Immortals (2nd Edition)

Type 2 battle walkers are considerably heavier than the Type 1, and are employed when only a sledgehammer will suffice. Trading mobility for devastating firepower, the mere sight of a squadron of these imposing juggernauts is often enough to send the enemy running for cover.

The Odin Class is the most common Type-2 variant encountered by UCM forces. It mounts a pair of RX-1 railguns, making it lethal against all hardened targets. Its superior armour makes it a deadly adversary in protracted firefights. The Zeus Class is optimised for the command role with a communications array and the experimental 'Aegis' energy shield, which - when coupled with the Type-2's heavy armour - this gives the commander excellent protection when leading from the front.


The Immortals are the frontline infantry of the PHR. The combination of prosthetic upgrades and punishing training makes them frighteningly dangerous opponents on the battlefield. A whole series of military-grade artificial enhancements are mandatory for soldiers of the Republic, honing these cyborgs to martial perfection.

Able to communicate by thought alone, they fight in eerie silence. This increases their effectiveness both from a tactical standpoint, and by eroding the morale of the enemy.

Immortals are usually armed with the remarkable RXp-57 autosensing assault rifle, a belt fed weapon which can lay down sustained fire without reloading. Squad firepower is augmented by the RXp-14 'Longreach' rifle, giving the immortals anti-vehicle capability, as well as an excellent sniper weapon.

Encased within state of the art body armour, these faceless warriors can stand firm against withering firepower. Their cybernetic enhancements allow them to shut off the pain response, making anything less than instantly mortal wounds only partially effective at halting their inexorable advance. Hastily issued UCM military directives advise headshots as the surest means of dispatch.
