Gunbound Mobiles Types are defined by the fundamental nature of the Mobile’s armor, chassis, and propulsion system. In general, there are three basic types.
Mechanical Mobile
Mechanical Mobiles are equipped with thick physical armor typically made of combinations of tough, light alloys and ceramics. The chassis and propulsion method of mechanical Mobiles is also mechanically-based or enhanced. Of the three original civilizations of Londe, the Huboei developed the greatest mastery of mechanical technologies thanks to the mineral richness and extreme geological activity of their territories. Mechanical Mobiles are typically equipped with impact and explosive weaponry. Mechanical Mobiles are particularly susceptible to electrical attacks, which have the ability to pierce their armor.
Highest overall defense. Armor particularly effective against impact weapons (+4%)
Weak against electrical attacks (-4%). Comparatively poor mobility due to mass of armor.
Shield Mobiles
Shield Mobiles are equipped with defensive fields that provide protection from attack. Shield Mobiles have much lighter armor than Mechanical Mobiles because thick armor interferes with field projectors. Some Shield Mobiles developed by the Adium are so light that they are able to use shield technology for their propulsion as well. The Adium possess the greatest mastery of energy of the three original civilizations. They achieved this mastery through the study of artifacts attributed to a legendary First People of Londe. Shield Mobiles are typically equipped with beam and other energy weaponry.
Defensive shields particularly effective against beam weapons (+4%). Protective Shield can recover lost potency over time.
Weak against impact weapons (-4%). Typically low HP.
Bionic Mobile
Bionic Mobiles rely on biological creatures for chassis, armor, and propulsion. The Miramo developed the greatest affinity with other living things, and as a consequence, developed the greatest arsenal of Bionic Mobiles. Bionic Mobiles are typically equipped with impact weapons.
Natural bionic defenses particularly effective against electrical weapons (+4%). Healing items have the greatest effect on Bionic Mobiles.
Particularly susceptible to beam energy weapons (-4%). Bionic Mobiles are equipped only with natural armor.
