History
"Are you ready,

Soldier brothers,

For when that day comes?

Don't worry homeland,

Don't worry loved ones,

In order to win I will bravely march on."

-"As the War Approaches" being broadcast on Loudspeakers. The song is popular with both sides but cheers Elswords while distracting enemies

While most Noble Officers operate on the ground, to truly inspire the common soldier a special mount was made for any Officer willing to use it. A simple tracked platform was picked to carry the Officer, in full view of the battlefield, to inspire pride in their comrades and fear in foes. Behind them is a group of screens and speakers, constantly rotating so everyone can see and hear the constant propaganda films, speeches, and heroic music.

And can inspire fire in a (Elsword) soldier's heart like nothing else. Like its namesake, the Alkonost Propaganda Tank, a former Voshkod tank design they stole when they split, makes Red Guards forget all the hardships they have to face, and inspires them to fight all the more, ignoring whatever the enemy throws at them. At the same time, the whole display frightens and disturbs even battle-hardened soldiers on the enemy side; it's almost as if they were fighting the entire Empire at once.

The tank was dubbed the Alkonost after the legendary bird of Garlean mythology, whose voice was so sweet as to cause the listener to forget everything. The Voshkod named something after a Garlean entity for no good reason Allied intelligence can figure out. When a POW was asked why the Voshkod named something after another country's mythological creation, the POW rhetorically asked why the Allies would name their main fighter plane after another culture's less-than-masculine poet deity. And when the Elsword had split they kept the name, reasons for why still remains a mystery.

Incidentally, unit morale between battles has risen sharply since the introduction of these vehicles. The Officers, strict and heartless as they're described to be, are allowed to take with their records of famous Elsword folk songs or other music besides the anthems and propaganda. These include famous music like (insert) or the (insert), which are often played before an attack.
