The Sardes MK III DG ( サルデス MK III DG Sarudesu MK III DG), also referred to as Monkey Death MK III DG or Venomian Assault Mech, is a large combat mech used by Oikonny's army. It only appears in the first Mission of Star Fox Assault.
Characteristics[]
The Sardes MK III DG is very much similar to the Sardes MK III DB, but it has a few differences of its own. It is light beige in color, and the top half has all the weapons. Like the Sardes MK III DB, it is propelled by treads, and it comes equipped with two gatling cannons on both arms and twin missile launchers on the shoulders (though the latter was never used). It is related to the Sardes MK III DB, Sardes MK III S, and possibly Sardos.
History[]
The Sardes MK III DG was manufactured and stationed on the base of Andrew Oikonny at the time of the Battle of Fortuna. The mechs were little more than a distraction for the new and improved Arwings of the Star Fox team. Furthermore, the events of the Aparoid Invasion saw the immediate pause of the Cornerian and Venomian conflict.

Trivia[]
- The Sardes MK III DG slightly resembles Granga's Mech in physical appearance and the fact they are walking combat robots. It also bears some resemblance to the Shogun Warrior and Shogun Trooper, of which it and its related models (MK III DB and MK III S) are descendants of.
