Death Squad Shredders

The Asylum cities were a haven for the Asylumists to arm themselves and proceed with their bloody murder. Stockpiled with weapons, equipment and vehicles, the Horde quickly amassed a formidable armory and turned it against the Coalition during the Asylum War. As time passed, many would fall to the mighty canons of the Tin-Men, Gritguard and Drones and even more to their own kin. Alone the Horde would not hold back the reprisals of their victims but in truth the Horde were the least of the other races problems as the Blood Engines churned out their machinations from the industrial sectors within the cities.

First came the Death squads, captured Horde cybernetically augmented into obedient soldiers, then came everything else. The Death Squads acted as the private army, bodyguards and general go-getters to the Blood Engines and they were outfitted for each sinister task. The Shredders, whose name is, unfortunately, the outcome of their weapons ability, were found amongst those who had been given the duty of keeping Horde out of nearby ruins so they could be explored and raided. Many Asylumists have been felled by this gruesome weapon and many other races shall as well.

The Shredder is a furious weapon that sends high energy particle beams slamming into enemies at such speeds they can literally shred them apart into piles of mucus and metal. Their high firing speed has its drawbacks however as it renders stealth ineffective and the Death squad must remain stationary to fire. Speed is not this units preferred boon. Instead, it lies in wait within darkened ruins, watching for movement, ready to open up onto anything in range and shred.
