Order of the S'Vacian

An elite sect of the Altean Army equipped with the best arms and armour it can provide, formed exclusively of Mechan soldiers. S'Vacian operations are characterized by their swift deployment and brutal efficiency. The Order is very taxing on the Altean supply line, hence its small size. 24 mechans form the Order: two squads of ten soldiers, a sergeant for each (Sergeant Orion and Sergeant Ademai), Lord Argus, and Sergeant Vacius, for whom the Order was named.

Assets

Each squad within the Order has a multitude of weapons available to them for any occasion, predominantly a Crusader rifle and Judicator shotgun/blade, along with a Harbinger for rapid deployment into any environment.
S'Vacian mechans are built armoured from head to toe, with Altanite-composite armour and weaved into a four-strip armour skirt. Their heads are fashioned to look like bucket helms and their shoulders are protected by large, rounded pauldrons designed to deflect blows and projectiles. They are painted a royal purple with a silver trim, a distinctive sign of who they are. Combined with a height of seven feet, these heavy soldiers are nigh on impossible to impersonate.
