Ameise's Kinetic Energy[]
Ameise have a weight of over 10 tons
| “ | Their radar screens suddenly filled with red blips indicating hostile units. An army of mechanical demons marched toward them, threatening to paint over the ruins’ gray with their color. The Legion marched in an orderly line, leaving gaps of fifty to one hundred meters between one another. The lightest units, the Scout-type Ameise, moved with a silence that betrayed their weight of over ten tons, the overlapping noise of their movement, like bones rubbing against one another, coalescing into what sounded like the rustling of leaves. | „ |

Multi-leg mobile weapons move faster than tread tanks, in other words basically everything in this series is faster than tanks
| “ | “Well put, Your Majesty … Now then, would you be so kind as to share with us the Legion´s tactical algorithm? After all, it was your country that developed the Mariana Model, upon which the Legion´s artificial intelligence was based.”
The prince responded with a smile of his own. “Of course I don´t mind, Lieutenant General … Assuming you would be willing to disclose information regarding the Legion units´ physical makeup. Wasn´t your alliance the first to adopt the technology that allows for multilegged mobile weapons to move faster than tank-tread models?” |

The fastest tread model can move at 50 – 56 mph according to this this. I will use 50mph which is 22m/s
Ek=0.5*M*V^2
Use this kinetic energy calculator and the result is 2195390 J or 2195.39 KJ
Lowe's Kinetic Energy[]
Lowe's weigh 50 tons
| “ | Carrying a 57 mm anti-tank multiple-rocket launcher on its back, with light reflecting menacingly off the high-frequency blades protruding from its front legs, the Dragoon-type Grauwolf had the ferocious appearance of a six-legged shark.
With their fifty-ton tank frames carried on eight jointed legs, the Tank-type Löwe advanced proudly, their oppressive 120 mm smoothbore turrets gazing ahead. |

Same method as before for the speed, as Lowe's are faster than tread tanks too.
Ek=0.5*M*V^2
Use this kinetic energy calculator and the result is 10976900 J or 0.0026 Tons Of TNT
Dinosauria's Kinetic Energy[]
Dinosauria weigh 100 tons
| “ | The Löwe weighed fifty tons, and the Dinosauria weighed at least a hundred tons—their barrels alone were over the permissible weight. In contrast, the Skorpion had a simple form. | „ |
| ~ Volume 5, Chapter 3 |
Use this kinetic energy calculator and the result is 21953900 J or 0.005 Tons of tnt
Morpho's Railgun[]
The Morpho is a railgun type that fires a shell that weighs several tons at 8000m/s
| “ | The result granted the projectiles immense destructive power—the warhead’s weight multiplied by its velocity. Impact may dampen its power slightly, but it was still a round traveling at eight thousand meters per second—its weight would easily reach several tons. Even a fortified base would crumble like a sandcastle when pitted against that much force, to say nothing of a prefabricated advance base. | „ |

Ek=0.5*M*V^2
M=3 tons or 2721.55kg V=8000m/s
Use this kinetic energy calculator and the result is 87089600000 J or 20.81 Tons Of TNT
Morpho's Kinetic Energy[]
The Morpho has a mass of 1,400 tons and a speed of 200km/h
Use this kinetic energy calculator and the result is 1959970000 J or 0.468 tons of tnt
Morpho's Potential Energy[]
The Morpho has a mass of 1,400 tons and a height of 11.4m
Ep = M*g*h
Use this calculator and the result is 1535403655J or 0.366 tons of tnt
Reginleif's Kinetic Energy[]
Reginleif have a weight of over 10 tons
| “ | “But you’re doing the same thing! What is the likelihood of the Nordlicht squadron’s safe return from this operation…?!”
When it came to low-altitude flight meant to avoid radar detection and antiaircraft fire, a transport helicopter would be more reliable, if slower and capable of carrying less weight. And while the Reginleif was relatively light, it still weighed over ten tons. |

Reginleif move at 100km/h
| “ | As Fido struggled to keep up with the rest of the group on the winding road, they could hear explosions coming from the riverbed behind them. They fired anti-armor explosive shells into the air, their fuses going off as they crashed down onto the Löwe, specifically the weak points on their upper armor. They heard roars echoing a second and third time, from different directions, but the Juggernauts—traveling at a cruising speed of over one hundred kilometers per hour even on the unsteady mountain road—left those explosions behind them before long. | „ |
