History of Creation

The development of «Gulay-Gorod» began in response to the need to create a powerful assault platform capable of conducting frontal attacks and providing fire support to allied forces. The name of the mech refers to historical mobile fortresses-Wagenburgs used by Cossacks in the 16th-17th centuries.

Technical Specifications

The mech is equipped with massive armor and an impressive durability reserve. The main weapon is a long-barreled rapid-fire cannon capable of dealing 65 damage to light mechs and 55 damage to medium and heavy mechs. Additional weaponry includes a machine gun for anti-infantry combat.

Combat Application

«Gulay-Gorod» is designed for frontal attacks and fire support of allied forces. When used correctly, «Gulay-Gorod» can become a key element of assault operations, providing a significant advantage on the battlefield. However, maximum effectiveness requires careful planning and constant coordination with allied forces. Optimal use is in combination with the Nagan and Nakovalnya, creating a powerful fire front. Also effective when supporting Serp attacks. The mech is particularly effective in assaulting fortified positions and suppressing enemy firing points. Thanks to the high rate of fire of the main gun, it can deal constant damage to enemy mechs.

Tactical Advantages

  • High survivability
  • Significant durability
  • High rate of fire of the main weapon
  • Capability for combined attacks
  • Effective support of offensive operations

Tactical Disadvantages

The main disadvantage is low maneuverability and turning ability. The mech is vulnerable to artillery and anti-mech units, requiring constant support from allied forces. It is also worth considering the limited effectiveness of basic weapons against other heavy mechs without support.

  • Low maneuverability
  • Vulnerability to artillery
  • Dependence on allied support
  • Limited effectiveness against heavy mechs without support

Veteran Improvements

Upon reaching the first veteran level, the mech gains the ability to launch a powerful rocket with a 90-second cooldown. The rocket can destroy entire infantry squads with one hit or deal 130 damage to heavy mechs and 260 damage to light mechs.

At the second veteran level, the base weaponry is enhanced: the damage of the rapid-fire cannon increases to 65 against light mechs and to 52 against medium and heavy mechs.
