Wild Wurger

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Wild Wurger is a fictional robot in the Super Robot Wars series. It has appeared as a playable unit in [Super Robot Wars Alpha 2]], Super Robot Wars Alpha 3 and Super Robot Taisen: Original Generation 2.

[edit] Appearance

The Wild Wurger is a lean humanoid machine covered in mostly purple armor with certain areas of the body being colored gray and white. The cockpit hatch is designated by being colored red.

[edit] Technical And Historical

The Wild Wurger was a new Personal Trooper developed by Mao Industries as a high-speed, close combat unit intended for engaging in melee- to mid-range combat. This machine is like a cousin to the Alt Eisen in many ways, since they both seem to be similar in the way they are meant to be utilized in combat, as well as the way their weapon layout is designated. This machine would be called the PTX-015 (alternatively, the PTX-015-R) Wild Wurger ("Wurger" is German for Shrike, a bird of prey).

The Wild Wurger utilizes a ball cartridge for its weapons that use solid rounds and is equipped with a Telsa Drive to maintain flight. Much of the armor on the Wild Wurger is known as "Jacket Armor", armor that can be "purged" (ejected) in order to activate the High Mobility Mode. In this mode, a pair of strong cutting wings on the backpack can be released to unleash the Wild Wurger's best maneuver, the Victim Beak.

In Alpha 2, while Arado Balanga is engaging in combat with his former Titans unit and Neo Zeon (two factions from the famed Gundam saga), Rätsel Feinschmecker and Viletta Vadim appear with the new Wild Wurger unit and give it to him for his use. In Original Generation 2, while Arado is engaging in combat with his former unit of the Neo Divine Crusaders, his machine is badly damaged. His teammates arrive with the Wild Wurger, however, and he transfers to this new machine. Arado would use the Wurger for the rest of the war. When close friend and comrade Seolla Schweizer would defect from the Titans (or Neo Divine Crusaders in Original Generation 2), she would join Arado in her unit, the Wild Falken, the partner unit of the Wild Wurger. Together, they can perform the Twin Bird Strike attack, a synchronized battle formation.

Mao Industries had additionally created a second Wild Wurger unit, the PTX-015-L Wild Wurger L. This unit is colored red rather than purple. It is essentially the same unit, with an added Stun Shock status weapon that can completely immobilize targets.

[edit] Specifications

Height: 20.6 meters

Weight: 56.9 tons

Weapon Systems:

• 3-Barrel Gatling Cannon
  Wild Wurger fires the three-barrel gattling gun cannons on the left arm.

• M90 Assault Machinegun/Rifle (in the English localization)
  This assault rifle is made for quick hit and run strikes. It has a grenade lancher on the bottom of it.

• Cold Metal Sword ("Steel Sword" in the English localization)
  This is a metal blade stored in the left arm and is to be used by the right hand. It can cut through metal with ease.

• Stag Beetle Crusher ("Beetle Crusher" in the English localization)
  This two-prong crushing weapon that mimics a stag beetle's crusher is mounted on the right arm. It can be used as a smacking weapon, and of course, as a crushing tool.

• Victim Beak ("Raptor Wings" in the English localization)
  The Wild Wurger can purge all of its jacket armor and expand its wings to enter its high mobility mode. It can then fly back and forth by the enemy using the wings to deal cutting attacks. The culmination of high speed attacks can deal massive amounts of damage.

• Twin Bird Strike
  Arado and Seolla's signature combination attack. The Wild Wurger purges its jacket armor and expands its wings, while the Wild Falken activate its TBS Mode. Both units mobilize at high speeds, confusing the enemy. The Falken begins to fire its Oxtongue Rifle B attack from a higher altitude. The Wurger moves in, and grabs the enemy with its Stag Beetle Crusher. Lifting the enemy up, the Falken fires more rounds from its Oxtongue Rifle B, and ends with a single round of the Oxtongue Rifle E attack. The enemy is released from the crusher, but is hit back by the attack from the Wurger. With one final strike, both units deal the cutting attack with their respective wings, finishing the enemy.
