Titan: Infiltration - Available Mobile Units

Light ARS ASU

Medium ARS ASU

Heavy ARS ASU

The Automated Repair System ASU is one of the most important mobile units available. It is comparatively quick and cheap to manufacture and can breathe new life into units that have been heavily damaged in battle or run out of fuel before they were able to return to their outpost.

As with other ARS units, the ARS ASU uses a scaled-up implementation of the ARS component that can be fitted to all units, enabling them to attempt localised repairs based on respective component priorities driven by mission profiles. It is coupled with industrial grade short range replicators that allow for surgical precision in the removal of irrevocably damaged items and their replacement with newly created counterparts.

Additionally, the ARS Units can carry additional fuel reserves which are replenished when they unit is garrisoned to an outpost equipped with refuelling pods. These fuel reserves can then be used to refuel other mobile units to allow for their recovery or to continue with the mission as planned.

Light Assault ASU

Medium Assault ASU

Heavy Assault ASU

As with ships, the Assault ASU is the highest specification bot available in terms of component slots and upper limits on maximum configured mass, heat, and power output. It can be configured in either a defensive mode to provide protection for other units or in offensive mode where it leads the charge!

Light Comms ASU

Medium Comms ASU

Heavy Comms ASU

In keeping with other comms units, the comms bot is designed to be equipped with comms extenders to greatly increase the distance over which it can maintain communications with the resource network. It can also be equipped with comms jammers which will attempt to overpower and disrupt the comms extenders of any enemy units in range, thereby preventing any units it is providing coverage for from receiving new orders. This can be highly disruptive to enemy strategies if used effectively.

Light Deployment ASU

Medium Deployment ASU

Heavy Deployment ASU

Aside from the initial complement of officers, the deployment ASU is the only other hardware available at the start of any mission (excluding action training missions available in the simulator once unlocked for a given island). Its first action is always to build the initial command centre so a secure connection can be established to the star ship and its command team in orbit.

The deployment units all work by preprograming their nanotech payloads to create the desired structure upon detonation. The nanotech will restructure local surroundings and use the energy released to fuel the construction of the desired unit. They are not, however, used to create mobile units – this takes place in the respective outpost.

In addition to garage outposts, the command centre can also create Deployment ASU's, albeit at a reduced throughput – if the ASU is lost before command centre construction is underway, a new drop ship must be requested from orbit which can take some time and will leave you at a disadvantage compared to other combatants so be sure to take good care of it – some of the wildlife is not friendly and deployment ASUs have very limited offensive and defensive abilities.

Light Recon ASU

Medium Recon ASU

Heavy Recon ASU

As with other recon class units, the recon bot is designed to be fast, agile, and loaded with stealth – it is a small unit and ideal for leveraging the cover of forests and wooded areas to further reduce its visibility.

Typically equipped with a range of technologies to scan the offensive and defensive might of enemy installations, it provides invaluable strategic data to help shape the decisions made by both the command team in orbit and the combat computers installed in the various unit’s planet side. As new intelligence is discovered, it is distributed in real time across the RTN and comms networks to update all other unit AIs.

Recon units can, as with deployment units, be equipped with environmental scanners that are used to build up a more accurate picture of local environmental conditions which can impact everything from reactor placement to what countermeasures to equip units with (thermal vision and stealth are more effective in colder conditions, for example)

Light Assault Ship

Medium Assault Ship

Heavy Assault Ship

Of all the ships available, assault ships have the largest number of component slots and the highest configuration maximums for power, heat, and mass, allowing those slots to be fully exploited to create a formidable war machine.

They are also the only ship that is capable of being equipped with long range missiles that other units can call upon with the long-range fire control component.

Light Recon Ship

Medium Recon Ship

Heavy Recon Ship

A recon ship is, by design, a low specification unit. It is not designed to carry heavy weapons or armour, but it is designed to be fast, agile, and stealthy so that it can travel deep into enemy territory largely undetected and undertake a detailed threat assessment of the forces in the area to formulate a stronger strategy for capturing that area.
