Cuirassier Destroyer Class, "Deathscythe"

A variation on the popular Cuirassier Walker model, it was designed by the same company who had looked into creating a mobile walker unit that can support infantry with long range artillery fire without the need of trackers or trailers. It went through several designs, it became increasingly more difficult as the military request for bigger artillery guns on these Walkers, this lead the designers to scale down their promises to the military. The Walkers took on medium to long range cannons and even some prototype missile based weapons, they still accompany the infantry, but now had become the answer to enemy Walker units instead of the traditional role of infantry shredder. They still carry two heavy Machine-guns that are remotely controlled on each side of the Walker, the cannon or prototype weapons would sit comfortably in the centre of the Walker to get as much support as possible, they are bi-pedal Walker that can pivot the torso to aim easily with the main weapon of choice. The Walker has medium armour that can change into lighter armour for extra manoeuvrability, it can also have Null Armour, in case the enemy has access to magical abilities.   These Walkers did not replace the trucks and trailers in the artillery companies, but had become a vital part of the army by providing an answer towards heavy enemy Walkers, giving the infantry companies they were assigned to better protection, that a simple Arghead Stick could not give. By all accounts, these are effective against larger Demonic Threats if provided with the right ammo and weapons, while the cost of creating one is cheap for the military.   Cuirassier Destroyer Class are known by the pilots and technicians as the Deathscythe, due to the consistent ability to kill the intended target with just one well placed shot from the main weapon. However, due to these Walkers being created after the 2nd Demonic Wars, along with a few more Classes and Models rarely saw action other than intimation or parade marches, so the nickname is not well known. The variation within this Class is what main weapon the Walker is using, which in turn will lead to a lack of Walker variations for the Destroyer Class.
