Colossus
Colossus represents the biggest and best that the Ascension military force has to offer. The Colossus is just that - a massive bipedal mech doling out wholesale destruction and domination at every turn. Outfitted with advanced electro-weaponry and high-yield rockets, the Colossus has considerably more firepower than any other unit on the field. However, the Colossus is only capable of being used for a short period (hit points degrade with time), so it is recommended it be used in conjunction with strong offensives and with plenty of support.
