Heroes of the Allies
Captain W. Parman - He's a mounted hero unit - an old horseman who doesn't believe in all these new fangled iron horses, but he has used some technology to keep his mount in the fight. He's added armor plating to protect his steed and added hydraulically dampened spring-loaded suspension units to its legs. His men love him dearly
M2 Wolverine - This is a stout armored trooper. He is a one-man prototype armored suit. He has a machine gun as one arm and shield as the other. The M2 Wolverine design was inspired by old diving bells
Put your infantry in his square and he'll wade right through any MG fire thrown at you!
General G. Patston - The man, the myth. A great tactician and master of troop movement. After graduating from East Point Military academy General Patston quickly rose through the ranks. Although known for his brash style and quick temper his success on the battlefield can not be denied. A cavalry man at heart, Patston is obsessed with mobility. He is a master of troop movement and is sure to get your men to front and into the fight!
When General Patston decides to lead his men into battle he makes sure to armor up. Wearing his steel plated hydraulically augmented combat suit, General Patston becomes a walking titan! Blocking enemy machine gun fire, lobbing explosive shells at the enemy, there isn't an allied soldier who wouldn't follow Patston into no-man's land.
The Vet (kickstarter exclusive) - He fought for his nation, for what he believed in, but he was betrayed by his commanding officer and left for dead. Now he's returned and looking for a little payback. With skills honed from years of fighting in the worst conditions this vet can take punishment as good as he dishes it out. When you're in the fight, you better hope the Veteran is on your side.
Cpl. Cher Ami - Cher Ami spent his youth on the roof of his home caring for the family pigeons. When war broke out he and his brave pigeons got right into the fight. With his amazing pigeon skills Cher is able to deliver messages with the upmost certainty that they will be delivered. When it's time to call in an artillery barrage Cher Ami is your best bet.
Lt. Edwina Brasseldun - Lt. Edwina Brasseldun, or the groundhog as her friends call her, is happier six feet underground than anywhere else on Rivet. Brasseldun is a subterranean engineer who cut her teeth working in the Timonium Spice mines. She is the foremost expert on underground transport and deployment. With her hit and run tactics she can tip the balance of any fight in her favor.
Lt. Mcleod - Mcleod is a man that other men look up to. He is a commander who is always with his soldiers and will always be found at the front of a charge. Hailing from the Northern tip of Brighton, Mcleod will lead a charge by playing his grandfather's ancient bagpipes, lifting the spirits of those around him. It is said that the sound of his pipes can keep a man on his feet when on all accounts he should be down for good. You'll march far and well with Mcleod in your ranks.
Reme Funck - Reme began his military flying career as a bomb thrower in a late model Bristol Tug. During a mission Reme's pilot was killed requiring Reme to take the controls and land the plane. Because of the shortage of pilots in the Nante area where they were fighting, Reme was promoted to pilot. He soon graduated to flying his own biplane and quickly demonstrated his aerial prowess by downing five Blighters in a day. As one of the Allies' top aces, Reme is always a welcome member of any allied air group.
Charles Yooger - Chuck was raised in the cornfields of the Eastern States of Brighton. His first job was flying an old crop duster for local farmers. When the call went out for pilots, Charles was the first in line to sign up for service on the Nante front. His years of flying between corn silos paid off quickly as he scored kill after kill against the Blightun air offensives. This is a pilot without fear who is always ready to dive his plane into action!
Terror Nova - "The Terror," as he's called, is actually a quiet man by nature. Blessed with a natural ability to fight, Terror Nova was thrown into the spotlight as a hero of the allied forces. But he never reveled in this fame. He only wished to help the cause and do his part. His one true wish was that the war might end and he would be able to save his lost friend Minie so that the two might return to their homeland and live in peace.
Uncle Rivet - For years Uncle Rivet was the headliner for a small time traveling rodeo show. Then one day General Patston attended a show and afterwards approached Uncle Rivet about helping with the war effort. Patston felt that Rivet's charisma and skill with a six shooter would captivate the nations imagination. Uncle Rivet could become the symbol of a unified allied force. But that wasn't enough for Rivet. He demanded he be put in the front lines where he soon proved his worth as a marksman and a leader. Now, between battles, Uncle Rivet tours the nations of the allied states boosting morale and production.
William "Shady" Durgle - Born on the Jersey coast of Brighton, William was always one to find the kink in the armor or the weakness in any design or situation. As a tank commander it is this skill which makes him unstoppable. Using tactics some would call unconventional, "Shady" uses his opponents' weaknesses to his advantage and avoids direct confrontation. He has never lost a tank or a single crew member in eight years of service.
