It can make use of all of the GM's weapons and equipment, with a few options available to it and not the original GM. RMS-179 GM IISize: Gargantuan (59 Ft) (-4)Bonus Hit Points: 410Superstructure: Titanium AlloyHardness: 12Armour: Titanium AlloyBonus to Defense: +1 (+5 armour -4 size) /+7 (+5 armour +6 shield -4 size)Armour Penalty: -4Reach: 15 ftStrength Bonus: +24Dexterity Penalty: 0Speed: 50 ft, 3500 ft spacePurchase DC: 51SlotsHelmet Oracle Targeting System (+2)Visor Class III SensorsCranium Vulcan WeaponBack Improved Deep Space ThrustersLeft Arm 1Left Hand 1Right Arm 1Right Hand 1Shoulders Space SkinShoulder ShieldBack Weapon PackTorso and Belt CockpitLeft Leg 1Right Leg 1Boots Zero-G StabilizerComm SystemStandard Package Features: Weapon Pack, Improved Deep Space Thrusters, Magnetic CoatingBonuses: -2 attack, darkvision 100 ft, +2 Navigate & SpotWeapons: Vulcan Weapon -2 ranged 3d8 ball, 20, 60 ft, S/A, 2000 rds, orBeam Spray Gun -2 attack, 10d10, energy, 20x4, 120 ft, S, 10 internal, handheld, orBeam Saber +8 melee, 7d10, fire, 19-20x3, 2 min operationSlam +8 melee 2d8+12 blud, 20, 15 ft reach Weapon PackThis backpack like item houses the power system that power the RMS-179 GM II's energy weapons and where it stores the weapons it carries, which is usually one beam saber and a beam weapon. Although it can also carry a bazooka, projectile rifles and other weapons, and even carry the shield. The beam weapon can be recharged after 1 minute (10 rounds). The beam saber can be recharged in 1 minute (10 rounds). The weapon pack can carry the two beam sabers, the shield and two long weapons, such as a beam rifle and a projectile rifle, or the hyper bazooka, or some other combination.Equipment Slots: 2, must be back, torso or belt.Activation: NoneRange Increment: TouchTarget: YouDuration: NoneSaving Throw: nonePurchase DC: 27Restriction: Mil (+3) Magnetic CoatingThe joints and motors have a special magnetic coating that gives it greater range of movement and reaction times.

This makes the shield heat resistant. All fire damage taken from atmospheric entry is halved. If the mech equipped with this shield is struck while the shield is being used from a non-sneak attack or from a flanking opponent, the mech has fire resistance 15.Equipment Slots: 1, hand or armActivation: NoneRange Increment: TouchTarget: YouDuration: PersistentSaving Throw: NonePurchase DC: 6 + one-quarter the mech's base purchase DCRestriction: Mil (+3) Vulcan WeaponThis weapon system is a rapid fire ballistic weapon used for anti infantry and can be used to attempt to shoot missiles, but usually a back up weapon. If used to shoot missiles, it has a 20% chance to shoot down missiles that attack the equipped mech, and uses 10 rounds of ammunition. Each time the system is used to shoot down missiles, it incurs a cumulative -1 to ranged attack rolls due to the head turning to bring the weapon to bear. As a weapon, it deals 3d8 points of ballistic damage.Equipment Slots: 1Activation: Attack or attack of opportunityRange Increment: 70 ftTarget: Single target within 700 ft, or missile, or autofireDuration: InstantaneousSaving Throw: nonePurchase DC: 25Restriction: Mil (+3) Improved Deep Space Thrusters (PL7)These are improved versions of the deep space thrusters for mechs over the previous age, granting greater speed and endurance allowing a mech to keep pace with ships better than previous models. These thrusters give a mech a space tactical speed of 2500  ft (5 squares) and can travel the length of a solar system twice before needing refueling. They are not designed for atmospheric flight.Equipment Slots: 2, must be torso, back or legs.Activation: Free actionRange Increment: PersonalTarget: You.Duration: PersistentSaving Throw: NonePurchase DC: 14 + one-quarter PDC of the mech.Restriction: None Beam RifleThe beam rifle is an experimental energy weapon, with power similar to those mounted on starships, able to cripple mechs in a single blow. However, due to the energy drain, the beam rifle has a limited number of shots before it needs to be recharged. Deals 10d10 points of energy damage, with a critical x4 damage, can only fire 10 times before requiring a recharge. The beam rifle is a two handed rifle, but can be fired with only one hand but suffers -2 to attack rolls.Equipment Slots: 2, hand or arm.Activation: AttackRange Increment: 120 ft, 2500 ft spaceTarget: Single target within 1200 ftDuration: InstantaneousSaving Throw: nonePurchase DC: 45Restriction: Mil (+4) Beam SaberThe beam saber is an experimental plasma based melee weapon that is able to cut through nearly any material. However it has a short operating time before requiring a recharge. Large mech 3d10, Huge 5d10, Gargantuan 7d10, Colossal 9d10, fire damage, ignoring 15 points of hardness/DR, critical threat range 19-20, x3, can not add strength modifier to damage. Operational for 2 minutes (20 rounds) before requiring a recharge.Equipment Slots: 1, hand or armActivation: AttackRange Increment: meleeTarget: SingleDuration: InstantaneousSaving Throw: nonePurchase DC: 44Restriction: Mil (+4) Optional WeaponsThe RMS-179 GM II has a number of optional weapons that it can be equipped with, including common mech weapons, mostly the same equipment as the original GM. Hyper BazookaThis is a heavy missile weapon with a small magazine of 3 380mm rockets. Deals 15d8 points of fire damage to a 30 foot radius burst, and ignores 20 points of hardness/DR on the initial target hit. The bazooka itself only holds three rounds, and each equipment slot dedicated to ammunition holds 3 rockets. Takes a standard action to load the bazooka, which provokes an attack of opportunity. While fairly accurate, it isn't very effective against fast moving targets, suffering -2 to strike anything moving more than 40 ft / round on ground, or 2000 ft in space. It can be fired one handed, but suffers a further -2 to attack.Equipment Slots: 1 hand heldActivation: AttackRange Increment: 150 ftArea: 30 ft radius burstTarget: Single target within 1500 ftDuration: InstantaneousSaving Throw: Reflex DC 18 for half damage in blast radius, not counting target struck.Purchase DC: 22 for launcher, 16 for 3 pack of rocketsRestriction: Mil (+3) Combat ShieldThe combat shield is a small shield that mounts to one of the arms, but is reinforced and has two projections sticking out of the bottom that allow it to add to the mech's unarmed strike (as this projections stick out just past the hand, but don't interfere with normal operation of the hand). But when the mech makes an unarmed strike with the shield equipped arm, the mech loses the shield bonus to defense for the rest of that round. Grants +4 shield bonus to Defense. When making an unarmed strike with the shield equipped arm, adds +3d6 Piercing damage to the unarmed strike.Equipment Slots: 1, armActivation: PersistentRange Increment: MeleeTarget: You/single targetDuration: InstantaneousSaving Throw: nonePurchase DC: 6+ one-quarter mech base purchase DC.Restriction: Res (+2) Rail CannonThe rail cannon is a heavy long ranged projectile weapon that can be used as a sniper or anti fortification weapon. It is not suited for fast moving targets, and the mech must be standing still to fire. The rail cannon deals 7d12 points of ballistic damage, ignoring 20 points of hardness, critical x4 on a natural 20, able to fire out to 15 range increments. The weapon carries 5 rounds and each equipment slot dedicated to ammunition holds 10 rounds.Equipment Slots: 2Activation: attackRange Increment: 200 ftTarget: single target out to 3000 ftDuration: InstantaneousSaving Throw: nonePurchase DC: 29, 10 rds PDC 20Restriction: Mil (+3) Beam Sniper RifleThis is a modified beam rifle first introduce on the RX-78-2, designed for long range strikes. Although it has lower over all damage, it has an improved chance of striking a critical hit. Deals 8d10 points of energy damage, with a critical 18-20 x4 damage, can only fire 10 times before requiring a recharge. Able to fire out to 15 range increments. The beam rifle is a two handed rifle.Equipment Slots: 2, hand or arm.Activation: AttackRange Increment: 200 ft, 4000 ft spaceTarget: Single target within 3000 ftDuration: InstantaneousSaving Throw: nonePurchase DC: 46Restriction: Mil (+4) S-00109 ShieldThis small shield, while similar to those found on the GM Ground Type and the Combat Shield, is constructed of Luna Titanium alloy, increasing its durability. It mounts to one of the arms, but is reinforced and has two projections sticking out of the bottom that allow it to add to the mech's unarmed strike (as this projections stick out just past the hand, but don't interfere with normal operation of the hand). But when the mech makes an unarmed strike with the shield equipped arm, the mech loses the shield bonus to defense for the rest of that round. Grants +4 shield bonus to Defense, and if the attack hits, it grants hardness/DR 20 or 40 vs kinetic attacks (ballistic, slashing, piercing, bludgeoning, concussion) against attacks that manage to strike on the same side as the shield. When making an unarmed strike with the shield equipped arm, adds +3d6 Piercing damage to the unarmed strike. This shield is usually given to elite units and not regular combat units.Equipment Slots: 1, armActivation: PersistentRange Increment: MeleeTarget: You/single targetDuration: InstantaneousSaving Throw: nonePurchase DC: 12+ one-quarter mech base purchase DC.Restriction: Mil (+3)</blockquote>
