GENERAL INFORMATION
  • Unit Name: The Hellstompers
  • Affiliation: Gress D'ran Gress D'ran , Wild Space Rebellion
  • 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 their abandonment of the GADF in favor of following their commander into the Wild Space Rebellion, the former Alliance Battalion is supremely capable with old and new equipment.

Strengths:
  • 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.
  • Rebel Tactics: Since going AWOL and joining the Wild Space Rebellion, the Hellstompers have adjusted their tactics. No longer do they rely on air superiority of the Alliance, but rather they rely on shock tactics, and heavy forward assaults.
Weaknesses:
  • Some Maintenance Required: While the Hellstompers during their days in the Alliance could rely on easy access to depots and fallback points to repair, now they rely on sparse resources from Si Tech alone to keep them fed and fixed. Should the 34th be put in a position where they are cut off, it would be easier to wittle them down.
  • 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.
HISTORICAL INFORMATION:
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. With the Enclave War seemingly a flash in the pan, the 34th quickly found themselves retasked with taking on what would become the Dark Empire, as well as the Sith Order.

Their first new assignment was holding the line on Yavin, which was done valiantly had it not been for the ordered retreat off the planet. Thus began the legend of the 'Undefeated 34th'.

First engaging Kroeger Kroeger 's Iron Legion on Onderon, the 34th showed it's merit against former NIO tech, holding it's own against the Cataphracts of the Iron Legion, the 34th's heavy walkers and reliance on supressive barrages allowed the GA forces to push back the imperial war machine. The same could be said about their second encounter on Empress Teta, the 34th holding a river by destroying several key crossing points across the river, forcing the Imperials to rely on repulsortech and heavy walkers to cross the river under fire.


Their first run in with the Sith's newly formed Chaos Pact, came at Mirial, with a total strategic victory against the fanatic horde, heavy armor and superior firepower crushing the horde under their steel boots.

Their shining moment was, thus far, the Defense of Coruscant, the Hellstompers playing a pivotal role in acting as a bulwark of the defense, and eventually heavy support of the counter offensive against the Imperial Forces.

Following the Fall of the Core, The 34th were faced with a rather doomed existance. Their supplier, Si Tech, had fled the core in favor of Wild Space, and in a bold move that would get him court martialed had the Alliance had the power stop him, Gress led his men out of Alliance space to follow the supplier, and many other Alliance units, to join the Wild Space Rebellion.
