“Oh what a prank the Dark Waters played on the hated Splugorth on D’zazzi! I shall never again accuse them of being humorless ever again! To think they fooled the Kittani into believing their ernstwhile allies had opened fire on them in the eternal fog and drizzle of that world, and pushed them into burning the mollusks’ hive! The Splugorth’s tech-comms are STILL buzzing about that ‘betrayal’! If only we could listen in on what the Metztla have to say about that incident! I imagine the shells are even MORE annoyed and angry!”

EcoS-K-63 ‘KillWar’ Warmount[]
aka ‘Gun-Snail’, ‘Die-lek’, ‘Sydney’
The KillWar is another new Dark Waters Warmount design that is meant to emulate and provoke the Splugorths’ Metztla minions. Just as the prior ‘Shelong’ was based on the Kreelong Carapace, the ‘KillWar’ is based on the Kreewarr Carapace drone caste. The Dark Waters’ sudden interest in aping the Metztla may come as a surprise to observers of the Tribes, but it is really an extension of their specialization (at least on Rifts Earth) in marine combat. Given the amphibious range of the Dark Waters’ combat operations against the Splugorth, they come in frequent contact with the Metztla, whose mollusk-like physiology and marine capabilities make them natural elements in Splugorth submarine defenses, and thus natural enemies of the Dark Waters. Arguably the Dark Waters’ earlier EcoS-K-26 Nautika Warmount was inspired by the Muren Metztla, and was often mistaken for one when it first appeared.
Like its inspiration, the KillWar is a slowly walking engine of destruction, a walking gun turret. Lumbering forward, clad in heavy armor, and spitting death from its heavy weaponry, the KillWar can act as an anchor for a combat line, or a brute force wall-cracker and siege-engine.
The KillWar is also one of a handful of Warmounts that dispense with external saddles in favor of internal cockpit-style spaces. To anybody other than a Dark Water, these cockpits are oppressively small and claustrophobic, amounting to little more than a padded coffin-sized space or roughly humanoid-shaped socket, but for the ‘vehicle Tribe’, the accommodations are perfectly acceptable and functional.
Also like the Kreelong/Shelong, the KillWar’s major shortcoming is its lack of an equivalent amount of armored protection compared to the Kreewarr, even with advanced Shemarrian metallurgy providing advanced armoring materials. To compensate, the KillWars mount other defensive features and weapons. Against actual Kreewarr, however, the KillWar’s best option is to keep the range between them opened up while the Shemarrians use the superior range of their weapons to bomb the Metztla to pieces.
Use[]
KillWars are too slow on land to make effective blitzkrieg cavalry Warmounts. Instead they are used in defensive postures or siege warfare, where their lack of mobility doesn’t pose a liability. KillWars have been used, like the Shelongs, on a number of occasions to bait the Metztla into traps, putting up spirited (and apparently forlorn) defense against the advancing psuedo-mollusks and their allies until the Minions have been drawn into prepared killing grounds. And on one occasion a covertly landed force of KillWars was used to trick a Kittani aerospace taskforce into bombarding a nearby Metlza enclave, further inflaming tensions between the Metztla and Splugorth. As with the Shelongs, the EShemarrians were careful to visibly expand the distribution of this particular type of Warmount to other Tribes beyond the Dark Waters after several putative raids on Metzlta enclaves, giving the impression of captured Kreewarr pressed into Shemarrian service. Besides the Dark Waters, the KillWar has begun appearing in numbers with the Silvermoons and Skullcrushers, the former because of their strongly defensive and formation-based strategies, and the latter because of their grimdark love of brute firepower (plus EVERYBODY wouldn’t be surprised by the Skullcrushers mutilating their enemies).

Special Systems[]
Rotating Turret Joint[]
Unlike the Kreewarr, the KillWar can rotate its upper dorsal body like a regular weapons turret a full 360-degrees.
Molecular Grippers[]
The feet of the KillWar are fitted with molecular adhesion pads, allowing the Warmount to attach itself to slick surfaces and spacecraft hulls.
Anchor Pylons[]
The KillWar can deploy Glitterboy-style anchor pylons from its feet, driving deep (15 ft) achors into the ground, bracing the Warmount against shockwaves (as from close-proximity explosions).
Weapons Systems[]
Heavy Cannon (1)
The main and most prominent weapon of the KillWar is the dorsal ‘bio-cannon’. The Shemarrians have shown their love of heavy firepower in outfitting the KillWar with a variety of heavy weapons. The Heavy Cannon has a full 360-degree arc of fire, 90 degree elevation, and 30 degree depression.

GR Cannon[]
Range | 5 miles |
---|---|
Range2 | 10 miles space |
Damage | 4d6x10 MD 20 rd |
Rate of Fire | EPCHH |
Payload | 300 bursts |
Adapted starship weapon, fitting in with the Shemarrians love of projectile weapons.
Can carry additional ammunition in external armored (300 MDC each) panniers carried on the backside. Each magazine pod holds an additional 300 bursts. Up to four can be carried.
Quad-Barrel Particle Wave Cannon[]
Range | 5000 ft |
---|---|
Damage | 1d6x10 MD per barrel |
Damage2 | 2d6x10 MD double, 3d6x10 MD triple |
Damage3 | 4d6x10 MD quad |
Rate of Fire | ECHH |
Copied from a Naut’Yll weapon, modified to mount four barrels for extra damage, and typically used to sew confusion as to the exact origin of the attack (especially when used in murky waters from underneath a vessel).
Heavy Plasma Cannon[]
Range | 8000 ft |
---|---|
Damage | 5d6x10 MD 10 ft area |
Rate of Fire | ECHH |
This weapon is favoured on the Skullcrusher Killwars and on the few Blood Riders ones. Boasting heavy damage, good range and area damage.
Optional Hot-Shotting[]
This system augments the normal air-draw plasma re-mass system with deuterium-gas injected into the plasma flow for a cleaner, hotter, more potent ‘burn’. The deuterium is stored in pressurized cylinders attached to the feeds of the cannon. This allows the plasma to do 50% more damage, but the weapon now has a bit of a recoil due to the more powerful plasma acting like a crude plasma drive (-1 to strike). This system normally has enough internal tankage for 12 enhanced shots, while using the secondary shell pod slots for gas storage gives an additional 30 shots per pod used for this purpose. Can carry additional fuel in external armored (300 MDC each) panniers carried on the backside. Each pod holds an additional 30 blasts. Up to four can be carried. If compromised or set on fire, the fuel pods can be ejected.
Plasma Torpedo Launcher[]
Range | 4 miles |
---|---|
Range2 | 10 miles space |
Damage | 1d4x100 MD, 40 ft radius |
Rate of Fire | Single, 3/melee |
Another adapted starship weapon from the Blood Riders, usually found only on Blood Rider Killwars.
Plasma 'Sharpshooter'[]
Range | 165000 ft |
---|---|
Damage | 1d6x10 MD |
Rate of Fire | ECHH |
Adapted fighter weapon with relatively light damage, but incredible range (especially for a plasma weapon).
Tachyon Accelerator[]
Range | 82000 ft |
---|---|
Range2 | 1d20x10 MD |
Damage | Unknown |
Rate of Fire | 4 /melee |
Another adapted starship/starfighter weapon, excellent for attacking large groups of targets, although at shorter range.
Can also fire a 'spray blast' that does 1d8x10 MD to a 45-degree arc, but reduce range to 40,000 ft.
Plate-Pods (2)[]
Mounted behind the dorsal plates adjacent to the bio-cannon are two valved armored plates concealing modular spaces. In the original Kreewarr, these would hold lung-like chemical sprayer glands, but the EShemarrians have made the spaces compatible with a variety of different systems, larger than the Monstrex-standard accessory weapons modules more commonly used by the Shemarrians (and dating back to the pre-Awakening).
Chemical Warfare Sprayers[]
Range | 200 ft |
---|---|
Damage | varies by chemical |
Rate of Fire | 1 / melee |
Payload | 50 applications |
Covers a 100 ft area. Depending on wind conditions, the cloud typically lasts 2d4 melees before dispersing, or 1d8 minutes indoors and in stagnant air.
The Dark Waters typically use the sprayers to deploy smoke or anti-laser aerosols.
Payload: 50 application reservoir per pod. Can carry additional ammunition in external armored (300 MDC each) panniers carried on the backside. Each magazine pod holds an additional 50 bursts. Up to four can be carried.
Targeting Sensor Arrays[]
Each slot can be used to mount improved targeting sensors. One adds a +2 to strike with the turret-mounted weapons. Mounting TWO arrays gives a +4 to strike with the Main Cannon, and a degree of redundancy to targeting.
Forcefield Generators[]
Mounts an aerospace fighter-grade variable forcefield generator in the slot (two can be mounted, taking up both slots). Each generator provides 200 MDC per side (although typically this is more like 300 MDC per side, as the ground arc of the field is shunted to the upper portions.
Mini-Missile Launchers[]
36 per pod
Short Range Missile Launchers[]
18 per pod
Medium Range Missile Launchers[]
6 per pod
Torpedo Launchers[]
Found with dedicated deep water deployment KillWars. Each pod can hold 36 mini-torps OR 18 short range torpedoes OR 6 medium range torpedoes

A patient combatant, which makes it an excellent warmount for artillery and defense roles. Once engaged in close combat, it is blood thirsty to its enemies.
Ecotroz Fragment[]
The Ecotroz intelligence fragment inhabiting the ‘bot gives the KillWar an aura and behavior more befitting a sentient being than a robot. The Killwar is a patient, plodding, but ultimately bloodthirsty beast, that will ignore damage to itself to wade into its enemies and slay them. It also has a reputation for being something of a glutton, constantly drinking water or chewing ice to cool and fuel its plasma powerplant, and eagerly devouring rock, metal, and megadamage materials to keep regenerating its heavy armor.
The Ecotroz fragment does occasionally need sleep/rest...though they only need 2 hours of rest/meditation per 24 hours...they can push this, going without for as many days as they have I.Q. points (most Warmounts, unless otherwise noted, have an effective IQ rating of 8), but will have to go dormant for 4d6 hours after such exertion.
Note also that the Ecotroz-possessed ‘bot can infect other bots with the Ecotroz viral-entity, by bite or sustained touch (takes 3 attacks).
Options/Upgrades[]
Tail Blades[]
Adds flip-out vibroblades down the length of the tail. +4d6 MD to a tail strike/lash.
Mace Tail[]
Arguably copied from Triax robot weaponry.+2d6 MD to a tail strike, +3d6 MD if electrified. Can also fire an electrical blast that does 3d6 MD, at a range of 1,000 ft.
Blast Mace Tail[]
Arguably copied from Gargoyle weaponry. +4d6 MD to a tail strike, plus fires off a powerful electrical jolt on contact that requires a save vs non-lethal poison (16 of better). On an unsuccessful save, the victim loses initiative and 1 APM, and is -2 ro strike, parry, and dodge for the rest of the melee. 40% chance of knocking out communications , targeting, and radar systems in power armor and EBA for 1d4 melees.
Resin Gland[]
A biomechanical graft on the chest of the Warmount that exudes a quick-setting adhesive the Warmount can use to glue debris onto itself as camouflage or applique armor (can add up to 800 MDC each to forearms and forward portions of the main body. The glued-in armor isn’t as sturdy as properly fitted plate, though, and takes DOUBLE damage from physical strikes such as megadamage kicks, punches, melee strikes, and projectile attacks. It’s claimed that some Skullcrusher Killwars have glued still-living Splugorth Minion prisoners to their front portions just before battles.
Variants[]
EcoS-K-63Sm[]
Silvermoon variant, armored in laser-reflective mirror-chrome (lasers do HALF damage). Any laser weapons integrated into the EcoS-K-63Sm have 25% greater range and damage.
