The //Melusine// is a later-model armoured fighting suit of the //Strahl Democratic Republic// (SDR). It was developed to combat the later models of the mercenary army's //SAFS// suits. It's very heavily armoured compared to the earlier suits, with a powerful laser mounted in place of the left arm and remote visual sensors (no glass face-plate). | The //Melusine// is a later-model armoured fighting suit of the //Strahl Democratic Republic// (SDR) within the Maschinen Krieger universe.

The //Melusine// shares a lot of similarities with the [[:blog:models_mak_kauz|Kauz]], since the Melusine is intended to have been a later, ground-only suit developed from the //Kauz//. The silhouette is mostly unaltered, except for the removal of the Kauz' thrusters and flight sensors. | The //Melusine// shares a lot of similarities with the [[:blog:models_mak_kauz|Kauz]], since the Melusine is intended to have been a later, ground-only suit developed from the //Kauz//.

===== Tools Used ===== | I absolutely love the twin designs of the //Kauz// and the //Melusine//; they are probably the two favourites of the //SDR// forces - I think it's the really bulky, forward-sloping upper torso that does it... |
