- Combat Function: The ”Sandstorm“ Division is meant to Be the Spearhead to a large scale assault, destroying enemy positions and causing enemy Troops to rout before the bulk of the ZU army arrives to put an end to them. They move from theater to theater, causing enemy lines to break wherever they operate, working together with whatever units they need to cooperate with.
- As mentioned, The “Sandstorm” acts as an overwhelming spearhead, pummeling enemy forces until they are forced out of their entrenched positions and then runs them over. As such, it needs Great firepower to achieve this, and courtesy of the ZUs resources, it has it.
- The ”Sandstorm“ is considered one of the most respected divisions amongst the ZUs armed forces, and its role as the line penetrator has placed it into the limelight quite often. As such, many recruits aim to join the 103rd, which allows it to pick and choose the best to join it in its battles.
- Sandstorm focuses on aggression and overwhelming firepower, and makes use of comparatively advanced weaponry. As a result, its soldiers on average require comparatively more training and thus need more time to replace. Also, rusing training will lead to a decreased aptitude with weapons, as rookies fumble with equipment and make costly mistakes.
- The Sandstorm also considers its lightning -fast speed to be a great asset, and as such does everything to maximise it. However, this also means that it carries around minim supplies, and cutting off supply lines and isolating the 103rd will lead to an immediate decrease in its strength.
The 103rd is a comparatively new Division, at least when compared to divisions belonging to othe rfactions that have had long, rich histories, but it reflects the Unions attitude of quality over sheer quantity. With enough investments in this single division to out entire armies to shame, the 103rd is the ZUs response to all situations where progress is slow. It breaks stalemate lines, ravages defensive constructs and takes down defensive fortifications as if they were a cakewalk. Static Defences offer about as much resistance as wet tissue, thus proving the effectiveness of this division.
