An Earth Mover in Gerolstein
Earth Movers are very large Chimeran vehicle that appears in Resistance: Retribution.
Description
Earth Movers were used in Gerolstein, Germany to crush and clear away land to set up vast construction yards where a portion of the Chimeran fleet was being constructed. At least three were used in this area but it is possible that there were others in other construction yards.
Major Stephen Cartwright and a British squadron managed to destroy two of these Earth Movers before they could crush the Maquis headquarters in Luxembourg. After Bravo Company was shot down, James Grayson managed to disable the third and final Earth Mover single-handedly.
Earth Movers are very slow and are powered by five very powerful propulsion systems and an engine. It appears that to turn off an Earth Mover their engines must be turn off, and then the propulsion systems. Grayson destroys the third Earth Mover just by pulling two switches which turn the propulsion systems off.
