- Role: The Forward Fist of the GADF, allowing the ground forces the armored support to take on any objective.
- Permissions: My subs
- Links: N/A
- Unit Name: The Hellstompers
- Affiliation: Gress D'ran , The Galactic Alliance
- Classification: Armored Walker Battalion
- Description: Formed out of non-humanoid recruits, Gress formed the 34th into a well oiled machine. The 34th were created mostly as a test bed for newly adopted designs, as a way to allow the GADF a combat efficient way to throw stuff at the wall, and see what sticks. With the Maw beaten, and the war with the Mandos starting up, the GADF wanted a full restructure of it's technology, and the Hellstompers were the best way for command to allow things to see their baptism by fire.

- Equipment:
- "Firestorm" Walker Company:
- Combat Function: Trained in Walker warfare, Gress's general tactics as a commander rely on heavy forward assault, and overwhelming firepower from his walkers and tanks, while the men on the ground charge forward with support from the walkers. Heavy armor protects the men inside, while collaboration with other units allows the walkers to approach and suppress an objective unopposed.
- Force Abilities (Force User Units Only): N/A
- The Future of Warfare: Designed as a test bed for GADF designs, the Hellstompers are equipped with top of the line equipment, all heavily armored and equipped to defend itself.
- Shrug it Off: The tanks and walkers of the Hellstompers are designed to walk off extremely heavy fire that would put the fear of god in other armored units, including artillery strikes, CAS strikes, and even minor orbital bombardment.
- Combined Arms: Created as a supplement to the other GADF ground forces, the Hellstompers are the armored right hook to support the flurry of jabs of GADF infantry.
- Slooooow: The Hellstompers are not designed for speed. They are designed as walking fire support for other units. If you abandon them, they will eventually be overwhelmed.
- Xeno MFs: The Hellstompers are full of alien troopers. They tend to be a bit tough to work with as a result, and can be seen as the odd man out in a battle.
- Battle Buddies: The Hellstompers, due to being seen as general outcasts within the GADF due to their biology, are a tight knit unit. Any man lost is a tragedy, as everyone knows everyone by name.
Formed in response to a rise in Mando aggression within the outer rim, the Hellstompers were a newly formed unit by the time the Battle of Ryloth took place, just trained up to the point of combat readiness. Now with war officially declared, Gress D'ran, newly promoted to Lieutenant Colonel, pushed his battalion to the point of becoming the new standard for walker units. Promoting a sense of familial bonds and a training schedule most would scoff at, Gress brought his soldiers to the peak of what he could get them to achieve without a proper trial by fire.
Now only if they were to find out what lay for them in the field of combat.
