- Strengths & Weaknesses |
[ Chosen of the Elite ] The Red Legion are compromised of the elite men and women who are selectively chosen as candidates for the outfit. As such their training goes beyond the already rigorous measures put in place by the standard Legion training regime to place them on a whole other level compared to other infantry, almost placing them to the same degree of special operations units. - [ Brutal Efficiency ] Execution of orders is done with swift and brutal efficiency. They are expected to carry out their orders and demolish targets and enemies swiftly ahead of the main attack force in order for victory to be achieved as soon and with as few casualties possible.
- [ Wrath from Above ] What makes the Red Legion stand out is their heavy usage of flight incorporated in their maneuvers, making them highly mobile and able to access the high ground to gain a strategic positional advantage over enemies. They are able to traverse a wide variety of terrain that would otherwise take a while to cross by standard infantry.
- [ Use the Force ] Though their equipment and gear give them a significant tactical edge over most standard infantries deployed across the Galaxy, they are just normal human beings in the end. They are completely helpless against a Force User's powers though they do take measures to overwhelm lightsaber wielders from multiple angles of fire.
- [ Predictability ] The Red Legion is typically assigned to high priority targets, making their typical center of attention fairly easy to distinguish. If the enemy is aware of their deployment and operational procedures, measures can be taken to counter their efforts and effort taken to enforce higher priority targets in an attempt to slow or combat the Red Legion's speed and efficiency.
- [ Aggression ] Due to their loyalty to Vexen and as a byproduct of the ritual they underwent to bond with Vexen, the Red Legion is more or less characterized by their aggressive behavior both on and off the field. They might be a part of the same army as you, but that doesn't necessarily mean that they'll play nice and operate well with other outfits or the bulk of the Imperial Legion. They more or less share a portion of Vexen's superiority complex in that regard and take great offense to anyone meaning to insult their General. They can be equated to religious zealots and their figures of worship.
[*]Historical Information |
The Red Legion are an elite unit within the ranks of the Sith Empire's Legion, compromised of individuals chosen to go beyond what the Legion has to offer and submit themselves into becoming a singular entity under the command of the Sith General Kor Vexen. The Red Legion are among the best that the Imperial Legion have to offer, and brought into the folds of General Vexen's ranks as their own unique outfit. They are battle-hardened veterans with an extensive grip on maneuver warfare and advanced battle theory. They analyze the situation, ascertain key objectives and execute with frightening efficiency. How they pursue their objectives varies, whether it is quietly deploying behind enemy lines to stealthily sabotage and disrupt them or be at the forefront of the vanguard and force an opening for the rest of the Legion to follow. They are exceptional soldiers, comparable to that of even elite SpecOps units in their training and execution.
A bulk of the Red Legion is compromised of those who wear the standard Dragoon armor set; they are the primary assault units deployed in any engagement and are the metaphorical tip of the spear. They are well-rounded in their capabilities and excellent for any situation thrown at them given the variety of equipment at their disposal. Treated as shocktroopers, Dragoons within the Red Legion are notorious for their expert handling of even the grimmest situations, punching a path through enemy formations and disrupting the enemy lines. Supporting them from the shadows or running their own operations are the covert Nightseers, units that provide reconnaissance and intel as well as functioning as stealth units that infiltrate and disrupt from within.
The Red Legion are deployed wherever Kor Vexen goes and have been reconditioned to only follow the orders of Vexen, though many follow his orders due to their immense respect for his knowledge of the battlefield. No other Sith Lord or Legion General may command them, or issue orders to them outside of making suggestions to Vexen directly. This is in part due to their bond with the General, being connected to him via the Force and Sith magic. They are not so easily swayed and hardened to persuasion from any other individual. They have their own modus operandi on the battlefield, though they are still under General Kor Vexen's direct command at any given moment and will pursue the best course of action to achieve their objective.
