Other Infantry
Myrmidon Mark 2=



The Myrmidon Mark 2 combat robots are the cheap and expendable cannon fodder used by the Tyranny in order to rush enemies. Although they stand at 3 meters tall, they are quite inaccurate and rather fragile. They armed with plasma weapons which are very easy to produce within the Tyranny and they are always grouped in very tight formations, shoulder to shoulder, so that the volume of fire compensates for their inaccuracy. Although they are very weak, the sheer numbers that they are deployed in means that they are actually quite effective in combat. The fact that they can also be easily produced on the battlefield by some other Tyranny vehicles mean that they form something of an unending legion that can rarely be stopped due to the massive amounts of them. Although only armed with the most rudimentary of the weapons of the Tyranny, the Myrmidons are an almost infinite flood of metal that will overcome all but the most dedicated and implacable of enemy positions in a metal wave.

Arcanus=



Arcanii are slightly more elite than the Myrmidons, although they are are of the same height, they are predominantly biological, having been synthetically engineered that way by the Dominatus, they have more versatility than the Myrmidons. Their laser repeaters give them the ability to engage both targets in the ground and in the air more accurately. Furthermore, their tactics do not revolve around solely moving in a concentrated formation where they are easy to pick off but instead being more tactically diverse in their actions. However, the tradeoff is that they are rarer than the Myrmidons and are not much more durable or powerful. Nevertheless, Arcanii represent a rather potent force on the battlefield, and are a clear step up from the mindless swarms of Myrmidon Mark 2 combat robots.

Chiliarch=



The Chiliarchs are the most powerful of the expendable infantry of the Tyranny and also the rarest, even rarer than the Arcanii. They take the form of imposing 4 meter tall cyborgs, equipped with gatling railguns as well as rather heavy armor plating. This allows them to endure rather heavy punishment as well as dish out tremendous amounts of damage. However, they are rather slow and ponderous in comparison to other types of infantry, being slow but purposeful in their advanced. They use varied tactics when on the offensive and defensive, often times flanking and ambushing their enemy in weak points. They seem to attack in a rather well coordinated manner, and like the Arcanii before them are somewhat capable of providing anti air against comparatively slow moving aircraft and enemy aerial units. They often serve as the Tyranny's shocktroopers against well fortified positions and are often seen spearheading Tyranny assaults.
