== Unit Types ==
 
== Wargear ==
 
=== Infantry Equipment ===
 
==== Astranian Raytech Weapons ====
 
Ray-tech weapons are extremely powerful, highly penetrative energy weapons. The most powerful ones will fucking vaporize you in a spray of superheated bone-shrapnel and meat foam, but even the weaker ones can punch through armor very effectively, chewing through several feet of concrete or stone armor in a few seconds of sustained fire. Usually only specialized energy shielding can deflect these incredibly destructive projectiles.
 
If a raytech weapon is submerged in water or similarly conductive fluids, they short out violently and cease to function until thoroughly dried and given a fresh power cell.
 
==== Blast Rifle ====
 
These infantry weapons fire non-penetrative, explosive energy projectiles with about as much force as a .50 Action Express hollowpoint - more than capable of splattering flesh to pulp, chewing apart wood and concrete, and gradually grinding down steel. They carry large reserves of ammunition and are reliable in the face of moisture, grit, or other adverse conditions; however, if fully submerged in water or similarly conductive fluids, they short out violently and cease to function until thoroughly dried and given a fresh power cell.
 
=== Vehicle Ordnance ===
 
==== Blast Cannons ====
 
These fast-firing weapons deploy a withering barrage of energy projectiles, akin to a GAU-8 with poorer armor penetration and significantly lower recoil and space requirements. They are poor at piercing heavy armor and shielding, and are weak and less accurate at long range as the pulses ablate in the atmosphere.
 
==== Disintigration "Annihilator" Cannons ====
 
These heavy, ponderous siege cannons fire enormous pulses of energy capable of vaporizing any vehicle the size of an enormous battle tank or smaller. They are poor at dealing with fast targets.
 
==== Flamenets ====
 
A flamenet is an incendiary cluster bomb weapon.
 
==== Magma Bombs ====
 
A magma bomb, when triggered, penetrates the earth and superheats the surrounding area sufficiently to liquify stone.
 
==== Precision Lasers ====
 
High-power, high-range, high-accuracy laser weapons with commensurately high waste heat. They can only fire intermittently due to extreme cooling requirements.
 
==== Selective Destruction Field ====
 
A massively powerful variant of the Astranian shield projector, which is basically going to kill anything that comes close.
 
== Army List ==
 
=== Air Armor ===
 
==== Warship Carrier (1) ====
 
Required Crew:
* 1 Pilot
* 10 Robotic Crew
* 10 Astranian Crew
 
==== Escort Heavy Gunships (2) ====
 
Required Crew:
* 1 Pilot
* 2 Astranian Crew
* 1 Astranian Specialist
* 4 Robotic Crew
 
==== Assault Gunships (6) ====
 
Required Crew:
* 1 Pilot
* 1 Robotic Crew
* 1 Astranian Specialist
 
==== Scout Fighters (7) ====
 
Required Crew:
* 1 Pilot
 
==== Heavy Transports (2) ====
 
Required Crew:
* 1 Pilot
* 1 Astranian Crew
* 2 Robotic Crew
 
=== Land Armor ===
 
==== Mobile Command Walker (1) ====
 
The Mobile Command Walker requires
* 1 Pilot
* 10 Robotic Crew
* 10 Astranian Crew
 
==== Heavy Assault Walkers (5) ====
 
Required Crew:
* 1 Pilot
 
==== Scout Walkers (6) ====
 
Required Crew:
* 1 Pilot
 
=== Personnel ===
 
*150 combat robots
*30 crew robots
*30 Astranian Combat marines
*20 Astranian crew personel
*30 Astranian Pilots
*10 Astranian specialists
*5 stealth operatives
*1 advanced tactical robot
*1 Astranian Psychic comander
*27 civilians
 
==== Advanced Tactical Robot (1) ====
 
This A.I. marvel is capable of substituting for 10 Robotic Crew, 10 Astranian Crew, and a pilot simultaneously. This means it is capable of independently crewing the Mobile Command Walker or the Warship Carrier.

On this isolated, sun-baked planet, an ancient tower reaches high into the sky, somehow draining ambient energy into itself in defiance of the laws of nature. None know what the purpose of this may be, but it is surely related to the seemingly bottomless shaft over which the tower hangs. The intense cold it generates about itself has created not only the frozen lake from which it rises but a tight ring of gradated climates wedged tight against each other, populated with alien flora and fauna.

Astranians and Scellor fight over a planet with a powerful, ancient artifact guarded by a small squad of Tozols.

Cancelled due to creative differences.[ref]

Cast

Astranians

366601.png

See: Astranian

Commander-Ritualist Ekia

Psychic space bat.

Tactica Command

Artificial Intelligence.


Scellor

Commander Radde San-Onnka

Radical dude.

Piyerra San-Onnka

See: Tozol

Lt. Vaejra

Lt. Vaejra is equipped with a cybernetic computer interface, a rarity these days, and specializes in information warfare. He has a broad skillset, however, and is over a century old.

Sgt Ota Karsti

Sgt Ota Karsti is not much younger, and has the stories to prove it. She knows fieldcraft, mines, traps, explosives, and every manner of entrenchment. She takes care of the squad, doing whatever she can to keep them in working order, physically and mentally.

Trooper Rinis Ayen

Trooper Rinis Ayen is a tinkerer, an engineer, and an aggressive and capable warrior. Though much younger than the old hands of the squad, she's fought aliens on five worlds. This will be her sixth.

Trooper Reya Oriat

Trooper Reya Oriat is the only other member of the squad with a cybernetic uplink, and serves as backup infowar and technician. She loves to read, claiming it gives her a xenopsychological edge.

Trooper Anak Utaza

Trooper Anak Utaza is the best rifleman on the squad, and carries the best rifle. All tozols are marksmen by design, and infantry by nature, but Anak has struggled to master small unit combat, often at the expense of the technical work that's dominated the squad's life for the past two decades Despite this, he's friends with everyone in the squad.

Trooper Thaen Sinh

Trooper Thaen Sinh is not native to Valatan, as the others are, and likes to tell wildly exaggerated stories of his early life on a nomad starship. He's a good mechanic, is responsible for running the base's fabricator, and the best pilot on the team.

Trooper Baj Oriat

Trooper Baj Oriat was born on this planet, the son of Reya and Anak, and is less than half as old as anyone else. To him, Valatan and tozol civilization are just one of many things he reads about, and he displays a worrying fascination with alien cultures as a result. Nevertheless, he's trusted to fight and kill.

Specialist Kaselir Vrin

Specialist Kaselir Vrin was deployed to this planet in a hibernation cocoon packed inside her tank destroyer, part of a rushed package to let the squad dig in for the long haul. Not being part of the original unit of pathfinders, she considers herself something of an outsider, even after all these years.

On this isolated, sun-baked planet, an ancient tower reaches high into the sky, somehow draining ambient energy into itself in defiance of the laws of nature. None know what the purpose of this may be, but it is surely related to the seemingly bottomless shaft over which the tower hangs. The intense cold it generates about itself has created not only the frozen lake from which it rises but a tight ring of gradated climates wedged tight against each other, populated with alien flora and fauna.
