Category:Eclypse: Difference between revisions

Ever since the Throgg invaded a whole new world of technology was owned to weapons research. While limited success was found in integrating some bio-mech components into conventiona mecha, nothing was as ambitious as Project Eclypse nestled in some top secret weapons research facility on some forgotten moon of a gas giant in the Collandra System.

Bio-mechs are able to generate some sort of energy from their tissues unimaginatively named bio energy. While this is near limitless so long as Throgg flesh is sustained, it isn't the most convenient energy source. Project Eclypse attempted to get at the source of Bio-mech power. The answer they found was pulse wave.

Pulse wave power manipulates energy and matter on a subatomic level. It tends to leave a lot excited glowing matter in its wake, making any pulse wave technology highly vivid in brightness, though a variety of colors seems to be capable depending on the style of manipulation. The Reaper in particular is known for its vivid red color scheme. Four weapons platforms were born from project Eclypse; Reaper, Lucid, Ragnok, and Shinigami.

Not only could pulse wave destroy however, it could create. The system could generate and maintain cohesive energy constructs at a far greater efficiency then any previous mech-mounted shield or weapon system to date. It wasn't long before all Eclypse mechs were mounted with shields that run constantly, mitigating any inbound damage.

The project was nearing completion when the Scourge Infestation reached the Collandra System. The outter worlds fell first, but not before sending a distress call to the rest of the planets orbiting the star. Commander Avalon activated project and the first battalion of Eclypse mecha were unleashed, repelling the invading force and halting the Throgg advance.

Eclypse mechs all tend to have swooping biological curves to their makeup and incorporate highly exotic materials into their build which makes them rather hard to repair. There's some stipulation that they may even be grown more then actually designed. Whatever the case may be, the exact methods for their production is kept under rather strict secrecy and until only recently only the best of the best were given the privilege of piloting them.

Ecylpse Mechs have rechargeable shields and high attack power but are limited in options
