Colbalt Ice primarily depend on the might of it's individuals, rather then machines. As a result, most "tech' are upgrades and additional training for the troops. Below are upgrades completed without the help of the Training Center.
`````
Military Espionage: (80 days) It is impossible to sneak attack against Colbalt Ice and its ally. By utilizing operatives, technological cover, such as invisibility will fail to create a surprise attack.
Teleporters (50 days): Using the ancient technology found in Warp Pipes, teleporters have been built between allied bases to facilitate travel. Due to the difficulty of building a pipe line to space, teleporters were used instead of the normal Warp Pipe.
Kabbatic Storm (150 days) Has been upgraded to Excess Express:
A somewhat sentinent floating iceberg. It is both large and slow. However, it's attack and defensive strength are unmatch. The main method of attack is unleashing bolts of ice to freeze its target. To deal with foes at close range, it can rapidly drop the temperature surrounding it or let off a hypnotic light. The main aspect is the blizzard that always surrounds the machine. Due to using all possible room for weapons, it does not carry troops.
Cypher: (80 days) The Cypher is quick and agile machine, about the size of a disc. Its anti-gravity system allows it to fly easily through the air with little sound. This machine is mainly used for intelligence gathering. In peace time, it guards Poshley Heights against attack with its advance survelliance system, covering all possible ways of evading the naked eye.
In battle, it has a single laser that pierces nearly any material. However, since the laser is so fine, the damage is minimal. As such, the Cypher is best used for assassinating a machine operator while leaving the machine intact. The Cypher is also highly proficient at hacking.
The metal coating making up this smooth disc-like machine was found after an invasion by an army from another dimension. This coat reflects all projectiles, but direct physical attack still cause damage. The armor is quite durable.
Excess Express (200 days):
When the Kabbatic Storm was upgraded, it became a perfect replica of the Excess Express! Only Pennington's genius could've changed an iceberg into a train.
Attacks:
- Smorg Miasma: Using an army of Smorgs, they form the Smorg Miasma. There are two form to the Miasma. The Defensive Form has 3 relatively short tentacles, each one raising the defensive strength of the body. Each tentacle is capable of dealing decent damage.
The Pincher Form consist of one long tentacle, which also raises the body's defense to a lesser extent. However, the Pincher Form deals twice as much damage at a longer distance while also hitting multiple targets.
Finally, the Smorg Miasma is able to assimilate captured troops and use them as a body shield.
- Nitro Honey Syrup
The Chef Shimi of the Excess Express is now serving up a heaping helping of Nitro Honey Syrup. This liquid is highly explosive. Launched from cannons, rounds containing the Nitro Honey Syrup is kept in seperate compartment. Upon impact or control, the contents are combined, resulting in a sticky, yummy game over for the target. It is also highly corrosive. Nitro Honey Syrup from the Excess Express can't be used as an item.
- Cowcatcher
It's the thing in front of the train that clears out obstacle. Having been sharpened to a fine paper edge, it allows the Excess Express to drive straight into fortified positions and machines.
- Snow Warning
With a toot of its horn, the Excess Express can bring forth a snowstorm. It doesn't hinder the train at all, but it's sure to slow down other machines. Doesn't last forever.
