Mech - Independent AC The Forest

thingiverse

This is The Forest, an AC I built around laser rifles and tactical endurance. I've been wanting fun models to play Lancer with. I then set about building a model based on a sniper who deployed beams of light from a distance. This unit specialized in housing a large generator and radiator which it uses to deploy death from a distance with it's weaponry. It utilizes a powerful radar unit and computer system that can cut through most signal jamming, allowing the unit to have clear picture of the battlefield. The arms contain two powerful long range rifles with limited energy round capacity. The shoulder units contains additional capacity for energy rounds for these rifles. A powerful energy blade and energy based laser pistol is held in the hanger of this unit, should they expend their rifles in hand. On their shoulder is an extremely powerful rapid fire plasma cannon. There is enough recoil from this cannon that the mech is required to crouch and begin a charge sequence to engage. This plasma cannon is effective at medium and short range, making a distance closing assault on an embedded version of this mech perilous. Unfortunately The Forest has extremely limited mobility and only mediocre levels of armor, should an opponent successfully close the distance it would be able to dance around the machine. The Model Info Though it's been remade countless times I suspect the model still isn't perfect, feel free to improve / fix. Parts should be nice and chunky for easy printing, with a Soild mesh in netfabb.
