Faction: The Vari Coalition, a group formed by individuals of several species who shared the same values. They believe that up-close-and-personal combat is the soldier's highest calling. Thus, they have a great fondness for melee weapons(high-tech swords similar to an ancient German grosse messer, to be precise) and also the pulse rifle, a weapon which fires either a net of energy or a three-round burst of magnetically contained energy spheres at roughly 900 MPH. It is powerful, but soon loses its appeal at anything beyond a mile, at which point its accuracy goes to hell(though they will use massed volleys at longer ranges). To complement this style of fighting, the infantry wear excellent armor. There are, however, a squadron of soldiers with long-range rifles and lighter armor for every four regular ones. Their vehicles are mostly legged machines ("when you're stuck on a planet with a huge gravity well that fucks up your repulsors, while our tech is perfectly fine, you'll understand why") with the number of appendages changing depending on the vehicle. Leviathans are six-legged beasts with dozens of diverse weapons, heavy armor are four-legged, and scout vehicles are either two-legged or treaded.

Species: Talorté, a reptavian species with a tall average height and imposing physical capabilities.

Rank: General- but like all Coalition officers, he fights right there with his men. Of course, he treats himself to higher quality equipment than the mass-produced stuff the regular soldiers get.

Personality: serious with a dark sense of humor, and a slow but nasty temper. Don't strike a nerve with him.

Army composition: Recon Helix x2, Heavy Armor Helix (why spend money on aerial units when you can use AA weapons and Coalition artillery to do the same things?), Command Helix(he needs somewhere to fulfill his tactical duties). Core Helix:

1 Heavy walker

1 squad of medium walkers (3)

1 squad of recon walkers (5)

1 support tank (uses Nexus Designator to call in sky drops)

1 drop pod (I thought it would be a cool idea for you to launch your troops into combat via drop pod.)

1 Squad of Hellhounds (5 teams of five soldiers, one with long-ranged rifles instead of pulse rifles)

Recon Helix:

4 weapon emplacements (two equally strong variants, but one is better at killing infantry and light vehicles and the other is better at hitting aircraft. They too would be deployed via skydrop)

1 drop pod

1 smaller squad of extra elite infantry, with portable anti-armour guns

Recon helix 2:

Same

Heavy Armour Helix:

1 Heavy anti-armour tank

1 squad of tank hunters (3)

1 support tank (also has a nexus designator for skydrops)

Command Helix:

1 Mobile Command centre (could be deployed by skydrop if you wanted, or it could just be mobile in the normal sense, either way it has a nexus designator in addition to other armaments)

1 grand company of infantry(40 squads)

2 sky-drop weapon emplacements
