Once upon a time in a Galaxy far far away Boreas pilots all
cried. A thousand souls all crying out at the same time. “Why oh Gods of our
Mecha Universe do all of our engine choices suck Snavrum butt?”
The Elder Gods (known as the Dev’ Elopurrs) heard the cry
and bestowed a blessing unto the hapless Boreas pilots in the form of a mighty
engine. This engine is the Frost Reactor.
Okay, that was all a little over the top, but it does
signify exactly how important and awesome the Frost Reactor is to the Boreas
mecha. Without it, you just don’t end up utilizing this phenomenal machine of
freezing destruction to its full potential.
The Frost Reactor gives you excellent speed for a big mech
(+nine), auto repair of three, laser damage of eight percent, and freeze damage
of ten percent. And best yet, you get all these goodies with no negatives.
The mechanics of the Frost Reactor work by siphoning off
entropy from micro degrees Kelvin which the Boreas produces from its Cold
Fusion core. In essence, the mech feeds the engine unlimited energy which in
turn provides the mech power in an infinite power loop. Perfection personified.
So now comes the sad part of this tale. They aren’t
available for purchase. Anywhere. The only place you can obtain them is through
CW raids or the vortex. While this makes them highly prized, it also drives the
bulk of the Mecha Galaxy partially insane. This beautiful shiny engine of
magnificence, perfect for your Boreas fleet, but only available through rolling
the dice of chance. In sight, yet just out of reach.
The Gods are cruel in their humor. But to those who have
been lucky enough to get one of these prized beauties, crush your enemies in a
hail of sleet and ice.
