Welcome to the Central Intramilitary Trade Facility of the Unified Commowealth.

We're very proud to bring you a fine catalog of military biomechanical organisms and other assault systems right from Necros-Vacuia's very own Yaga Installation. Previously, only the top-ranking military commanders of the Unified Commonwealth and the C.G.C. itself could commission these fine creations--now, for a substantial fee, your own nations can benefit from the technology our Commissariat of Defense has for so long depended upon.

We accept United States dollars, and our own Commonwealth vermiis.

(NOTE: Please come prepared to do your own math--our Attendant Drudges, who are themselves biomechanical, are programmed for very few higher functions. Thank you.

Reverse-engineering of any Necros-Vacuian technology will meet with severe consequences.)

Biomechanical Organisms, Infantry/Cavalry Types

RH-223 'Apollyonid', MA-Type

IMAGE NOT YET AVAILABLE

Height: 6'0"
Weight: 353 lbs.
Armaments:
Melee Type-- Olympinite-enhanced claws, Compactable Go'zkuten-ai, EP-767 Chemical Delivery System
Ranged Type-- N/A
Armor-- 'Titan'-Type Olympinite Full-Arm Gauntlets
Overview: The MA-Type Apollyonids form the bulk of our Commonwealth's Army of Oblivion. Created through the dramatic retranslation of human tissue, these Apollyonids have very simple intelligence protocols, consisting mostly of a 'predator-prey' interaction program. This, combined with their natural affinity for melee combat, makes them an excellent massed infantry force, provided you keep all other troops out of the deployment zone. The overall similarity in appearance to a clawed, monstrous corpse also provides a very effective terror element.
Life Expectancy: 35 years/65.7% casualty rate in active duty
Available In:
Single-- $156.99 USD//◊607.59 UCV
Unit of 12-- $2,450.67 USD//◊9,484.82 UCV
Unit of 60-- $15,000.00 USD//◊58,054.50 UCV
Unit of 100-- $2.4 million USD//◊9.3 million UCV

WARNING: Any UN Member Nation found in possession of Apollyonids will be in direct violation of multiple human rights regulations, due to the specifics of the retranslation process.


RH-223A 'Apollyonid', MI-Type

IMAGE NOT YET AVAILABLE

Height: 6'1"
Weight: 548 lbs.
Armaments:
Melee Type-- Olympinite-enhanced claws, EP-767 Chemical Delivery System
Ranged Type-- NM450-AR(ß) Modified Pulse Rifle, NHM659-ATC Integrated Plasma Cannons (arm-mounted), NHM502-ED 'Shrike' Grenade Launcher
Armor-- 'Titan'-Type Olympinite Full-Arm Gauntlets and Breastplate
Enhancements-- CIC-43D Chemical Control System
Overview: Though similar in appearance to the MA-Types, the MI-Type Apollyonids are built to be true, fully integrated infantry units, and as such have much higher-grade intelligence programs running, though the "pred/prey" response is still active and effective. Though not heavily armed or armored, the MI-Types have proven themselves capable of taking down heavy infantry forces on their own, and were instrumental in Necros-Vacuia's own Subjugation War. The CIC-43D system is also an incredible asset to any battlefield commander, allowing him to shift MI-Type behaviors with the mere touch of a keypad.

Unit of 60-- $5 million USD//◊19.35 million UCV
Unit of 100-- $9.2 million USD//◊35.6 million UCV

WARNING: Any UN Member Nation found in possession of Apollyonids will be in direct violation of multiple human rights regulations, due to the specifics of the retranslation process.


BGM-68 'Alpha Hiveling'

http://www.hlfallout.net/images/content/enemies/full/antlion_full.jpg

Alpha Hiveling, shown in one of Yaga Installation's older testing areas. Note the passive stance, with bioplasma cannons still safely sheathed.


Height: 5'7"
Weight: 2,430 lbs.
Armaments:
Melee Type-- Extremely sharp teeth, claws
Ranged Type-- NHM689-EATC Integrated Heavy Plasma Cannon (x2)
Armor-- Olympinite-reinforced exoskeleton (capable of stopping tank rounds)
Enhancements-- 'Daedalus' IAIS
Overview: The size of a small car, Alpha Hivelings are the Necros-Vacuian answer to armored cavalry. With a fully integrated A.I. program and extensive target assessment capabilities, they're both beautiful and deadly. The NHM689-EATC has been known to down aircraft in a few hits without difficulty, and unlike their Apollyonid cousins, Hivelings have a very low casualty rate on the battlefield. Programmed correctly, they even make excellent security patrols!

Life Expectancy: 56.7 years/22% casualty rate in active duty
Available In:
Single-- $556.00 USD//◊2,151.88 UCV
Unit of 10-- $18,344.54 USD//◊70,998.87 UCV
Unit of 50-- $15.6 million USD//◊60.37 million UCV
Unit of 100--$45 million USD//◊174.16 billion UCV


BGM-695 'Beta Hiveling'

http://www.hl2world.com/wiki/images/d/d9/AntlionGuard.jpg

Beta Hiveling, on patrol near the eastern shore of Necros-Vacuia. The healthy blue glow of the back spines indicates this unit hasn't seen much combat.

Height: 6'2"
Weight: 5,900 lbs.
Armaments:
Melee Type-- Extremely sharp teeth, claws, thick head can be used to ram
Ranged Type-- NHM689-EATC Integrated Heavy Plasma Cannon, NHM771-RKAT Integrated RPG Launcher (x2), NHM780-SRM Integrated Biological Derivative Missile Launcher, 'Loki' EMP System (projected through spines)
Armor-- Olympinite-reinforced exoskeleton (capable of stopping tank rounds)
Enhancements-- 'Daedalus' IAIS
Overview: Where the Alpha Hiveling is equal to any armored cavalry division, the Beta is more than a match for most tanks and aircraft. Beta Hivelings were first commissioned by Executor of Defense Yugol Azzare, who stated the need for "extreme destructive power" among the Hiveling class of biomechs. Yaga Installation, as we're sure you'll agree, certainly delivered. These Hivelings are wonderful border patrols and prison guards, as well as fine armor and artillery.

Life Expectancy: 60 years/24.445% casualty rate in active duty
Available In:
Single-- $2,320.60 USD//◊8,981.41 UCV
Unit of 10-- $33,899.99 USD//◊131,203.13 UCV
Unit of 50-- $45 million USD//◊174.16 million UCV
Unit of 100--$1.1 billion USD//◊3.87 billion UCV


BGM-7002 'Delta Hiveling'

IMAGE NOT YET AVAILABLE

Height: 5'10"
Weight: 4,000 lbs.
Armaments:
Melee Type-- Extremely sharp teeth, claws
Ranged Type-- NHM887-(E)EP 'Thor' Integrated Tesla Cannon, 'Loki' EMP System
Armor-- Olympinite-reinforced exoskeleton (capable of stopping tank rounds)
Enhancements-- 'Daedalus' IAIS
Overview: The Delta Hiveling, latest in the Hiveling line of biomechs, is much more agile and lightly armored than its cousins, and looks the part. Don't let that fool you, though-- this bad, blue-armored boy is simply designed for a different purpose. Built originally to help the Necros-Vacuian Overwatch police force, the Delta Hivelings' anti-personnel capacity proved so powerful they had to be integrated into the Army of Oblivion!

Life Expectancy: 57.8 years/29.6% casualty rate in active duty
Available In:
Single-- $1,990.60 USD//◊7,704.21 UCV
Unit of 10-- $18,600.00 USD//◊71,987.58 UCV
Unit of 50-- $20.4 million USD//◊78.95 million UCV
Unit of 100--$134.44 million USD//◊520.3 million UCV

Biomechanical Organisms, Mobile Assault Platform Types

BSV-5901 'Arbiter'

http://www.hlfallout.net/images/content/enemies/full/gunship_full.jpg

Arbiter in flight, shot over the Luclan Ocean. This is a newer model, as one can tell by the patterning on the bio-armor.


Length: 17'9"
Weight: 180 tons
Armaments:
Main Cannon: NHM689-EATC Integrated Heavy Plasma Cannon
Auxiliary Cannon: NHM499-MG Swivel-Mounted Pulse Cannons (x3)
Secondary Armaments: TTASM-04 'Falcon' air-to-surface missiles (x25), CIRAAM-09 'Shrike' air-to-air missiles (x25), HX-9 'FYSU' cruise bombs (x12)
Armor: Olympinite-reinforced bio-plating
Carrying Capacity: 5
IAIS: 'Prometheus'

Overview: A new leap forward in aerospace technology, the Arbiter is Necros-Vacuia's first biomechanical air gunship! Swift, manueverable, and heavily armed, it's the equal of any helicopter ever developed. And unlike helicopters, the Arbiter runs on a bio-plasma core that never needs replacing--it simply has to be fed once in a while. It doesn't even need a pilot! Just upload a subroutine into its IAIS, and you're good to go! The Arbiter makes a superb addition to any air fleet, and is perfect for patrolling dangerous areas.
Life Expectancy: 109.5 years/12% casualty rate in active duty
Available In:
Single-- $456,000.99 USD//◊1.76 million UCV


BSV-6592 'Landstrider'

http://hl2r.tripod.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/constrider2.jpg

Computer model of a Landstrider. Actual photo footage was found to be compromising to Necros-Vacuian national security and cannot be released.


Height: 204'11"
Weight: 115 tons
Armaments:
Main Cannon: NHM1900-C9LW 'Odin's Eye' Xenon Laser Emitter
Auxiliary Cannon: NHM535-HHVMG Integrated High-Velocity Heavy Pulse Cannon
Secondary Armaments: TTCIAVM-11 'Peregrine' all-purpose missiles
Armor: Olympinite-reinforced bio-plating
Carrying Capacity: 3
IAIS: 'Prometheus II'

Overview: The Landstrider is the pride and joy of Yaga Installation, and perhaps our Commonwealth's most famous mobile assault platform. While the three legs may look fragile, the tripod design actually lends incredible stability to the Landstrider, and allows it to perform actions that even most advanced mechs are incapable of. Even better, its subroutines come blank--the Landstrider can literally be adapted to any need you have for it!

Life Expectancy: 124 years/3.4% casualty rate in active duty
Available In:
Single-- $4.51 million USD//◊17.46 million UCV
