W.C.D. ARMOURED JUMP OPERATORS CASKUDA
http://img99.imageshack.us/img99/2650/sendbinaryasp2az0.jpg
Caskudas are insects similar to cockroaches, but worse. Native to Acontecimiento, they are big, reproduce at full speed, can fly, have a very resistant shell and are immune to almost any legal insecticide. Overall, an absolutely hateful, foul and disgusting nightmare. The first time that PanOceanian troops suffered an attack from the Concordat Armoured Jump Operators, they reminded them so much of those disgusting creatures that they baptized them with the same name. Caskudas are T.A.G.s equipped with trans-atmospheric flight units that can be launched from atmospheric aircraft or from planetary orbit. During re-entry to the atmosphere, the acceleration can surpass 6Gs. The adaptable geometry of Caskudas can assume complex aerodynamic models to maximise speed and reduce friction. From thirteen miles of height, their repulsors are activated to descend at supersonic speeds and then gradually diminish to the subsonic. Stabilizing fins erupt from their backs with the aim of adapting to the higher density of atmosphere. Their entry to the battlefield could be easily mistaken for a meteorite shower until they land... In fact, Caskudas do not actually land, even though they could if they wanted to. Caskudas crash and explode all over the battlefield, trying to spread confusion in the enemy ranks. So, the sequence is this: first you feel the impact of an artillery projectile, then the projectile arises from the ground and starts shooting everybody. How would you feel if the enemy bombs you with heavily armoured T.A.G.s?
5th MINUTEMEN “OHIO”

“Ready in a minute” 5th Minutemen Reg. Motto.
Heavy infantry assault regiment from the USAriadnian colonies. The 5th regiment of Armoured Rangers received the designation of Minutemen as a patriotic reference to the War of Independence militias. It also reflects their similitude with the former ballistic missiles of the USA: big, strong, and of course, explosive. The Minutemen are the best organized and experienced combat regiment of the USAriadnian military force. They are a little elite shock force characterized by their great mobility and capacity for rapid regrouping. The structure of the 5th Minutemen harks back to the former Delta Teams, with specialists in different techniques and military skills. The Minutemen have played a crucial role not only in the Separatist Wars, but also in the previous conflicts, and later with the Antipodes and the Ariadnian Commercial Conflicts.
KEISOTSU BUTAI

In Yu Jing society those of Japanese ethnic origin are considered second rate citizens. Apart from this, the Nipponese social subgroup is highly hierarchized so the members of their lower classes have a very poor standard of living. For these people the best way to move up the social scale is to serve in the StateEmpire Army. The army has regiments (Butai) consisting exclusively of Nipponese, both from the Japanese islands on the Earth, and from Kuraimori, in Shentang. The troops than make up these regiments are called Keisotsu, which in Japanese is a title of the greatest honour meaning Excellent soldier. However, the StateEmpire Army uses the Keisotsu Butai in the front line, where the action is always dangerous and the mortality rate very high. Although it hasn’t been confirmed by the Party, the figures for the average life expectancy of the Keisotsu recruits sent to a “hot” area are chillingly low. The danger, however, has its reward: the honour to serve the StateEmpire and the social improvement for those who prove their courage and commitment.
MURABID TUAREG

Murabids are the desert people, the people from the dunes. They serve in the Haqqislamite army as advanced explorers. Their units are formed by Badawis from the Taba region, the sand nomads who keep their beriberi culture. They are slim men who use recycled gear, shoulder bags, flexible boots and dune equipment. Murabids are motivated by a certain fatalism that makes them unbreakable people. You will never see them cower if adverse conditions turn catastrophic. The Tuaregs love the desert; they see it as a clean, unforgiving, hard and dangerous place. According to their philosophy, to survive in the desert you have to become part of it, never take it as an adversary. When they move between the dunes they are completely silent, their robes flowing in the shadows, blurring their silhouettes, as phantom veils…
