Canon Description: Originally a badly damaged prototype of the HRUNTING/YGGDRASIL Mark II[D] 'Geyrion' Armor Defense System, this old combat walker was given a new lease on life as a heavyweight siege platform. The original hydraulics have been replaced with something similar to Project MJOLNIR, allowing the machine to fuction in terrestrial environments. The rotary cannon has been retooled to fire 120mm rounds used in the ventral turret of GA-TL1 Longswords, and the left arm is fitted with a pair of M98 Light Railguns from SP42 Cobra MBTs. The missile pod originally on the left arm has been fitted to the shoulder, with a twin launcher mirroring it on the other shoulder. If that still wasn't terrifying enough, the De-Orbit thrusters have been modified to function as a form of Jump Jet system, allowing Geryon to propel itself through the air.

In-Game Description: This is a design I uploaded almost a year ago. When I'm not building something new (and also bored) I will tinker with some of my old builds, and fix any problems if I find them. This re-upload fixes several things that bothered me:

  • The right leg had a connection that locked one of the joints in place, causing a limp

  • The walk cycle has been improved (find and play the Halo 4 mantis theme while walking to see what I mean)

  • The bullets have been re-colored to look more like bullets

  • Stomping now locks the hydraulics

  • Jump Jet Mode now locks the hydraulics

  • Cockpit Camera issue is fixed

    @spectre118 Sorry for the late reply, I also use high physics. Might just be the game engine being a derp.

    @spectre118 During testing, I noticed the right arm was a bit more wobbly than it was before copying it over to the new cockpit. What physics setting are you using?

    @SpartanSR91 the one with the wonky thruster, it went spinning out of control and then fell off, so it may have gained sentience after all, that or the mechanicus poked a hole into the halo universe and got up to no good, I also found a way to fix the broken thruster /ur to make it look good you’d have to do it on both sides

    @spectre118 Which arm? Did the servos gain sentience again?

    @SpartanSR91 you might need to rebuild the entire arm

    It's achieving sentience!

    It seems the game is fighting back, the main thruster nozzle on the right side falls off as soon as Geryon spawns in, no matter how many times the connection is re-added.
