Lancer Regiment
Imperial Cossacks are the names given to the mechanized chassis forces that are key to providing aggressive firepower to Imperial frontlines. The Thondor call these valkyries, and Union calls them Lancer Regiments. They ride in giant mechanized units, usually as the tip of the spear in large scale engagements. The 46th Imperial Cossacks Regiment is an elite Lancer Regiment under the control of the Empire.
