(Many people will ask, why the hell is K.U.T.M taking so long, and you all deserve an answer, the answer is that a short while ago, I was re-visiting the Immortal Blood Wrath walker of Warhead's - and was struck with a bolt of inspiration, a bolt so bloody and violent that it could not be denied - I have spent weeks working on this fucking beast, trying to get the idea in my head into digital beast of war-fuckery, and here it is - Ladies and Gentlmen, I present to you . . . )

- GROUND BASED BEHEMOTH/SUPER TANK/INFANTRY FIGHTING PLATFORM -
- BEHEMOTH MARK ONE -
A Scythian Engineer stands proud as the latest Scythian development is about to be unveiled.
After the emergence of the Immortal Blood Wrath walker during the fall of Fico, and many battles since - The Scythian Empire has been pouring billions of Scythian credits into the research of a new form of "Battlefield superiority tank" - or "Super Tank" for short. This Super Tank would have to be capable of taking down entire Armour columns by itself, while being invulnerable to all retaliatory fire, be capable of destroying enemy Ships that are holding orbital positions, carry and lead entire infantry units into the field, and lead strategic operations on a planetary scale. Originally, this idea proved to be almost impossible, but - now, after months of work and development, The Scythian Behemoth is now available for mass production.
The Scythian Behemoth Super Tank, in scale comparison with the Tarantula Main Battle Tank and Huntsman Command Tank
The Behemoth mounts 6 enhanced dual laser turrets - the same type carried exclusively by the Scythian Emperor class Super-battleship, which are capable of destroying all must the most hardened of targets in a single blast, as well as 2 six barreled heavy anti-air cannons, which are capable of blasting most Ship's apart in all but a few salvos. Across the top "deck" of the Behemoth - there are multiple smaller laser cannons, which can be used in anti-infantry or anti-air roles, these guns can also be manually or computer operated.
Every single component of its hull it double-layered in Armour, and capable of absorbing everything sort of a localized nuclear (or similar explosive) blast against its hull, and is amazingly - Vacuum and Water sealed.
From this room, war across an entire planet can be raged.
The main control deck, which is extremely automated - as the Behemoth contains 4 on-board sentient AI systems (Power management/consumption, Weapons, Locomotive Systems and Battlefield Control AI's) to aid in the Super Tanks operation.
One of two on-board medical units (with the other on the opposite side of the Behemoth) which are capable of bringing all but the most fatally injured back to life, and return them to the field.
The "Lower" Armory deck serves as the center of the bottom floor within the Behemoth, where infantry units can restock and reload before being deployed into the field. It also serves as a defensible position in case the Behemoth is ever boarded by hostile soldiers.
The "Upper" Armory deck also serves as a cross-point in the Behemoth, but is usually used by troops as a firing deck to fire relentlessly onto enemy units below without the fear of retaliation.
The "Main" deck contains central engineering - with two over sized Anti-matter reactors, each one is made up of four separate reactors that operate in unison to create more power than the Behemoth could ever possibly need (Unless of course, it was firing all of its guns at once). It also acts as the staging point for infantry - who are then dropped out of the main ramp directly into the battlefield underneath the Behemoth, using its sheer Armour and firepower for protection.
At this current moment in time - only a handful of these Super Tanks are in service, and they are all in use on the Immortal front lines. Soon however - the Scythian Empire hopes to have at least one (preferably 5) deployed on every colony world as a form of mobile colonial defense.
In the mean time however - All those who feared the Immortals would simply rampage through the Brikverse, will have one hell of a surprise, and soon the mere mention of the Scythian's will strike fear into the most hardened of their troops.
