The Grond is a ultra-heavy transport/siege gunship to run and support assaults on heavily fortified ground installations. It is capable of operating in high g environments up to 5g. Transport capabilities will obviously be reduced in such environments.

For landing and transport operations its turrets provide good coverage against hostile drones and ground forces. HVs that are designed for transport should have a Docking Pad at the very top to dock. I added some screenshots of a docked tank, in case you are wondering.

As far as fighting is concerned, the bow is heavily armored. Overall armor is solid, but you definately want your opponent in front of you. Mobility is rather low, it can achieve max speed even when carrying tanks, but dont expect to be able to do spinning moves.

The Grond is sized to fit inside the hangar of my Kronos CV, a 13x7 sized Hangar Door is highly recommended.

Note this SV is extremely expensive in terms of CPU and is absolutely intended for endgame situations where you just don't really care about resource costs anymore.

"Great engines crawled across the field; and in the midst was a huge ram, great as a forest-tree a hundred feet in length, swinging on mighty chains. Long had it been forging in the dark smithies of Mordor, and its hideous head, founded of black steel, was shaped in the likeness of a ravening wolf; on it spells of ruin lay. Grond they named it, in memory of the Hammer of the Underworld of old. Great beasts drew it, orcs surrounded it, and behind walked mountain-trolls to wield it." —The Return of the King

LCDs are modifications from sulusdacors LCD Library, so a big thanks to him for his amazing work! (Anyone got a LCD for a wolf head? I need it because ... reasons)
