Recognition notes
The Helepolis HEP-1H is a 75-ton heavy that moves at a plodding 22 km/h, topping out at 32, a crawl for its weight class. Its firepower is scattered across ranges: a Large Laser in the left arm, a Sniper in the right torso, an SRM 6 in the center torso, and a Medium Laser in the head. Eleven single heat sinks manage the engine's output, and primitive armor plating covers the frame. Reinforced legs give it a stable firing platform, and Ceres Metals Industries builds the type at Ward, with production also carried out at other sites.
