Description

Blue Planet Tech Room Description

The Mulberry GES-11 Grimler was developed to replace the aging Phoenix V. Improvements include higher velocity, greater manuverability and a larger payload. While range is lower than that of GTVA Trebuchet, its yield is higher. Eighteen months into the war, Grimler production is still critically low in spite of constant demand.

The UEF's Trebuchet, and to be used as such. Easier to use than the Slammer, but won't yield as satisfying results.

Against the Scimitar (refer to What Binds Us), one's enough on Medium or below. Divide your ship bank's carrying capacity by 10, that's how many of these you can get. For simplicity, number of Slammers you can fit equals number of Grimlers. Using these for anti-subsystem work should only happen if you have no other option, any other day, just use Paveways.
