Technical and Historical Notes

When the Gilgamesh Confederation unveils the revolutionary ATM-09-ST Scopedog in Astragius Year 7198, the Balarant Union takes note and begins developing its own mid-class armored trooper. Two years later, the Balarant introduce their own model, the B-ATM-01 Blocker. However, the Blocker proves to be inferior to the AT types fielded by the Gilgamesh. Although several variants are produced, the Blocker is eventually replaced by the B-ATM-03 Fatty as the Balarant's main mass production model.
