Although many critics wouldn't consider it a true mech as it has treads instead of legs as a 'traditional' mech would have, the added speed and stability and ability to run over opponents does quiet some critics. The VH1 is basically a tank with a humanoid torso mounted on top, armed with a silver plated weapon and a heavy machinegun for infantry support. The shoulders do support a modular mount system to allow the addition of other weapons or ammo for the M-9 Barrage chaingun.The VH1 is considered old by today's standards and is available for sale to those who can afford it, so many law enforcement and amateur vampire hunters and some mercenary groups are buying them up. Many mercenary groups change the weapon loads to suit their needs.Size: Large MechBonus Hit Points: 100Superstructure: AlumisteelHardness: 10Armour: DuralloyBonus to Defense: +8Armour Penalty: -8Reach: 10 ftStrength Bonus: +8Dexterity Penalty: 0Speed: 30 ft BasePurchase DC: 38Helmet: Class II Sensor SystemTorso: CockpitBack: CockpitShoulders: Modular MountLeft Arm: PS-15 Panther ClawsRight Arm: M-9 Barrage ChaingunTreads: Comm SystemStandard Package Features: Comm SystemBonuses: +2 Navigate and Spot, +4 against being tripped and bull rushedWeapons: M-9 Barrage Chaingun 5d6 ball, 20, 60 ft, S/A, Linked (4 belts of 50 rds), Huge, 100 lbsPS-15 Panther Claws  2d6 slash, 19-20, mediumSlam 1d8 bludgeonRules for the tank treads can be found on page 71 of D20 Future Tech book.Vampire Hunter mk2The Vampire Hunter mk2 is the latest advancement in mech technology available to the Knights and well off security and law enforcement firms. Greatly enhanced over the mk1 which was basically just an armoured shell with a heavy gun attached to one arm and a large blade on the other, the VH2 comes standard with a heavy machinegun, silver plated melee weapons, stake launcher and it's slam attacks are enhanced with holy symbols mounted to the striking surfaces like brass knuckles for making strikes bringing down the 'fist of holy righteousness'. Also comes with several spot lights with cross shaped shutters to provide light during light operations and to help ward off vampires.The Vampire Hunter mk2 is used mostly as a support unit, providing heavy firepower for squads of Knights, but in large numbers, which is rare but has happened a few times, these mechs are something to be feared by vampire forces as they mow through both supernatural and human thrall foes like a farmer with a scythe through wheat. One of the favourite features of the VH2 is the shoulder mount is modular allowing Knights to customize their weapon loads somewhat depending on mission profile. So they can add a load of missiles for heavy hitting, a water cannon for more damage against large amounts of vampire hordes, or to also act as an emergency fire fighting unit, flame thrower for burning large amounts of targets, or just extra ammo for the stake launcher or the M-9.
