Colonial pattern armour, ubiquitous across the continent as the primary fighting vehicle of the Royal Army. With crown control fractured after a vicious (but ultimately unsuccessful) rebellion, examples of the Colonial find itself in all sorts of hands. In this case, the city state of Sunlanding.
A dark blue tank with a long gun bearing left with two stripes on it. A pintle heavy machinegun on top of the turret points towards the skies. The terrain is a purple and blue grassy plain.

On-Argent Terestrial Service trooper, backbone of the OTS' military and security wing and a common sight across the many worlds and stations the corporation operated in. Equipped with high-tech gear typical of the corporation, OTS troopers are as much an advertisement as a military force.

S-11 Rebel gunship, the 'Tresspasser'. An older rotary wing design taken from colonial caches either directly or through spacer merchants. The large laser unit on the right side is a new addition to help the machine keep up in modern battlefields, but the extra weight makes it rather sluggish.
Olive drag helicopter with two interlocking rotor blades, a large bubble canopy on the front and a large laser on the right side. The left side has a radiator to help deal with the laser's heat and to balance the aicraft out a little.

Monarchist Scorpion gunship in parade livery. The largest and heaviest mass production gunship operating on Sond, it pairs high thrust with a robust defense combining a PD laser and thick armour plating. A massive hangar queen, the scorpion is nevertheless formidable when its able to get airborne.
Bright orange aircraft resembling a helicopter, with dark blue stripes made up of triangles across it. The nose is drooped down, pointing a large point defence laser directly in front of it. Rather than propellors, it has two large thruster units mounted on arms jutting out from either side.

'Lockpicker' Hardsuit. Supposedly a revoloution in infantry combat, initial performance was horrendously poor, with pilots suffering dizziness, migraines and nasuea due to the unmatured brain-reader system. While the kinks were eventually worked out, lockpickers retain their poor reputation
Bipedal combat vehicle in a dark pinkish red with black stripes. An exposed, orange glowing grille sits at the front of its tall, thin body while a hefty autocannon turret sits at the back.

GMS Sagarmatha, Red-Fort variant. A garrison unit stationed on the planet Eye Burn and scheduled to be replaced by the more modern GMS Everest. Replacement was halted by increased aggression from the Solar Warriors and the mechs were pressed back into service, mostly reinforcing fortified positions.
Wideset dark blue mech with two white missiles on its left shoulder and a box-magazine-fed machinegun in its right hand. While stripes and pink panels break up the panelling and the entire colour scheme is worn, with paint chipped off.

Quickie of some CRM snow-dopes trudging through a snowstorm, mostly as a show of force to the sparse pirate elements operating this far north to send them back into hiding, enabling the north pole watchpoint to undertake new weapon tests in peace.
Three blue and black mechs with single red eyes walking through a snow storm, armed with rifles and shoulder mounted laser batteries. The one on the rear has a larger shoulder battery and a machinegun rather than a rifle. All three mechs have earmuffs.

Heavy Aquatic Mech, modified for land use with an expansive cooling system to replace the original's seawater cooled system which greatly limited out-of-water operating time. Although a bit outdated on the modern battlefield, their thick armour still performs well.
Heavyset mech with claw hands and a single orange eye. Its standing in the middle of a snowy mountain range and steam is leaking from vents on its chest, shoulders and back. A smaller secondary head with three small  red eyes is attached to the main head.

Sorry about the lack of art here, been under the weather lately! This is the Dromedary, so named because of its 'hump' on the upper side containing a laser anti-munition system. Older models of the Dromedary had a much larger LAMS dome which really cemented the name.
LAAC M-MT4 'Dromedary'

Low Altitude Air Craft - Medium Transport - 4th Revision

Post-revoloution modernisation of the venerable platform for continued use by Crown Reconstuction Movement forces as well as export to emerging corpo-states. Since the second revision, civilian liner variants have been proposed and promptly struck down, citing unimpressive engine efficiency and lack of passenger comfort.

Most commonly used to service smaller militaries and more remote CRM installations which lack the facilities to service heavier GEV models. The pictured craft is in northern livery and primarily services the CRM North Pole watchpoint, bringing fresh troops, mail, food supplies, spare parts and on occasion, sanctioned scientists studying the geography and wildlife of the north pole.

Medium infantry of the Crown Reconstruction Movement, wearing bulky cold weather gear for posting to the north pole. Despite its bulk, cold weather gear was designed for the slightly warmer subarctic regions, and troops further north spend much of their time cooped up in barracks and guardhouses
A soldier in thick, desaturated blue combat fatigues, with the upper section featuring a coat that ends 3/4 down the thigh. Over the coat is a vest covered in pouches. They're wearing a helmet with a pair of antennae, one thin, the other thick and topped with a red, reflective cube. At their right side is a stubby laser rifle with a red lens, and across their lower back is a compact anti-tank launcher.

Iteration on the Fairy light mech, working on making it a bit less soft looking, and rather more threatening, to help sell the idea of it being a strange off-world design. The more distinctive elements of the design (big dome, wings, leg thrusters) have been preserved.
A mostly dark blue mech facing the viewer directly. It has digitigrade legs, with large thrusters built into the thighs. Its torso is elongated and resembles an aircraft, it is also painted red, with a dark blue nosecone. Three green sensors and a bulbous IRST system sit just behind the nosecone. A large reflective dome with a single green eye sits where a head would be. Two thin wings protrude from the shoulder, and each bulky forearm contains a green, glowing laser aperture.

A pair of fairy light mechs in high speed mode, blasting over the ground at low altitude on a tank hunting mission. Low flying is a vital skill when it comes to piloting fairies and similar small hovering vehicles as ascending too high makes one a clear target for enemy gunfire.
A squad, red, stubby winged aircraft flying low over flat, grey-green grass. A dark dome is mounted on top of it with a single glowing green eye. A second aircraft, in pink, is flying some distance away, slightly higher off the ground.

'Fairy' Spacer-developed light mech. Favoured by mercenaries operating planet-side, and by pirates operating in space who require better muscle than space-borne infantry. Its an exotic machine, capable of changing into a squat ground effect vehicle for high-speed overland movement.
Bright red mech on a grey-green grassy plain. It has long, digitigrade legs with thrusters built into the thighs, a long rounded torso with four green eyes on the front and a dark dome on top with a fifth green eye. Each shoulder has a large wing jutting out the side, and a rear-facing thruster.

Skeeth the Vile, a skilled rat-man warrior who thinks himself unassailable on the battlefield. Off the battlefield is a different matter, and he's developed an all-consuming paranoia, constantly second guessing his 'allies' and underlings, fearing they may poison him or stab him in the back.
A humanoid rat person wearing segmented armour and a full helmet. The rat person has a greying beard and a missing tail, bandaged at the stump. A large blue cloak billows out from behind him, as does a smaller bolt of cloth tied to the end of his long glaive.

MS-09F 'Dwadge' late production Dom unit from the one year war, staying fairly close to the original design, with only small modifications across the board. It still boasts the heavy armour and high-speed hovering ability of its predecessor, while being better suited to tropical environments.
Incredibly wide, bulky, humanoid mech. It appears thickly armoured, with an armoured skirt around the waist and large, flaring lower legs. Its head is squat, with a cross-shaped visor containing a single red eye. Two thin antennae and two red missiles are attatched to its back, and in the right hand is a small machine gun. The left hand holds a glowing orange sword.

EFGF Frankengouf, a Zeon Gouf pattern mobile suit that's been captured and heavily modified by the Federation. While it maintains the original role of the Gouf as a close-quarters combatant, its weaponry is far more advanced.
Bulky, dark blue mech with white arms and legs. Written across the chest is the letters EFGF and on the right shoulder is a four point star over a crescent. The head features a T shaped visor with an I shaped secondary camera above it.

Desert Type Zaku. A modification on the standard Zaku 2 to better suit it to operations in both the desert and the tropics. The most notable adjustment from the base model is a bulked up torso featuring better cooling systems to allow the machine to work in hot weather.
Wideset, dark brown and light brown mecha. The head is rounded with a single eye peering out of a visor. The head also features a single spiked antenna. The legs and lower knees of the mech have engines built into them, with dark red interiors.

Gogg Custom, a late-war modification of the older MSM-03 Gogg aquatic mobile suit to make it a more versatile surface combatant while maintaining its aquatic capabilities. The main change from the original is a more advanced cooling system for the mega-particle cannons, allowing greater endurance
A wideset mech in dark brown and sand colours. Its arms are long and segmented, and end in large, sharp claws. The centre torso contains two red energy weapon apertures. The head features a red eye port in an upside-down T shape with a singe red eye within.

'Big Box' Heavy mech in use by the solar warriors. While standard box-mechs make up the majority of their forces, these heavy machines are rolled out for assaulting fortified positions, where their thick armour and powerful hammer can be put to best use.
A bleached, boxy mech with thick arms and legs, and a massive pneumatic hammer in its left hand. A second, thinner support arm on the left side helps manage the heft of the hammer. A chipped sun decal is painted on the front of the machine.

Solar warrior sniper. Piloted by the most experience troops in solar warrior units, this particular box-mech model is infamous among garrison forces, and most troops have a grisly story or two featuring them on hand.
Boxy, bleached mech with two vertically mounted ride eyes on its centre torso. A large cannon rests on its right shoulder, and its left side has a secondary, smaller arm coming from the back to aid in loading. A chipped sun decal sits on the central torso.

Spotter boxmech. Almost every squad of solar warriors will have one in their unit, to help co-ordinate fire and designate threats. While they're exceptionally useful, actually piloting one is considered an unpleasant task - the lack of weaponry makes combat even more stressful.
A bleached, boxy mech with a radar dish and camera on its shoulders. A large laser designator with cables snaking out rests in the left hand. Chipped sun decals are present on the torso and the radar dish.

Stationmaster mobile command post. A new design from the recently founded Hydropower Security Office. While essentially just a licence built copy of an already existing design, modified with off-the-shelf components, it fills a missing niche in the River Patrol's current forces.
A hefty, 6 wheeled armoured truck in bright orange, with a small platform off the back with railings. A black stripe goes across one side, with PATROL written in block white capitals. On top is a small radar dome and a spherical laser turret. A small quadcopter drone hovers slightly above the truck.

Looz '40 off-road, of the Könist Hydropower company's River Patrol. Stretching the name to its limit, Patrol Looz '40s operate primarily as rural police units in the areas under the hydropower company's control that aren't bordering a waterway.
A wideset 4-wheeled off-road vehicle painted bright orange, with a dark blue strip across the right side and 'PATROL' spelled out in block capitals on the strip. A bar with 4 lights on it sits above the windscreen, and the cab extends most of the way back, with only a small trailer making up about 1/5th of the vehicle.
