Strengths:
- Fanatics - The Crimson Oath are fanatically loyal to Darth Morta personally; to them, death is preferable to failure.
- Shock Troops - The Crimson Oath, as a guard unit, excels at taking down infantry and infiltration units. Getting in the face of their opponents and beating them down, making intimidation as much of a weapon as their gear.
- Slow to replace - Due to their disposition as an elite unit and the oath they are required to swear to Darth Morta, reinforcements drip in slowly. If they are heavily depleted during battle, it may take months before the unit is back up to full strength.
- Heavy Armour - Though having access to explosives, The Crimson Oath's standard gear is oriented around killing infantry, lightly to heavily armoured. They can deal with light vehicles like airspeeders and speeder bikes, but vehicles such as APCs, Tanks, and Walkers are beyond their ability to fight without a third-party unit's assistance or borrowed equipment.
Pulled from the very top of the Krayiss II militia and further filtered for loyalty to Darth Morta personally, The Crimson Oath are the peak of what Krayiss II can produce militarily. Every member makes a personal oath of loyalty to Darth Morta on top of the oaths sworn simply as a militia member.
Serving in The Crimson Oath is not just a path to personal benefit, but familial advancement as well. Children of a serving member are given access to high-quality schooling reserved for the elite, moved into housing in better districts, and should a member of the oath be killed in combat their family will continue to receive these benefits. The flipside is that if a member of the Oath is found to be disloyal, the punishment of death is doled out to the family as well, before the eyes of that member.
