What's Your Favorite Machine?

Mine's the Wolf. If you want to add in specific classes, Spetznas.

First of all, scale. Wolves are one of the largest machines in Generation Zero, nearing the height of a Hunter as a tank and rivaling the size of a Harvester in assault mode. They're also essentially walking buses.

Second of all, build. They're a combination of a tank, which is my favorite vehicle, and a spider-like arachnid, where spiders are my favorite type of animal (specifically, tarantulas). Additionally, they carry two Lynxes on them and tend to call in more, which usually serve no purpose and just rove around like little idiots. Adorable. For deadly machines, adorable.

Third of all, behavior. Despite being one of the biggest machines in the game, Wolves are... kinda stupid. They tend to either stick around and start bombing one specific enemy as a tank, or walk around aimlessly and summon bursts of gunfire with their miniguns in assault mode. Not to mention their little screams when they bitch-slap you.

My biggest point: Intimidation. Wolves are, honestly, pretty terrifying. Their eyes glow an intimidating red as the prowl towards you, both as a tank and as a shuffling assault arachnid. Their voices are low, laced with static and almost unintelligable, and the fact that they only speak Russian for remote periods makes them so mysterious. They have little changes that the developers didn't need to change, but did anyways, and I love that. Their eyes switch from horizontal slits to large, vertical eyes when they go from tank to assault, and vise-versa. Sure, they're pretty easy to predict when you fight one or two alone, but they're still pretty badass - not to mention they eat Harvesters (and occasionally Tanks, although Wolves tend to get distracted by lighter enemies) for breakfast. They are meant to represent a Soviet assault on Swedish occupation, and Wolves compliment that perfectly.

So, how about you, Redditors? What's YOUR favorite machine?
