Description
Overview:

Union Mechanized Rifle companies are the backbone of the Union military. Utilizing Whirlwind APC transports to provide rapid mobility these forces can quickly out maneuver the opposition and take objectives they have been assigned. Led by a veteran commander who can automatically judge the situation of any battle the troops can rapidly deploy at a moments notice.

Company command squad: led by the company commander this squad is made up from veterans and general staff, usually complemented by a heavy weapon in the form of a guardian ML. in the squad we can also see an artillery spotter as well for heavy artillery batteries behind the lines. They also have a Whirlwind APC for transport.

Light artillery detachment: Made up from 3 Whirlwind Missile variants these light artillery vehicles can shower missiles over a wide area and can damage most opponents though they are mainly tasked with close fire support requested by other units in the company.

Air defense detachment: Made up of Whirlwind Hellfire launchers and laser units these provide anti air for the company alongside the Guardian MANPAD and the laser area denial also protects against artillery and missile strikes on the company.

Recon element: Consisting of 3 Rapier hover tanks and 2 Whirlwind Observation units these are the outriders of the company and scout ahead identifying enemies and potential threats, in battle they often escort other tanks and use their hover units to attack enemy formations from unexpected angles, though the rapid fire 50mm cannon might not damage an enemy MBT the 4 Spiral AT missiles on the turret are more than capable of reducing enemy tanks to scrap.

Assault Section: consisting of 5 squads of Hawk assault infantry they are primarily used for either outriding or assaulting urban positions in city warfare. Typically deployed from low flying transports or bound across the battlefield with their jump packs they give the company additional rapid shock and awe capability.

ATGM section: With 3 ATGM squads and Whirlwind APCs these teams can be given to the platoons along with units from the support platoon to engage heavy enemy armour and destroy it from long ranges.

MANPAD Section: With 3 MANPAD teams and their APCs like the ATGMs are attatched to the platoons with their Guardian missile launchers able to provide anti air and light anti armour where needed.

Heavy MG Section: With 3 Heavy MG teams and their APCs they can be like the other support teams attatched to squads or platoons with their heavy plasma MGs to surpress enemy infantry and engage infantry threats.

Support Platoon: Conisting of a command squad, 2 ATGM teams, 2 MANPAD teams, 2 Heavy MG teams, 2 Engineer squads and 4 Infantry squads in Whirlwind IFVs this platoon is distributed up to help the mechanized platoons with additional heavy firepower of the support teams, engineer support for close combat support and repair capability and rapid light strike capability from the IFV Whirlwinds and their squads.

Skia Maniple: The Skia provide close combat capabilities to the entire formation and these 3 Skia are used for clearing fortifications, destroying enemy vehicles and mainly for taking out enemy threats to the company, their abilities being highly destructive to the enemy.

Light AT Section: Consisting of a Recon Warrior and 3 Warrior ATGM variants these small vehicles can quickly keep pace with the company and provide rapid deployment ATGM firepower where needed against enemy tank formations.

Mechanized platoons: The mechanized platoons are made up of the fighting men and women of the Union and are commanded by platoon and squad command squads. each squad has a mix of weapons APR-50s, MAS Rifles, Heavy MGs and also a Guardian ML for anti tank and a radio operator to direct close fire support. These squads are also mounted in Whirlwind APCs and can rapidly deploy across the battlefield to storm enemy positions and exploit breaks in the line made by the armour companies
