Notes: I have to question what construction workers were doing sitting on such an awesome piece of kit. We can't use the Molior in space due to the nature of it's design but when it comes to ground battles the Molior frame takes on a life of it's own turning what would be a naff unit into a killing machine.

The Molior will up the Zero's terrain class on ground from C to B so that's already a mathematic boost to a majority of effects. We loose a movement square in exchange for thicker armor and a bigger hit point pool but that movement loss is made up for with Anderon's cheap as hell Fleeting SP command.

We don't get as much of an energy boost or a flight pack but that's manageable with what the Molior comes loaded with.

The Grappler is a range 1-6 attack that does zero damage it does however pull any target it hits directly next to the Zero. It can't be use as a counter attack weapon but it's tactical aplications are pretty obvious.

The Mechanical Knife is a post movement point blank close combat attack which is highly accurate with an attack rating of 155 and steals on critical hits. It's inexpensive to use as it drains nothing from the suit.

The Wrecking Ball is a post movement range 3-5 combined attack that's almost as accurate as the Mechanical Knife but clocks in alot more damage at 180 attack power. The wrecking ball will be this suit's primary attack but if energy consumption isn't controlled Anderson can find himself running out of options quickly

Molior Zero is the Molior frame's counterpart to the Aer's Aer Zero attack. It's another point blank post-movement combined attack that requires Anderson to be at 120 morale and have 30 energy to spare to fire off. With an attack rating of 220 it's a point blank Cerberus Hand Cannon.

With it's attacks the Molior has a glaring dead zone for counter attacks at exactly two squares out but it's a great combination of range and close combat wrapped into one neat package. Also...awesome black and yellow warning stripes.
