[. . . ] The ED mainly uses them to repulse enemy attacks. Their heavy armour makes them extremely resistant and they can inflict appreciable losses on any opponent. Its fighting prowess can be tremendously increased by attaching add-on equipment. Gruz This is a heavy construction vehicle equipped with front-mounted excavation buckets. It is used for constructing buildings, digging ditches and tunnels, and levelling ground. A rear-mounted construction module contains most components needed to build important structures. Ural Although the Ural has less armour and strength then the Kruszchev, it makes for up for its lack of armour with greater firepower. The Ural is the ED's hardest hitting ground unit and has two hardpoints for weapons. Often used as a command vehicle, the Ural can carry a banner or noise generator and still carry up to two other weapon systems. Taiga This is a heavy-transportation vehicle used originally for cutting trees in the Taiga forests. The ZK Taiga is currently assigned to hauling containers between mines and refineries. A powerful generator enables add-on systems, such as laser weapons, or other equipment to be attached. With these attachments, it is often used as a support unit. Caspian The ED Army needed an amphibious vehicle capable of operating in swamps and flooded areas. So they developed the TK101 Caspian from an armoured infantry transporter. The transport bed was replaced with a highly efficient generator, giving it more than enough energy to power any special add-ons. On solid ground, the vehicle uses all-wheel drive; on water, it is driven by rear and front-mounted propellers, giving it tremendous speed and manoeuvrability. When equipped with a light weapons system, it is often deployed in rough terrain as a reconnaissance vehicle. Siberia The Siberia model was designed during adaptation of the ZK series for military purposes. The Siberia is armoured, but unlike the ZK Taiga, is also fast and light. The reduction in weight was possible because the ZT 100 Siberia was not intended to be used as a transportation unit. The powerful generator remains unchanged, enabling the user to attach the usual extra equipment. The ZT series is the mainstay of the ED support units. Minelayer After war broke out in 2140, construction began on a vehicle that would be able to mine large areas in a short time. This led to the development of the Minelayer. During the development process, however, the scientists luckily stumbled across a design for a laser mine detector, which they immediately incorporated into the Minelayers. This detector finds mines quickly and detonates them from a safe distance. Volga When the scientists at the Kurtchatov Research Centre started work on an amphibious tank, the first thing they did was reduce the armour. The TL 70 model is the result of these experiments, which were partially successful. [. . . ] It can take over the control of meteorite showers and redirect them toward enemy units and structures. This structure is powered by electricity. Right after you've built it, the WCC starts loading up its batteries. Once they're full, the structure is ready for action. [. . . ]
