   World war one happened the exact same as it did in reality, with the only difference being that plane technology and bomb manufacturing had been excelled, causing wars that happened later to be dominated by air combat. Many veteran soldiers on both sides usually have fought during the great war.

   All weapons in the underground war mainly consist of on both sides bolt action rifles and guns that come from World War 1 or earlier. Automatic weapons, weapons with magazines and heavy weapons are almost never used.

   Once everyone had gone underground, the Royal Nation and Golden Empire continued to fight each other despite the state of the world. Thus dubbed the underground war, this war is fought through intensive close quarters tunnel warfare, with most of the fighting happening over depots, ruins, outposts, structures, train stations and sometimes entire underground towns. Most of these structures are built by the Solace Coalition, though some of these spots are built by either side. Death is very common, and war is currently a stalemate, with no end in sight.

   After the initial surface war which lead to much of the earth uninhabitable, other than a few safe spots in Asia and Africa, and very far north in Canada, everyone had gone underground, and with the Royal Nation and the Golden Empire still fighting, the underground war had started. Years and years have past, and the current year is 1925, with both sides at a stalemate, with brutal tunnel fighting, sickness, famine and death being a very common sight. Everyone lives underground, and everyone will most likely die underground without seeing the surface ever again, or at all. Both factions whenever they control an area often build much need infrastructure, though not all of their citizens demands can be met.

   The Royal Nation, a "democracy" led by a council of kings, is a collection of nations like Canada, America, Poland, Italy and Brazil. It isn't a full democracy, as only those of royal lineage can vote, those being called Princes. Much of their military uniforms are based on World War 1 German uniforms and US civil war confederate uniforms. They often have men in power, as due to Golden Empire propaganda, they often put women down, though women can join up in the military. The Royal Nation is not a very diverse country.

   The Nation is a progressivist country, using more technology and modernizing equipment, such as using electric lamps for example. Rampant corruption and desertion plague the Royal Nation, with people often valuing money, power and reputation over personality and morality. The Nation is volatile and militaristic, with questionable methods for staying in power. They are known to execute their own Kings for not aligning with the rest, and utilize the fear of punishment and dishonesty in order to force soldiers to comply and continue fighting.

   The Nation’s ideology is based on freedom, liberty and democracy. They value individuality, but are collectivist when it comes to nationwide matters. They are politicians, experienced in logistics, management and political deception. As an added benefit, having multiple leaders makes them disposable and easily replaceable.

   They despise the Golden Empire, wanting to exterminate them due to their fanatical beliefs and for the apparent assassination of one of their own Princes, causing the war. Although this is highly debated, and it is most likely that the Royal Nation started the war with a setup, it is still debated, and most Royal Nation citizens believe that the Golden Empire were the ones who started the war. They shun and usually mark anyone as a traitor if a Royal Nation citizen were to believe in the Golden Empire's religion.

   The Golden Empire are a fanatical cult-like dictatorship nation that is led by a Queen who is believed to be the Virgin Mary herself. The Golden Empire is a very diverse country, having people from Europe, South America and Asia being apart of the Golden Empire. their uniforms being based on high medieval uniforms. The main people in power under the Queen is her religious inquisition, who police and enforce faith across the Golden Empire.

   The Empire’s predominant ideology is based on morals, unity and togetherness. They value loyalty, honesty and brotherhood. They give their faith to a centralized religion, which is most likely a mix and mash of an off-shoot archaic Christianity and alongside some much more newer principles to fit their standard. They believe everyone has a role in life- believing that women being great leaders with strong moral compasses, whilst men are great warriors with great bodies and unbreakable spirits. The Golden Empire is a traditionalist country, preferring old values and older technology, for example, using oil lanterns instead of electric lamps, and embracing a pseudo medieval life for its citizens. But this does not mean it rejects technology or progression, using much of the same weaponry and tactics of its enemy.

   There is no sin worse than betraying your faith, maybe other than disappointing the Queen. The Empire boasts undying loyalty, nearly impervious to corruption or desertion. United by a single faith, but sacrificing what makes you “human”. The Empire believes themselves to be the peak of human morality. Anyone who refuses to conform is a heretic and must be prosecuted, by imprisonment or execution. Neither children nor their own imperials are safe from the executioner’s sword.

   If the Queen were to die, then the Empire would surely collapse. But she has a lot of time and is still in her prime, thus an heir or heiress can be trained for when she eventually passes.

   The Golden Empire believes that the Royal Nation are the ones to blame for the underground war happening, as there is no 'proof' that they assassinated a Royal Nation prince. But at the same time, tensions had been growing between both factions, and it wouldn't have been a surprise at all if a Golden Empire assassin had done the deed. Clashing ideologies, and the Queen's propaganda and assertions that the Royal Nation's ideology is nonsense meant war, with the Golden Empire wanting to eradicate the Royal Nation.

   All Golden empire soldiers no matter what type of soldier they are (excluding conscripts) have a base uniform, that unless stated should be equipped with. The base uniform is either brown leather boots or black boots, brown linen hosen or cotton trousers, a gambeson of some sorts and brown leather gloves.

   All Royal Nation soldiers no matter what type of soldier they are (excluding conscripts) have a base uniform, that unless stated should be equipped with. The base uniform being black boots, dark grey pants and a dark grey world war 1 German trench coat or a dark grey US civil war confederate uniform.

   With the surface gone, and people moving into tunnels- people have adapted to living down there with equipment. Everyone has at least these 3 things, from a lowly citizen to a high ranking officer, everyone has a pickaxe to dig and a lantern of some sorts, with gas lanterns being used by the Golden Empire, and electric lanterns being used by the Royal Nation. Every man, woman and child has a pickaxe, no matter where they are.

   Weapon Masters or New Boots, Soldats are those usually plucked right out of their first deployment as a Conscript, choosing to focus on their ability to handle fire-arms and general combat tactics over other specialisations.

   Soldats make up the majority work-force of both the Royal Nation and Golden Empire, not many are gifted in the ways of humanitarian aid of the Mortician, physical fitness like the Rooks, mental instability like the Jægers or the fanatical loyalty like the Lancers; these are just regular men and women who serve their duty, to listen to orders and execute these orders best they can.

   They fight for not just their nation, empire, country or lives, but for the future. A future for when the war will finally come to a close, and when lives can finally return to normalcy.

   Men and women of duty are the future of a dying world, and a fact that remains is, a world without ‘normal’ good-willed people is one doomed to conflict, greed, envy and superiority, so Soldats fight, and they fight hard, to ensure the world is not only a better place, but one worth caring for.

   Soldats were often tasked to carry extra ammunition for their fellow soldiers when needed, you could only carry so much on you when you were a more specialised role after all—ammunition had to be given up in place for stimulants, throwing axes, construction materials and other knick nacks that were far better suited for the task at hand.

   There wasn’t much to say about Soldats, they made up the majority of the fighting force and were the ones tasked to doll out ammo, put rounds down range and keep their heads down when needed. They weren’t special, but they didn’t need to be, because behind every rifle is a person, and not every person needs to be special, just a person with humanity behind those eyes is all you need.

   Perhaps that was for the better in the end, when you become ‘special’, your flaws expose who you really are underneath, narcissism, depression, arrogance, disillusion, sociopathy and blind loyalty. It’s okay to be ‘normal’. Normal is what kept us alive, what keeps the light on, and maybe soon enough, sunlight will crack through the earth for us.

   The collective term for Soldats is a Soldat Brigade.

   Soldats are the standard infantry of the Royal Nation and Golden Empire, being the main composition of most armies. Soldats come in many forms, whether being fresh troops pressed into service, or veterans who've fought during the great war- as a result, most soldiers on the field of battle are soldats due to their ambiguity. Jack of all trades and master of none, soldats are equipped with more ammunition than others.

   Efficient in construction and demolition, the venerable Rooks take pride in their work and their body. Few can stand up to the treacherous works of the Rooks, while most may believe the Lancers or Vanguards as the most fearless, it is truly the Rooks who can weather the greatest storms and show the true bravery amongst their un-appreciated efforts.

   Mining in the caverns have always been dangerous, but for more reasons than just exhaustion, tunnel cave-ins and wayward traps of mother nature; it is also time. Every second spent that is not digging towards the next forward camp or preparing defenses is a second for the enemy to take advantage of. They train day and night, shaping their bodies and donning heavy gear that can take shrapnel and collapses, the Rooks will be the ones to pave victory to a squad, the pillar of true hope, not twisted fanaticism.

   The Rook Division sought for a way to blast rocks at a distance – in these tunnels, collapses were common and our soldiers are not stupid – they knew they could not keep mining in a straight line especially with a chance of the ceiling falling on their heads. Using a forgotten blueprint blueprint design of a cut down ‘Judgement’ grenade launching device that never reached trials, the Rook Division worked closely with the Solace Coalition to develop the long ranged Mining Bomb Launcher, a design that nearly became lost to time, failing to meet trials for a second time.. has been given a new life – and passed with flying colours.

   The collective term for Rooks is a Rook Division.

   Rooks are the main engineers and miners on both sides, generally more heavily armored and equipped with better weapons and bigger tools. They are some of the stronger soldiers, often being taller and stronger than most soldiers.

   Rooks on both sides are equipped with an array of tools alongside their weapons. This includes a mine grenade launcher, able to blast through rocks but isn't very effective against people unless point blank, construction tools used to create barriers and other types of defenses and a heavy pickaxe which requires great strong to use but is able to clear out rocks faster than a normal pickaxe.

   Surgical precision, humanitarian aid, or simply peacekeepers, the Mortician knows no bounds. Field medics proved valuable on the battlefield, but with more advances in the technology of murder, the bodies piling up faster than the wounds could be mended.

   Morticians often employ experimental treatment, procedures and chemical compounds to fight back against the rising corpses, perhaps their constant meddling of the dead is what gave them the name they bear now; that, or their ruthless tenacity in combat from over-indulgence of their own stimulants. They tread the fine line between life and death, understanding that saving the lives of others are as important as taking them, whether by their own hands or their wicked experiments.

   This war could not end fast enough.

   Morticians earned their name for effectively being the grave-keepers for most Soldiers here, handling dead bodies for burial, burning, or in rare cases, experimentation. Their fully sealed masks keep them safe from the risk of cave plague when dealing with bodies or just performing medical tasks in general, sticking ones finger in wounds to assess the damage is a great way to be crippled for life with the cave plague.

   While not a primary fighting force, they are still expected to fight when needed, given basic Soldat training like many other roles on the field, which also solidified the ‘Mortician’ in their name once more. Burials were important, it allowed souls to come to rest, stories of ghosts haunting for those who never got a proper burial were common in the caves, even those who aren’t the superstitious type can attest to hearing creakings and moans in the walls when it got quiet.

   So the Morticians took their handle seriously, they provided aid to those above the rocks, and allowed those underneath to come to rest, their duty is sacred and joking about such might lead you with a headache in the next morning.

   The collective term for Morticians is a Mortician Wing.

   Morticians are the medics, healing and operating on people mid combat. They are doctors, but they are still equipped with guns. All morticians are equipped with a variety of combat stimulating drugs, these drugs being: Bicardine, which helps with pain. Synaptizine, which gives adrenaline and increases speed. Mephedrone, which gives more energy. Hydrocodone, which calms nerves. Haloperidol, which enhances reaction times. Amatoxin, which makes people who inhale without proper mask protection sick with disease, usually pox.

   Strategic, intelligent and leader would be what the Officers refer to themselves, others prefer; Upstuck, pretentious and arrogant. It is a known fact that many Officers paid their way to their positions and frequently demanding the respect out of veterans of the caves merely due to their—often limited—experience during the surface, to sub-par results.

   However, despite the prestigious title being filled by men and women who take pride in ordering poor innocent soldiers to their deaths—there are those a true class above—Officers who have seen what the war is really like, and it is these heroes who often turn the tides of a losing battle as most veterans often retire to the Officer role, using their expertise on the muddy grounds to carve a path forward to ending the war once and for all. Although ask most Officers, they’ll certainly tell you they are of higher caliber than such.

   Despite the name ‘Officer’, the role was likened a lot more to that of a Scout, carrying less gear, a telescope, binoculars and generally being well versed enough to write cleanly, Officers mapped out the terrain, defined where to go, points of interest, potential ambushes, attack routes and the lot—of course this was only the experienced Officers who knew what they were doing and weren’t the ones hiding in the back shouting ‘Enemy over there!’ as if the fellow soldiers around them are blind.

   Their transition to becoming the role of an Officer was more of a self-appointed decision, with so many soldiers especially from different nationalities, they needed a lot of communication amongst them—so Scouts took up the mantle to organising where to go with their maps, which were far easier to understand than simple speech.

   The collective term for Officers is an Officer Watch.

   Officers are self explanatory, being mostly made up of soldiers who went through proper officer academies or paid their way to become an officer. They often boast about themselves, being the most arrogant type of soldier, but there are veteran officers, even if rare. All officers are equipped with binoculars, a whistle to order soldiers to charge, defend, or focus fire, and usually a fancy hat custom made.

   Jægers are dirty people. Often known for their cheap tricks and pushing the boundary of what is considered morally acceptable in these times of war.

   War is horrific, it always is, it always will be, it is not and never will be a subject that the men and women who fought will take lightly, but there is a simple fact— whether people wish to agree or not— that there are men and women who have no boundaries, who can say they relish or enjoy the bloodshed of war.

   The Jæger Corp welcomes these people, shaping them to who they are, and the instruments in this kit are their voice, whether it would be for laying contraptions, sabotaging the opposition, or plain interrogation and torture.

   The collective term for Jaegers is a Jaeger Corp.

   Because Jaegers use pox ammunition, their bullets are poisoned. One of Jaegers' jobs is hunting rats and similar rodents.

   Jaegers are traps specialists and scouts, wearing much more discrete uniforms. They are often scummy, and under handed people, hated equally on the opposing and same side. All Jeagers are equipped with a trap set, that includes dynamite, bear traps, tripwire, barb wire and tear gas. Due to their sneaky nature, they are often shorter, but much more swift than most soldiers. They also have special pox rounds that can give disease if a shot lands into an enemy. They torture, kill, and most likely do horrific actions to captured prisoners of war, meaning that death over being captured by jaegers is more preferrable.

   The Lancers are the shining beacon of this horrible war, a sign of fearless-ness and unparamount devotion to the cause. Often times considered fanatics who will charge head first into the enemy, it is nonetheless effective when seeing your fellow allies skewered by the un-waivering loyalty and wrath of their oppositions.

   Whether it is the bayonet of the Royal Nation or the pole-axe of the Golden Empire, when raised high and their flags billow in the air, fear will always take the hearts of the enemy as they ask themselves: Who will be the corpse hoisted into the spears of zealotry?

   Many ask why they forgo an iron – while there are certainly a few who stay true with a firearm – there have been many cases of a Lancer’s pistol being used against them in the close confines of combat. Scavenging and looting is also prevalent in these caves and a dead Lancer – of which is a common sight with their matryrdom life style – can provide additional armaments to their opposition.

   The Throwing Axe is the equalizer, requiring extreme precision and skill that the average soldier could not hope to learn with their weeks worth of training. These Lancers take pride in their mastery of the tool and will not hesitate to execute their foes for the glory of the war. Once the war ends, Lancers wish to be remembered, and as they stand upon the corpses of the fallen, photos and illustrations of them will be remembered through-out history

   Irregular units trained in valour and ambush tactics, mortars and machine gun fire provided suppression for cavalry to swoop in and disrupt enemy formation and infrastructure, the Lancer Legion became a well respected name despite their martyrdom-like life style, of course charging at enemies with machine guns and rifles with nothing but a spear would be dangerous, but soldiers needed something to hold onto, they needed strength and courage, while Officers sat in the back yelling at men to charge to their deaths, Lancers would give soldiers this glimmer of hope and confidence to make that charge needed to break through the defenses.

   When the war went underground though, while the resolve of most men and women fell, Lancers only grew, their loyalty to service stronger, although considered rather reckless at times. While most doctrines have changed, with many horses falling ill due to the cave plague, the Lancer Legion still served, charging head first into the fray and with improvements to their helmets, can withstand even rifle rounds although with quite the concussion, making them the perfect formation breaker.

   The collective term for Lancers is a Lancer Legion.

   Lancers, are heavily armored fanatical polearm wielding soldiers. The Golden Empire favors lancers, but the Royal Nation do have them. They are known for their zealousness on both sides, with the Golden Empire famous and infamous for their lancers despite being a somewhat rare type of soldier. All lancers have a polearm of sorts, and use hand axes instead of guns, as well as a combat stimulant that is a cocktail of painkilling drugs that allow them to ignore pain and grievous injuries for a few minutes. Lancer helmets on both sides are practically indestructible, with nothing other than large anti-material rounds being able to put a dent into them. Lancers are comprised of the most fanatical soldiers on each side, and usually the strongest- being taller and much more stronger than most, usually being as strong as rooks but much more faster. They are well known for horrific almost suicidal like charges.

   During the first Great War, the mobile personnel shields were an experimental form of protection used during trench warfare, providing protection to soldiers akin to that of armoured vehicles, allowing a slow, but steady advance to those behind it. However, it proved just simply too cumbersome and heavy to even consider using and rarely saw much use during said war, soon scrapped to the pile of experimental ideas that never saw light again.

   As battles raged under the soil, the need for armoured vehicles—of which there were little in functioning order—grew more, and so the Royal Nation took back to looking at the original mobile shield design. Scrapping a majority of the weight by cutting it down with a segmented locking design inspired by trench body plate, they developed their vision perfectly of a mobile advancing cover. It had its flaws, it was still relatively heavy and unwieldy, but it served its duty far better than most designs at the time.

   The Royal Nation designated the first crew to see deployment with the shields: The Vanguards.

   When the bombs fell, many were left homeless, starving, ill, while the Soldats focused on putting bullets down the field, the Morticians tending to the wounded, the Officers spotting for the ground, the Jaegers laying for ambush behind enemy lines and the Lancers deep in enemy territory, the progenitors to the Vanguards helped the civilians who soon became the members for the Solace Coalition.

   Often these pre-Vanguards were Soldats who decided to take a different route to combat, focusing more on providing covering fire with faster firing rifles rather than actively trying to take out enemy combatants, these men and women were self-less until the very end, inspiring fellow soldiers with just enough morale in these dark times to keep going.

   They earned the respects of many, but sadly became easy picking for opposing soldiers who cared naught for their deeds—yet despite this—they still try to lend a hand to those in need, whether enemy or not. The Vanguards were officially formed with the creation of the Bulwark’s Shield, one of the few roles that came to be under the earth and soon to be retired when the war comes to a close and the surface may be returned to once more.

   But until then, they will protect, they will provide a safe haven to the soldiers beside them, and they will inspire confidence that no matter what, morals cannot be taken away from us—no matter how bleak it may be.

   ‘The Old Guard’ are the common terms used to describe most Vanguards, and there is truth to it after all, most Vanguards are those of older folks, usually more well suited and able-bodied enough to carry a massive shield compared to most other young soldiers at the time. Vanguards who hold themselves as bastions for the weak, those who are self-less and believe that life is sacred, so much so that it is not an un-common sight to see Vanguards that forgo a pistol.

   The sanctity of life is their belief, and while they hope for the war to come to a swift end, there will be nothing left of civilisation if we all end up as barbarians fighting for scraps of dying lands—so they prop themselves high—for friend or foe.

   Vanguards are heavy shield carrying soldiers, supporting other soldiers. Due to vehicles becoming almost useless in tunnel warfare, vanguards were created by the Royal Nation to make up for the lack of usable tanks, as such, the Royal Nation favors vanguards but the Golden Empire do have them. All vanguards have a large bullet-proof shield that is as large as their bodies- with the only thing able to even dent the shields being anti-material rounds, these shields having extended armor panels that aren't as bullet-proof as the main shield, meaning that they can be shot off. Most vanguards are made up of older and stronger soldiers who have fought during the Great War, often dubbed the 'old guard', as well as a good chunk of the old guard being pacifist. They are most likely the strongest soldiers in any army, but most likely the slowest. They are the most kindest and selfless people, and as such most soldiers who surrender often surrender to vanguards, knowing that they will be well taken care of. Vanguards despise jaegers.

   Conscripts as the name describes are unfortunate people who have been forcibly pressed into service by both sides, often used during dire situations or by uncaring commanders. They are made up of anyone who can carry a rifle or a weapon, young, old, children and the sickly, it doesn't matter as long as they can technically fight. Most conscripts if they survive after a battle is done return back to civilian life, though a good chunk of soldiers came from being conscripts, with most soldats, rooks and jaegers being ex-conscripts.

   Shock troopers are the ultimate soldiers on the battlefield. Equipped with heavily specialized equipment, armed to the teeth and veterans of the underground war- they are only used during important operations or to turn the tide. They are terrifying, but are very rare on the battlefield.

   Storm troopers are often veteran soldats who have been deemed worthy enough to become a shock trooper. They are given automatic rifles instead of their normal weapons. Storm troopers on both the Royal Nation and Golden Empire are given powerful mp-18 submachine guns with 32 rounds, with storm troopers being equipped with as many magazines as they can carry. Storm troopers are the most common type of shock troopers.

   AT troopers are often rooks who have been deemed worthy enough to become shock troopers. Given a 5-round magazine Winchester-Pugsley anti-tank rifle that fires .50 Remover rounds, it destroys and punches through anything. It is able to remove rock, barricades, and whatever the AT trooper is aiming at. Only the strongest and most veteran of rooks can even aim and fire this thing, as anyone else who isn't trained on it will most often fire and be sent falling due to how powerful this thing is.

   Flame troopers are often morticians that have been deemed worthy enough to become a shock trooper. They are given World War 1 style flamethrowers, with large circular fuel tanks on their backs. This flamethrower has around a minute and a half of fuel, but all flame troopers understand that to use the flamethrower well- one has to burst fire with it. Due to their limited fuel tank, they are given snubnose Grace revolvers in case they run out of fuel.

   Radio troopers are often officers who have been chosen to become radio operators. They are given a modified version of the Honour duty pistol- a carbine version, with a longer barrel, extended magazine and a stock, being based on the trench carbine version.

   Due to their role, radio troopers are equipped with a specialized mobile radio set called the SCR-54-A, being a portable radio receiver. As a result of this, radio troopers are given headsets, and most if not all radio troopers due to them being officers and their weird refusal to wear helmets- don't have them (Though they may argue that it's due to the bulk of the headset, this is questionable at best).

   Geist troopers are often jaegers who have been deemed worthy enough to become a shock trooper. They are given powerful semi-automatic rifles based on the Mondragón rifle, firing 7.25mm rounds, being able to fire 10 rounds until having to reload with stripper clips containing 5 bullets. These rifles are silenced as well. Geist troopers often use more camouflage, with their eyes having adapted to the dark to the point of where they do not need to use lanterns to see.

   Bulwark troopers are often vanguards who have been deemed worthy enough to become a shock trooper. They trade their heavy shields for a large neigh-indestructible deployable shield that acts as solid cover and a good firing position. Their main weapon is a machine gun, based on the British lewis gun, having a capacity of 47 rounds that fire .303 smokeless rounds. These Lewis guns have bipods to better help stabilize when firing, and have gun shields to protect the machine gunner better. Due to how heavy and unwieldly the machine gun is when moving, bulwark troopers are given sub-nosed grace revolvers for self defense. With how expensive machine guns are, bulwark troopers are one of the rarest types of shock troopers, rivaling trench troopers in rarity because of cost.

   Trench troopers are often lancers who have been deemed worthy to become shock troopers. They are given heavily modified trench shotguns based on the Winchester Model 1897, having a 6 round capacity and firing 00 buckshot shells, with a fearsome bayonet on the end of their trench guns. They also have flags on their backs, representing the trench troopers faction, or regimental colors if they come from one. Due to the nature and martyr like role lancers have, trench troopers are the most rarest shock troopers- but are some of the feared shock troopers out there, as it is very uncommon for lancers to become veterans, and even more when they reach enough experience to be deemed worthy for their spot. Trench troopers often strap as much ammo as they have onto themselves, often having multiple slings of shotgun shells on them.

   Dreadnoughts are heavily armored people doused with combat drugs and given heavy machine guns, trapped within heavy armor and sent to die gloriously for their side, being martyrs. They are essentially tanks- but due to the suffering for both the enemy and the person using the dreadnought armor, they are almost never used in battle, and only used during the most important operations or when an important operation seems doomed. Only a dozen dreadnoughts are used per year, and all dreadnought users die during the battle, with the armor ripped off their overheated carcasses for use later.

   Nicknamed 'The Iron Coffin', the 'Dreadnought’ armor is not something you recover from. It is strapped as tightly as possible, often with so much pressure on the skin that it is impossible to utilize correctly without a dosage of painkillers, often a lethally high dosage. It is airtight, not letting any air in or out of the suit. It traps heat inside, including the heat you passively irradiate. You are cooking yourself alive. If you wear it, you are not taking it off alive.

   The ‘Dreadnought’ is rarely utilized, as there is rarely a situation that would require such drastic measure. Desperate situations require desperate solutions - a last ditch effort. Only those loyal enough to their cause, and ones that are consciously willing to do so, are given the chance to wear this armor. A fanatical, unwavering determination to serve your duty, either moral or holy. Both sides recognize the inhumanity within it. But regardless of whether you call it heroism or fanaticism, the ‘Dreadnought’ is there to remain - and you don’t want to be the one fighting against it.

   The suit of armor is designed as an alternative to tanks, due to the latter being incredibly difficult to operate underground. It is for this reason that the ‘Dreadnought’ is packed with as much steel as possible, ensuring maximum resistance and protection at the expense of the user.

   Their official names and models don't necessarily refer to firearms in this timeline; rather, they have been given new names, as their original ones have been lost to history and altered due to political and battlefield influences.
