The War Machine was a powerful Clockwork and Lord Agony's secret weapon against Antonia. It is one of the final bosses of the game.
History[]
During the Second Clockwork War[]
In the days leading up to the final battle for Antonia, Lord Agony's army of clockworks continues to claim Source Wells, gaining more resources to power the fearsome secret weapon known as the War Machine. At the Ironfist Quarry Lock and Isaiah manage to interrogate a malfunctioning Silver Soldier, whose objective is to gain more Source to power it[1].
At Eastar Fields, Kenan sends Isaiah on a reconnaissance mission to gain more information about the War Machine while Lock goes to Dark Ridge.[2]
After Lock destroys Mute and his army, he is confronted by Jacob. During their conversation, Jacob claims he has conquered enough Source Wells to power up the War Machine, but will not use it should Lock and Emi convert to his side.[3]
At Tarn Highlands, tentacles of the War Machine attack a Pikeman and a Knight on duty.[3]
Final battle[]
During the Clockwork's assault outside the gates of Antonia, the War Machine marches through, rallying the Clockworks for their final stand, reminding them that they were only created for one purpose - to destroy. However, with the help of Isaiah and Heathern, Lock destroys the War Machine.[4] Infuriated, Jacob destroys all of Lock's walls and commencing a final battle.[5]
The War Machine makes a cameo appearance in the Hall of Heroes, located in the northeast room, themed around Dark Ridge.
Physical description[]
The War Machine appears as a large robot with dark red armor. It has white, evil-looking eyes and horns. Its face bares a striking resemblance to Clockwork Brutes. It has silver feet. The most distinguishable feature is that the War Machine does not have arms; instead, its whole body is wrapped around tentacles. This was formerly covered up with a black cloak.
Abilities[]
- Tentacles: The War Machine utilizes many abilities using tentacles. It can spin its tentacles to harm Lock and damage walls. It can also dig its tentacles into the ground, spawning multiple tentacles. This is useful to attack other targets or damage multiple walls.
- Charge: Like Clockwork Brutes, the War Machine can charge into walls with blinding speeds.
Personality and traits[]
Not much is described about the War Machine's personality.
It was very much focused and determined to break through Antonia. It also carries deeply for its fellow Clockworks, rallying them up by reminding them that they were built only to destroy.[4]
Relationships[]
Allies[]
