Assault Kommando advancing with his carbine and shield
The Motherland’s wars have given rise to a new type of soldier bolstered with defiant patriotism and grim resolve. The brutal and effective Assault Kommandos are the edge of the Khadoran sword of conquest. Serving on the front lines of western Immoren’s most hostile battlefields, these troops drive the enemy from the trenches and break their will using cold, calculated efficiency.[1]
Assault Kommandos are an evolution in trench warfare. Heavily armed and armored, they make use of advanced alchemical weaponry to augment their battle training. They advance on the enemy behind a wall of shields, opening fire with their carbines and poisoning the air with choking gas. Led by Kommander Viktor Strakhov, the kommandos proved pivotal in the Siege of Northguard. Their aim fouled by gas and their eyes burning and blurry, hundreds of gravediggers were swept up in systematic slaughter.[1]
The kommandos are armed with the latest Vislovski carbines complete with gun blades ready to rip through armor and flesh and underslung canister launchers that deliver a debilitating payload of sickening strangle gas. Golden Crucible alchemy has refined their equipment so that kommando armor is resistant to fire, acid, and arcane assault. Their masks protect them from the lingering effects of their own insidious weaponry while allowing their vision to pierce billowing clouds of smoke and fog of war.[1]
