General Details
Name: Combine
Type (Category): Equipment (Melee)
Reference: TechManual (p. 243)
Description:
Combines are another piece of commercial gear focused on the agricultural industry. This equipment generally consists of a series of rotating blades used to thresh and harvest tall grain crops. Though not intended for combat, the construction materials used in the manufacture of combine blades are generally quite sturdy, to facilitate faster action and less wear. If seen in combat—usually on the arm of a dedicated AgroMech or the front of a farming vehicle—it is likely that sheer desperation brought such a device into play as a weapon, especially as it can only inflict negligible damage against armored units. Against conventional infantry or other unarmored personnel, however, the use of a combine shows not desperation, but cruelty, as this device can shred such soft targets in seconds.
Game Rules:
A combine can be used to make a physical attack. A Support Vehicle cannot use a combine to make any kind of attack.
Against conventional infantry, the combine delivers 1D6 damage; this damage is applied as though the attack came from another infantry unit.
