(Lore) Are any of the CA models supposed to be Ur?

by EccentricOwl » November 9th, 2014, 9:57 pm

I was looking through and I was curious if the Ur have ever been depicted in model or illustration form. They remind me a bit of Warmachine's Morgoth, in that they are mysterious, far away, and rarely depicted.

From what I understood (not big and knowledgable on CA lore myself) the Ur were 'swallowed' by the EI, and now life on as the EI constructs like the Anathematic, Skiavaros and probably the Unidrons as well. They are grown bodies, with the EI's consiousness downloaded into them.

According to the lore no, all of the UR have been subsumed into the EI.

Even the EI units aren't UR, they were designed by an unknown alien species and adapted for use by the EI.

Some of the El units, like the Medchanoid and the drones, are things that the Ur designed.

From the product page for the Ikadron:
For the Ur Civilization, the good soldier isn’t made or born, it is grown.

Product of the most advanced techno-organic engineering, the Ikadron Batroids are carbon-silicon hybrids cultivated in accelerated growth farms over a pseudo-intelligent monitored substrate. The techno-neuronal hardware structure and behavior models of the Ikadron have been designed in the image and likeness of the Ruaria, companion animals of the Ur since times immemorial and favorite pet of any warrior, hunter or adventurer. The Ruaria are ferocious, brave and loyal until death, making them the ideal model and reference for creating an excellent autonomous slave/operative. So, the Ikadron was the perfect tool for any Ur to feel comfortable and safe working with it, either configured for autonomous remote mode or under direct control via quantronic-neuronal link.

Designed in the ages before the creation of the EI itself, the Ikadron were a mass production tool to perform dangerous activities in hostile environments; a wide definition including any kind of tasks, from exploration to construction, prospecting or even combat. With minimum modifications in the cultivation phase, an Ikadron could change from a qualified worker to a professional soldier, expert in front line operations or in logistics. In this way, the Ikadron Batroids were the main force of the expansionist waves of the EI in its first campaigns of conquest, when the Ur presence in combat was more frequent.


Ur built and Ur designed, as they should be. :lol: The Medchanoid description had something similar on it:
To resolve these problems, the Ur Rationalists developed the Med-Tech line, bio-artificial intelligent units, adapted to the medical necessities and the technical maintenance of the Combined Army.


True, some of the famous models like the Skaivoros are second-hand bodies that the El found, and then probably modified a bit, but the Ur did a lot of work, too. :P
