Yeah, the Banshee or Malaika could work for a Tetrajet. :thumbsup:
Are minis of those available? If so, go for it!
Herb would these Seekers still be 50 tons?
These look like they'd be lighter than the classic Seeker.

I'd use the Seeker stats for all of them, my philosophy being that the majority of these incarnations are cosmetic variations of the same machines. They might get different minis picked out (RiD and Animated incarnations would probably use the Stingray for fighter mode, for instance, while the Prime incarnation might be done using a modified Rapier, Turk, or Sulla mini.)
Are there variants for Seekers like Bitstream? The F-15s with the F-14's canopy. https://tfwiki.net/wiki/File:TL_Bitstream-toy.jpg I was wondering about a Beagle Active Probe for the "RIO" position.
Yes, Bitstream (Bit Seeker) has its own variant. And it uses a BAP.
I really can't remember. Is the Centurion Weapon System effective against AutoMechs?
I'd say no. The CWS works a lot like how, in that one Star Trek movie and that one TNG episode, the Federation had prefix codes that could turn off a fellow starship's shields when transmitted. In the SLDF era, that was commonplace as a means to keep SLDF/TH units in SLDF/TH hands, but post-League, it stopped being as reliable, which is why the rules for the CWS were written to reflect that. Think of it as basically a hacking program that's become less effective simply due to software and BIOS updates over time. The Syberian AI system was specifically noted to be really hacking-resistant, and so shouldn't recognize the CWS (although, in RPG terms, one
might consider a bonus to hacking efforts if the hacker has a CWS handy--just remember that hacking a Syberian AI effectively "kills" the AI entirely and turns the machine into a remote-controlled drone).
There is the Thorizer and a few other vehicles with converting motive systems in XTRO:Boondoggles. I'm not sure how many of the later ones would fit but the Thorizer should be good.
Sure, but remember the Thorizer was a failure. We'd just be presupposing it didn't and setting up a world where such things flourished. That world was probably not Syberia, though, or if it was, that was when there were still humans there.
They could be different weights though or have different weapons. Right now there's a 50 and 100 ton tracked AutoMechs. There could be more. could be a

https://tfwiki.net/wiki/Half-Track_(G1) Partisan AA Tank
https://tfwiki.net/wiki/Landquake_(Timelines) different mech Partisan AA Tank
https://tfwiki.net/wiki/Killbison different mech Partisan AA or maybe a behemoth II?
https://tfwiki.net/wiki/Rescue_Force_1 different mech Partisan engineering equipment replaces guns.
Of course more Tracked AutoMechs are possible. I just have a LOT of models in my TRO already.
