The old Tactical Battle Pod has been replaced with the smaller, but deadlier, TBP-Z1 (nicknamed �“Tid-Bitz�”). The mecha�’s formidable weapons, speed and balance emulate its giant predecessor. However there are numerous differences in style and design. The top mounted particle beam guns are long and slender, a trademark of earth design. Its small rear lasers have been replaced with larger, more powerful lasers and the auto cannons replaced with a Gladiator style auto cannon drum. The battle pod�’s familiar egg-shaped main body is also gone, in favor of a squat, rectangular shaped form.
The most dramatic changes are the addition of arms and its drastically reduced size. Arms give this infantry unit the advantage of hand to hand combat, grappling, holding and carrying. This size is comparatively minuscule 23ft (7m). the pilot is safely nestled in the armored midsection of the main body.

Weapon Systems:
1. Duel-Mounted Particle Beam Cannons(2): are mounted on the top of the TBP-Z1. Each cannon can move independently of the other or in one synchronized movement. This means the cannons can be fired independently of each other at different targets or simultaneously at the same target. Both P-Beam cannons can only shoot forward, with a movement arc of 80 degrees up and down.

Mega-Damage: Single Blast 4D10 M.D., Double simultaneous Blast 8D10 (counts as one attack).
Rate of Fire: Equal to the pilot�’s combined number of attacks
Payload: Effectively Unlimited
2. Top-Mounted Lasers(2): are located in the rear near the shoulders. They can be positioned up and down in an 80 degree arc.
Primary Purpose: Defense
Secondary Purpose:
Weight: N/A

Mega-Damage: 3D6 M.D. per individual blast, or 6D6 per simultaneous volley (both lasers fire in one attack)
Rate of Fire: Equal to the pilot�’s combined number of attacks
Payload: Effectively Unlimited
3. 32mm Auto Cannon(2): are located in the lower part of the body, the drum configuration allows an 180 degree rotation, enabling the weapon to fire upwards, down at its feet, and under its legs in the rear. Both fire simultaneously.
