History
"Our "tank" will be invincible against the Brotherhood. They do not know of its existence..."

-Spoken by the first ADI tank commander, killed in the first moments of battle

Walkers and tracks utilized by the Order are among the most critical targets for the Brotherhood of Asmodia. Steel powerhouses sturdy to a fault, numerous shrines have been reduced to rubble by them with impunity, cult firearms barely able to scratch their armor. When these mechanical monsters appear, upper-ranking members are faced with two choices: whittle them down with sustained, constant fire, or hope that a commander is nearby for "diplomatic action". But two factors neutralize them; Talon Steel renders the first an exercise in futility, and crusaders are less averse to incinerating those deemed compromised by the Brotherhood.

In the midst of a Brotherhood offensive on Bosilegrad, inquisitor Patrik Sršen observed a squad of anti-tank partisans engaging an ADI counter-attack force. Nothing was out of the ordinary, the soldiers effortlessly shattering Predator and Goliath companies and swatting down Orcas out of the skies. Even the fact that their faces were obscured was overlooked; would any guerrilla in the field want to show their identities for the world to see? Sršen attributed their almost-unnatural prowess to the Partisans' own unrivaled discipline and was about to look away until an anomaly showed itself on the spot. A very innocuous-looking hand signal, to the trained eye, could be a potential command only known by the Cabals of War, and he was quick enough to catch a glimpse of it. Scrambling to alert the rest of his cell, Sršen was beaten by his fellow inquisitors, informing him of the catastrophic losses their Cleric Tracks experienced battling 'partisans' similar to those he just seen earlier.

But the Partisans are but one of the many guerrilla forces covertly assisted by the Brotherhood. Arming themselves with FGM-70s, a successor to the older rocket launchers from Pre-Kane era, cultists integrate themselves among insurgent groups worldwide to steer them to the Brotherhood cause. Sometimes, officers of various armies would be replaced by sympathizers, promoting eligible soldiers to 'independent' squads. These are designated Rocket Trooper, and in essence, they are intended to be used in large groups as support units providing anti-tank and anti-aircraft firepower for armies that lack them.

The hunters' attire reflects their role; the leather armor pulled over the uniforms is treated to be extremely resistant to flame and heat, making them ideal for surviving the weapons of the Order. Their freakish masks have built-in goggles to protect them against a backfire from their FGM-70s, and their hoods seal around their heads, pressurized by their toxin filter so as to allow them to use their weapons indoors without causing themselves harm.

To disable large swarms of foes, they even have canisters filled with highly-potent chloroform that can be placed in choke points. These booby traps are primed to go off once unwary units stray too close, immediately dazing its victims to be either picked off by friends or using the opportunity to retreat.
