Ruthless, methodical, merciless, unyielding - these are the hallmarks of the Gropho, one of the largest expressions of the Pelistal Empire’s strength. Although not the ultimate power in the Pelistal Empire, no Nian - Theolodican or Nuimqol - dismisses the power of the Gropho’s fusillades. Even the Gropho’s masters recognize the power of their subjects, and are mindful of it, as a kennel owner is of its most dangerous dog.

Conventional usage

Long range

Conventionally, gropho is being used as longrange artillery units. Powerfull reactor and number of headslots allows pilot to fit enough range extenders to reach optimal range of 800m, or even more.
