Half-Life 2 concept art: Strider, part 12 out of 12

The Strider is a large three-legged arthropod-like Combine Synth that stands approximately 15 meters tall or 50 feet. They serve as the Combine's main heavy ground assault unit. Striders are capable of pursuing hostiles in both confined streets and open plazas, even crouching down to fire at enemies who seek cover under overhangs or in bombed-out buildings. The Strider's body is covered in a smooth brown carapace or exoskeleton. On the "head" of the Strider is a rapid-fire pulse cannon, with a heavier warp cannon suspended below. The three long legs of the Strider are tipped with sharp spikes and a rosette of finer, hair-like spines.
