The Astranian Group

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.

Team Motherfucker

"Fucking Tozols!"

Tozols are built for war and have a variety of natural capabilities that are, frankly, complete bullshit. At least that's what everyone else thinks. The Tozol merely consider you to be ridiculously inadequate.

Assets

Personnel

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.
