Shogun Executioner



"Commander. This is our newest weapon: the Shogun Executioner. We will use it to spread fear to our enemies."
 * Tatsu, introducing the Executioner

Recent recon videos have gathered information about another of the Empire of the Rising Sun's machinations: the Epic-class Shogun Executioner appears to be a tripod, tri-bodied titanic robot, driven by a single AI dedicated to pure destruction only and each torso part armed with energy katanas that absorbs Soviet Tesla fire, enhancing their destructive capabilities. Considering that ability, it's possible it was specifically designed to be used against the Soviets. Its heavy armor can allow it to shrug off most attacks, while its Wave-Force katanas can destroy almost anything in one hit. To add to its power, it has a special attack where it drives all three of its katanas into the ground fires out an electric charge that destroys everything around it.

There are, indeed, disadvantages to even such a destructive machine: the Executioner is appallingly slow, ill-maneveurable and vulnerable to aerial and long-range threats, including superweapons.

Only one such warmachine is said to exist - to the Empire, one's destruction is a devastating defeat.

History
The Executioner was first deployed in combat to eliminate Krukov in Operation "Behold the Mighty Saint of Swords", but later on the Premier and the Kremlin in Operation "Crumble Kremlin Crumble". Soviet infighting is another reason why this Epic Unit executed the fall of the Soviet Union.

The Shogun Executioner demonstrated just how powerful it is as it smashed through many tank battalions and absorbed Tesla energy and rammed into aircraft, since this is the only way one can destroy them. Suki also admitted that even Apocalypse Tanks were no match for it and V4 Rocket Launchers in groups were a major threat to it.

The Shogun Executioner is reported to be presumably and completely absent in the Allied and Soviet perspectives and the Allies were lucky not to get into a fight with one.

Behind the scenes
The Exectuioner matches the Brotherhood's Redeemer in terms of Epic-class firepower and durability, the only difference is the Executioner is tall enough to ram into aerial units. It also shares the Scrin Annihilator Tripods' chassis. The Executioner can also regenerate while under Tesla fire, which essentially turned the Soviets' greatest weapon against themselves.
