📋 About This Mod
WARNING - This Mech is VERY Overpowered!
Start a new Campaign or Career to start with The Iron Giant.
- Just adds The Iron Giant to a new Campaign start.
- Replaces the fourth mech of each faction when starting a new Career.
- You have two choices when starting a new Campaign because in the first few missions you can ONLY carry a 30 ton mech:
1) You can use the Javalin that you start with to do the first few missions.
2) You can download " Max Tonnage " so that you're allowed to use 400 tons per mission (RECOMMENDED)!
-- ALSO BE AWARE!! --
You MUST adjust the tonnage on the Mech in order to use it, UNLESS you use a mod that alters the tonnage. Most of them are heatsink mods!
This mod works best with a mod that boosts the double heatsinks. I've seen a few that did so, including my " More Ammo and Double Heatsink " mod.
You'll be over Tonnage if you do NOT use a mod that puts negative (-4, -8, etc) tonnage on the heatsinks.
The Iron Giant Mech is a gameplay mod that adds a giant mech to the game, with three versions: Balanced, OverPowered, and Revamped. The Revamped version introduces BAP, ECM, and cheaper repairs. It has 115 endorsements and was last updated in June 2021.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Three distinct versions let you pick your preferred playstyle, from balanced to god-mode
- Revamped version adds tactical depth with BAP and ECM systems
- Decent community support with 115 endorsements and over 2,000 downloads
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2021 — may be outdated for current game versions
- Only one mech type, so variety is limited if you want more than one giant robot
For players who want a massive, game-changing mech to stomp around in. If you enjoy overpowered toys or tactical combat with ECM and BAP, this mod has you covered. Skip if you're looking for a lore-friendly or balanced addition to the base game.
