Bassarid Quadwalkers

WIP

Quadwalkers are advanced automatic roving weapons systems designed by the Corumian branch of the Shirley Stock Fund, and employed by law enforcement agencies across the Bassarids.

History

Research and Development

Artificial Nociception Systems

A key element of Quadwalker design is its complex array of highly sensitive and extensively integrated digital nociceptors which allow for the preemptive detection and response to threats which may arise on the field of engagement. The development of this technology, which minimizes the direct threats posed by bombs, missiles, and rockets, is the result of a joint-effort between researchers at the Shirley Stock Fund and the New Zimian Space Exploration and Settlement Agency,

In the Bassarids

In 41.86 PSSC, the New Zimian War League confirmed that it had authorized, as part of an effort to improve the efficacy of local law enforcement operations, the deployment of over 1,000 quadwalkers to cities across the Imperial Trade Union. The decision to deploy these units was made in the aftermath of the rebellions which swept the nation's monasteries and other religious centers in the early to mid 41st era PSSC. Of all units which were deployed, around two-thirds were equipped with non-lethal or less-lethal armaments designed to support crowd control operations in areas of the Trade Union still heavily opposed to the influence of the Council of Courts. The remaining one-third were deployed with lethal weaponry designed to aid local security forces in protecting the Bassarids' far-flung territories against raids carried out by citizens of the Green, and by hostile foreign powers.

Across the USSO

Twelve units were purchased by the government of Eridu after approval by the Hexarchy's Council of Six to deploy on the south border of the Ereshkigal Forest. Notably, these are used to occasionally venture into the forest to monitor the ecosystem and ensure that human inhabitants do not remain for long, as it remains a strict wildlife preserve (while, in practice, a also place to conveniently dispose of unruly prisoners in the north without actually killing anyone directly).
