[b]Overview:[/b] Purpose built to counter enemy armor, mechs, and hardpoint installations, the Smaug-class proves a favorite of Macro-Armor pilots and XenoNews drone coverage. Also known as ‘The Vertical Tank’, the Smaug is the largest, toughest, and most heavily armed suit of Macro-Armor deployed, rivaling the smaller walkers in terms of height and weight. Implementing naval-style armor and an additional generator devoted wholly to powering additional shield generators, it is a common joke among XenoSoldiers that the only way to kill an angered Smaug driver is to ‘nuke it from orbit, just to be sure’.

 

Pilots are loaded in from the top, and the ‘shoulders’ are lowered onto the frame, including the ‘head bulge’ containing the unit’s ‘Gandalf’ weapon; sealed inside so tightly, most pilots require at least nominal counter-claustrophobia psychosurgery before achieving full DNI synchronization with their Smaug.[/spoiler]
