The Scavrat’s one and only Ogre battle walker was originally discovered alongside the Destroyer in Arrow Cache A, where it lingered unusable for years. Unlike the Destroyer reclamation project, which was facilitated by compatibility with Sisterhood tech, the Ogre was a foreign chassis, possibly an enemy capture during the Great War. Elder mechanists applied the full extent of their jury rigging skills, but a lack of compatible leg actuators and internal structure made the project impossible. Such parts were only known to exist within the Prelacy Ascendant’s Archon fleet, and the Union had not yet established a relationship with the hyper isolationist Prelacy.

 

But, as they say, necessity is the mother of invention. And of deception. Thus it was that the Union’s High Council orchestrated an antagonistic, and ultimately lethal, first contact scenario between Sisterhood and Prelacy walker forces. Once the smoke had cleared, the requisite parts were scavenged, and the Ogre was reborn. Fortuitously, the ongoing supply of battle salvage created by those now-warring city-states will feed the Scavrat’s armed forces for generations. Long live the Union of Scavengry and Recrafting! Long live the Scavrats!

 

Well, that’s its for now for the Ogre. You may notice I changed out a few colours from the first batch of photos. This is one of my favourite builds, so I hope you have enjoyed it as well. The Scavrats are one of my favourite factions, so I’m sure this won’t be the last we see of them.
