Editing Harvester Tripod (section)

==In All Quiet on Martian Front==
Somewhat slower and smaller than the traditional fighting machines, the effect the Harvester has on the prey creatures is no less impressive. 

With the traditional Defense and Armor of Tripods at 6 and 11 respectively, the only major difference in the base stats is its slower movement of only 6 inches. All in all a pretty standard Tripod, but its in the weaponry where things get interesting.

For dealing with distant enemies, the Harvester carries one Medium Heat Ray which is slightly less powerful than the standard Heavy Heat ray on the Assault Tripods. It only has a 10 inch range +2 power sweep a +3 Power 20 inch focused beam. The true beauty of this tripod is not found at range though, the true beauty is found in assault. The Harvester has a grand total of 4 reaper tentacles, which means that you have 4 melee attacks against the prey creatures with +2 power, perfect for tearing through the foot warrior formations and even dealing with their light vehicles. If the prey are hiding in their fortifications or inside one of the [[Land Ironclad|larger machines]] the Reaper Claw is perfectly designed to dig them out. Instead of 4 attacks with the reaper tentacles, you may make one attack with +5 power. Yes you did read that right.

At 150 points the Harvester is a very good machine to add to your Martian force.
