Robots able to be piloted are Separated by faction. There are currently 4 different factions in game, The Pelistal Empire, The Nuimqol Union, The Thelodica Clan and the Nian Industrial Trust. Each of the factions have their own distinct specializations.



Pelistal Empire

Specialization | Missiles

Light Robots

Castel ~ Light Combat

Castel ~ Light Combat

The Castel represents the Pelistal combat ideal: absolutely loyal, absolutely subservient, and ready to march out and do battle to the death in droves. What the Castel may lack in creative or unusual tactics it more than makes up for with its relentless, grinding style of combat. It is said that you will always know when the Castel has been truly incapacitated, because only then will its launchers stop cycling.

Troiar ~ Light Electronic Warfare

Troiar ~ Light Electronic Warfare

Even amongst the Pelistal, Troiars are viewed with suspicion. They represent the eyes and ears of the Ictus, and beyond them, the masters of the Pelistal Empire. Swift and secretive, a Troiar on the battlefield ensures two things: first, that the endurance of the bots facing the Troiar’s forces will be tested, and second, that the Pelistal Empire itself has taken an interest in what you are doing.

Assault Robots

Waspish ~ Assault Combat

Waspish ~ Assault Combat

If the Castel is the horde unleashed by the Pelistal, the Waspish is their taskmaster. In any group of Pelistal, the Waspish can be seen amongst the Castels, providing a harder platform for taking and receiving punishment, drawing attention away from the Castels and allowing them to deal out their own damage. The accuracy and range of the Waspish is unparalleled amongst assault bots, and many are the targets of the Pelistal that have been so softened by Waspish fire that they are easy prey when the Castel tide rolls over them.

Nuimqol Union

Specialization | Magnetic weapons


Thelodica Clan

Specialization | Lasers


Nian Industrial Trust

Specialization | Mining ~ Harvesting ~ Transport

Light Robots

Argano ~ Light Mining

Argano ~ Light Mining

While the Niani Industrial Trust as a group is engimatic, even fewer understand the Argano. Lacking the Termis’s efficiency or the Riveler’s ravenous hunger, the Argano nonetheless contributes well with its small stature. It will never be the most rapid of the mineral harvesters, but Agents who drive the Argano are known for determination and hard work for a reason.

Laird ~ Light Harvesting

Laird ~ Light Harvesting

Few claim to understand the Industrial Trust, or why it works equally and without complaint in all three nations. Fewer still understand the Laird - while the Gargoyle disappears into the woodlands, and the Symbiont will intensely study a flower, the Laird’s simple work ethic shows as it wanders from the tiniest patch of flora to another, harvesting what can be had while gently making sure not to destroy the plant, even as a Mesmer’s shattered remains stand five meters away. In a world torn apart by war... the Laird quietly tends the gardens.

Assault Robots

Sequer ~ Assault Transport

Sequer ~ Assault Transport

The Sequer struggles daily with its place on Nia. Only useful as a carrier of goods, Sequers are well aware that within the ever-more-efficiency-seeking Niani Industrial Trust, only its cheap and disposable cost allow it to compete with the working juggernaut that is the Lithus. So obsessed is the Sequer with remaining legitimate that, unattended and unordered, one can actually witness the bot enter a semi-powered-down status, almost making the little transport worker seem sad or resigned.

Mech

Termis ~ Mech Mining

Termis ~ Mech Mining

Do the Niani Industrials know or care of the war they are supporting? Are they simply automatons of low intelligence, or are they the ultimate puppeteers of a master plan only the Industrial Trust perceives? Does the slumbering giant of Nia’s “fourth faction” exist? The Termis represents this mystery perfectly: a tireless worker, communicating only in regards to its trade, caring nothing for the results of its work - and yet, never ceasing to work as efficiently as it can, for what goals and motivations, no one knows.

Gargoyle~ Mech Harvester

Termis ~ Mech Harvester

While any military-minded individual might question the memory integrity of any bot that spends its day frolicking in the woods, the Gargoyle is notable for the amount it brings home at the end of that day. More effective than the Laird, and far easier to construct and maintain than a Symbiont, the Gargoyle is judged as a reasonable middle ground for anyone needing the bounty of Nian flora.

Heavy Mech

Riveler ~ Heavy Mech Mining

Symbiont ~ Heavy Mech Harvesting

Lithus ~ Heavy Mech Transport

Heavy Gliders

Scarab ~ Heavy Glider Transport
