid was close to burning into the wires and erroding the legs joints. If anything got under the armour and destroyed the joints, the whole walker would collpase and snap in several places.
