Alt Eisen Riese

Alt Eisen Riese is a fictional giant robot from the Japanese video game series Super Robot Wars. It has appeared in Super Robot Wars Impact and Original Generation 2.

Appearance

The Alt Eisen Riese has the same general appearance as its predecessor, Alt Eisen had. However, it has black highlights all over its body and is even more top-heavy due to the size of its shoulder armor and backpack.

Technical and historical

For information on the original machine, see the Alt Eisen page.

After it was heavily damaged from a sortie against Axel Almer of the Shadow Mirror, Kyosuke Nanbu requested upgrades for his machine. Using spare parts from Excellen's Weiss Ritter, various additions for the Alt Eisen were planned in order to fix its imbalance issues, so that Kyosuke would be able to push it beyond its limits: more armor plating was added for defensive purposes, the ammunition capacity for the Claymore launchers was increased, two more machine cannons were added to the left arm, the heat horn was upgraded to a plasma horn, and the Revolving Stake would be replaced with the Revolving Bunker, and older and more powerful version of the stake deemed too impractical to use in the original design. This solved the firepower problems the Alt was having. To further fix the imbalancing issues, a Tesla Drive was installed. Though a Tesla Drive usually allows a unit to fly, in this case, it instead allows low-level flight/hovering, as well as better movement to easy up the unit in its movement for easier attacking methods. Without the Tesla Drive, the Alteisen Reise would be incapable of even the slightest bodily movement. A small pair of "wings" were added on the shoulders to increase its overall mobility and speed. The new unit would be designated as the PTX-003C-SP1 "Alt Eisen Riese".

The Alt Eisen Riese would continue to serve as Kyosuke's main unit. Along with Excellen's "upgraded" unit, the Rein Weiss Ritter, they would act as a powerful team capable of doing the new "Rampage Ghost" combination attack.

Specifications

Height: 23.8 meters

Weight: 99.7 tons

Weapon Systems:
*Penta Chaingun
This weapon is similar to the Triple Machine Cannon on the Alt Eisen, except that its five barrels are linked together in Gatling gun fashion.

• Plasma/Heat Horn
  A plasma-charged blade mounted on the Riese's forehead.

• Revolving Bunker
  Although its mounting is substantially different from the Revolving Stake's, its principle is the same. In the Original Generation OVA, Kyousuke could be seen reloading it with a PT-scale speedloader.

• Avalanche/Heavy Claymore
  The Avalanche Claymore is almost exactly like its predecessor, the Square Claymore. Both weapons saturate their victims with a hail of solid titanium ball bearings.

• Aerial Claymore
  The Aerial Claymore is not a weapon in itself, but a series of precision-timed attacks. The Aerial Claymore is, in principle, similar to the Trump Card attack used by the original Alteisen.

• Rampage Ghost
  Kyousuke and Excellent's signature attack. They deliver a combination of attacks in a coordinated strategy to deliver massive amounts of damage to the target.
