The new products of the month are out, and after knowing a little more about Varanguian Guard and Trinitarian Tertiaries, we leave you here some background of Shàn Jí Invincibles, 6th Airborne Reg. and Cyberghosts.
SHÀNG JÍ INVINCIBLES
Yu Jing is the leader! Once again the Yu Jing StateEmpire leads the technological vanguard of the Human Sphere! The collective genius, innovation, and effort are the strength and the spearhead of the People's Society. The best minds and the most advanced resources have successfully taken the next evolutionary step in servo-powered tactical protection. Yu Jing has once again revolutionized the concept of Heavy Infantry. The fourth generation of servo-powered combat armor represents a true qualitative leap in terms of mobility and info-biotechnological protection. Unique to its species the new Shàng Jí ("Superior") armor is quicker, lighter, and definitely better.
Only the highest quality material is used for the brave defenders of the People. Because of this, the tough core unit of the StateEmpire Army, those regiments of Invincibles with the most brilliant records will receive the new Shàng Jí model forming an assault force that will cover the operational military needs of our great nation. They will have global reach, begin able to be deployed by land, sea, air, or orbit in a brief period of time. And their primary objective will be to lead a wide range of different operations that support the policies and interests of the StateEmpire. The Shàng Jí Invincibles are another shining emblem of triumph for Yu Jing and the envy of all other powers in the Sphere. Citizen! Be proud of their achievements, because they are the fruit of the efforts of the brilliant society that you belong to! [...]

6TH AIRBORNE RANGERS REGIMENT
“Duicmus a caelo” (We lead the way from the sky). Motto of the Airborne Rangers, Latinized version of the Ranger motto and adapted to their operative profile.
“Rendezvous with doom”. Official motto of 6th Airborne Regiment.
Sixth Airborne Rangers is the airborne light infantry regiment of the USARF. Of all the USAriadnan units, it is probably the one most similar in operative profile to the U.S. Rangers, a light aircraft unit, with a capacity for rapid deployment and execution of special operations.
The Airborne Rangers specialize in lightning attacks on enemy positions, appearing from where they are least expected. This is why they have access to the helicopters and airplanes of the Light Air Cavalry. The Rangers arrive at the battlefield flying low, grazing the tips of the trees, wearing predatory smiles and blaring loud music through their headphones, anxious to jump into combat. These boys have been trained specifically to conduct Direct Action operations of short duration and high intensity, missions with immediate direct contact characterized by firefights and close combat. The task assigned to the Airborne Rangers is always crucial to the success of the operation, as crucial as it is dangerous, which is the reason why they say in the USARF that this unit is a real hero-making machine.
CYBERGHOSTS, QUANTRONIC INTERVENTION UNIT
The datasphere is an even vaster and more dangerous place than the Human Sphere itself, and Bureau Aegis has a responsibility to police it to protect its users and uphold law and order in cyberspace as well. For this, they have a Quantronic Crime Division with a large and well-equipped crew. However, most of its members are couch agents who work in their connected pods on routine surveillance and policing operations. This isn’t the case with the Quantronic Intervention Unit.
The fact that they do Cube backups every six months doesn’t change anything, since they know that were they to die in the line of duty they would lose those few months forever, and they cross their fingers hoping that the backup copy has no errors. But this never stops them, because they know their work is important. Their attitude in action has earned them their reputation, as well as their name. The Cyberghosts keep going where others fall. They don’t even blink in the face of danger. They do their jobs, even when that means paying the highest price, because they know that—given their operational profile—if they fail to accomplish their mission, if they don’t stop their enemies, the entire Human Sphere would suffer. Just like SWAT in the real world, if they are sent into action it means that the situation is critical. They know the lives of many innocent people depend on them, and therefore they’ll always step up. Because they are the Quantronic Intervention Unit, they are the Cyberghosts, the lethal wraiths of the datasphere.
