Based on the concept of mixed Trinaries, Goliath Scorpion's military is extremely regimented. Each of the six Trinary types it uses contains a mix of BattleMech, Elemental and Aerospace forces, designed around a tactical specialty.[1]
Trinary Type | Composition | Information |
---|---|---|
Assault Trinary | 2 BattleMech Stars 1 Elemental Star |
- Battlearmor to identify and eliminate ambushes - heavy and assault 'Mechs - used for offensive operations in urban combat |
Battle Trinary | 1 BattleMech Star 1 Elemental Star 1 Aerospace Star |
