The Black Hammer Brigade is a heavy-armoured company made up of two combined-arms fire teams of infantry and armor, commissioned shortly after the [[Ninth Great Jedi War]] as part of the Arcona Armoured Division attached to the [[NSD Invicta]]. The main application of Black Hammer is to penetrate enemies’ defensive lines through use of forceful manoeuvring and heavy firepower. Due to the logistics required, Black Hammer mostly only encounters combat in important theatres of war and for the most part, spends her time in training for such an occurrence.

==Roster==
== History ==
The Black Hammer Brigade was designed to be a heavy fire support unit based with armoured vehicles. The brigades' tank's would push forward during a conflict and destroy any resistance before the ground units moved in to take care of the rest of the enemy forces.


Black Hammer Brigade is divided into two separate units made up of mixed infantry and armor; Sable Team and Gules Team. Each incorporates elements of light and heavy infantry as well as tank drivers and gunners.
Their primary purpose was to provide devastating ranged support for our ground troops against the enemies of the clan. This also led to the use of cover fire while the ground troops would rush our enemies from either flank during combat.


===Black Hammer Team 1 '''(Codename: Sable)'''===
The Black Hammer Brigade has been decommissioned and has henceforth ceased to be a unit. This was due to Arcona losing it's Clan status at the time.  It's legacy shall live on thoughg in the heart and souls of its surviving members that now move on to better opportunities and new missions with their new teams and units.

The HUD also displays the wearer's biometrics as well as the ammunition left in their primary weapon. The rank of each soldier is displayed in the center of the chestplate and on the dome of helmet.

The main application of Black Hammer was to penetrate enemies’ defensive lines through use of forceful maneuvering and heavy firepower. Due to the logistics required, Black Hammer mostly only encountered combat in important theatres of war and for the most part, spent its time in training for such an occurrence.

Obelisk Assassin Juda Kodiak Erinos was chosen as the company’s Commanding Officer, sporting a Mandalorian heritage and having served Soulfire Strike Team for the most part of his Brotherhood career, the Templar was given the rank of Lieutenant and took the position with extreme confidence and immediately pushed the Brigade through intensive combat training, adamant in creating the unstoppable machine that is the Black Hammer.

Roles

The Black Hammer Brigades primary roles in combat was as an armoured vehicular unit. Their many vehichles would push forth during combat and obliterate the opposition which stood in their path. Few could come close to the brute force that this exemplary unit showed on the battlefield.

Armory

Ballistic Combat Armor

Ballistic Infantry Armor (BIA)

Based on the Rebel Special Forces armor, the Ballistic Infantry Armor was a rugged personal protection system, composed of an electromagnetic flight suit and duraplast plating which was mixed with a titanium weave to allow for maximum mobility and also added protection.

The armor is matte black, as was the helmet, with hints of the crimson flight suit in between the shoulder, chest, and leg armor as each plate was individually attached. A crimson visor sported a Heads-Up-Display with a team-wide comlink, targeting reticule, and various vision modes. The HUD also displayed the wearer's biometrics as well as the ammunition left in their primary weapon. The rank of each soldier was displayed in the center of the chestplate and on the dome of helmet.

Ballistic Infantry Armor

The Ballistic Heavy Armor incorporates many of the Infantry Armor's features, but to a lesser extent. The Ballistic Heavy Armor was more of a Mandalorian design; heavy iron encorporates extremely protective plating and a ‘T’ visor helmet with a targeting system wired in. However, while the biometrics display was still there, vision modes are cut out and only a Squad-wide comlink channel was found in the helmet. Adding to the Mando’ade flair was the intel-receiving antenna that, it says, able receive new intel about target buildings.

As such, it was suggested that the Heavy Infantry find and set up shop in an easily defensible place where they could unleash the most damage while staying safe as their heavy load out doesn’t allow for much mobility.

Ballistic Tank Armor (BTA)

The final Ballistic Combat Armor was the Tanker variant, designed for tank operators and gunners. This armor, except for the helmet, resembles nothing of the BIA and the BHA. The chest plate was light armor, black in color and resembling a vest with no sleeves and plenty of pockets to store various items that the crew may need.
