Elder's Mecha 'Lobster'

Made for the group contest "Deep Sea Mechas".
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

This terrible invading mechas arrived in Earth billions of years before the dinosaurs. The Elder Things [link] used this robot walkers to battle the invader Mi-Go and other alien creatures. After the collapse of the Elders outpost in Earth, thousands of this robots became buried in deep ocean chasms.

With the recent invasion of Elders, some derelict fighters of this race fallen into Earth oceans, and the pilots recognized the ancient mechas burried but still functional under the sea.

The mecha, nicknamed "Lobster" by the humans, is very ancient in terms of Elder technology, but still much advanced for humans. It moves mostly by walking in the underwater soil, and it also can "swim", using the little legs as oars, or the big ones as frog legs.

The main weapon of the Lobster are their claws, made of an alloy of organic stem-cells, carbon and titanium. It can cut and crush almost any material made by men, and are quite agile.

The eerie "head"/cockpit of the Lobster also can generate soundwaves that are lethal underwater, the same way the Pistol Shrimps do [link] . Out of water, the "sound-cannon" cannot generate the same effect, but can be used as physiologic warfare, creating a loud and eerie sound that drive humans to madness or deafness.
