   Wanzers

   • (ヴァンツァー Vantsā) (derived from the German word wanderpanzer; wander for "walking", and panzer for "armor") are a type of bipedal machine that are widely employed by both military and non-military organizations. As a key component of various military combined arms operations, wanzers have been shown to engage in combat alongside tanks, helicopters, fighter jets, and other real-world weapon platforms. As time has gone on, Wanzers have become progressively more standardized, with the modern platform coming in two varieties: Non-combat models meant for civilian applications (such as in civil engineering) and military-grade models. Civilian-grade machines are known as wanderwagens and have a WAW designation, while military wanzers have a wanderpanzer (WAP) designation.

   Mobile Weapons

   • massive, heavy non-humanoid war machines that bridge the gap between traditional wanzers and heavy armored vehicles or artillery platforms.

   • Build and Design: They are roughly twice the height and weight of standard wanzers and feature only a single main body part (unlike wanzers, which have separate arms, legs, and a body). If the body is destroyed, the unit is eliminated from battle. • Firepower & Armor: They are heavily armored and typically equipped with devastating heavy ordnance such as beam weapons, railguns, long-range cannons (like the Long Force Cannon), and massive missile launchers (such as the Buren). • Mobility: They suffer from poor mobility and low evasion against fast targets, making them function best as heavy fire support or mobile fortresses guarded by nimble wanzers. • Classifications: They are generally categorized into multi-legged tanks, multi-legged gunboats, ground gunboats, and mobile fortresses.
