Assault Specialist Mek

Meka, Cal. Scherbius

Alongside the Recon Log Mek, this was one of the first new-type clockwork meka to be made (though of course, after hundreds of years, no one refers to them as "new-type" anymore — this was simply to differentiate them from traditional clockwork mechanisms that were powered by potential energy.) It was named to commemorate a friend of its inventor, and was originally designed to help people. However, its ability to attack people — thereby avoiding the need to put friendly personnel at risk — subsequently came to be seen as its real strength.
