bEXM-29 Gardonova

The bEXM-29 Gardonova is a heavy-duty combat unit deployed by the Byron Army within the 30 Minutes Missions setting. Designed for frontline deployment, it emphasizes durability and raw power, standing out with its bulky frame and oversized arms equipped with extendable claws. These claws are capable of shifting length through mechanical adjustments, giving the machine flexibility in close-quarters combat and allowing it to handle both offensive strikes and heavy lifting tasks on the battlefield.

Its armor is reinforced around the chest and waist, offering improved protection while still allowing a wide range of movement, particularly in the legs. The Gardonova carries a submachine gun as its standard weapon, giving it reliable ranged capability to complement its crushing melee strength.

Another defining feature of the Gardonova is its modular structure. The frame is built with numerous hardpoints across its body, including the torso, arms, legs, and backpack, enabling the attachment of additional equipment or alternate weapon systems. This makes it highly adaptable, whether outfitted for direct assault, defensive roles, or specialized missions. The design philosophy behind the Gardonova reflects the Byron Army’s focus on heavy, versatile machines that can dominate in both close-range and ranged combat while serving as a strong base for further battlefield customization.
