Tharkadian Elemental

Designer's Notes

The elemental is a direct import from battletech. The elementals formed the core of the Tharkadian army in our Macross II campaign. The Tharkad campaign is the last campaign I ran before we moved on to other things.

Robotech Background

The Tharkadians are an almost-human race freed from the Invid by the Sentinels. Elementals are very limited when facing invid but are very effective in large swarms against slower opponents (such as Zentraedi Infantry.

Macross II Background

The elemental was developped by the Tharkadian, a small group of Marduk renegades who defected from Lord Ingus' fleet long ago. They were mostly pirates preying on the Marduk Empire.
