## Origin

The 94th Solar Army was first founded during the 7th year of the era of HAV'OC, not long after the victory of the Chosen Crusade. High General. Spectre, a former Solar Commander during the era of Blaxxhir. Was given full command of the newly mustered 94th Solar army and ordered to conduct successful campaigns as soon as possible. Banner-less, new and without any majorly successful conquests the 94th Solar Army didn't rise to fame until the 19th Year of the Era of HAV'OC. Until then they had been a conventional Solar Army, conducting minor campaigns in the 3rd octant of the universe. Serving without much notice.

## Rise to fame

At the beginning the 94th Solar was like any ordinary army, there was simply nothing special about it. The most interesting aspect of the 94th was their commander, High General Spectre. Spectre was a unique commander who had written a hefty archive of doctrine involving specialized light infantry operations and tactics on a divisional scale. The doctrine labeled "Spectre's Theory" was created to challenge the traditional way of battle which was a war of overwhelming firepower and numbers. Instead it delved into the realm of winning large scale battles through smaller more specialized combat teams performing surgical strikes on critical targets. Initially the documents involving Spectre's theory were nothing more then a shunned concept however this had changed during the **campaign of kilrilia.**

### **The Campaign of Kilrilia**

During the 19th year of the era of HAV'OC, the 94th Solar army was tasked with the invasion of Planet Kilrilia. Kilrilia was a large planet belonging to the uibos XII system, the only planet of its system that was worth invading. The planet it self was a geographic disaster, the entire planet was nothing but an abyss of vegetation, jungles which had Millenniums of undisturbed growth. The 94th were ordered to invade the planet of Kilrilia, destroy all life but search the planet for artifacts and relics that may hold valuable information or/and technology; essentially it was a needle in a jungle. The task of invading and conquering such a planet was almost ludicrous for the dense jungle bio dome made it almost impossible to efficiently carryout operations under the traditional doctrine of warfare. If the planet wasn't enough of a challenge, the inhabitants of Kilrilia were incredibly dangerous in their own nature. The campaign of Kilrilia was seen as impossible by those outside of the 94th however Spectre had taken the high risk opportunity in his stride as a proving ground for his hand written doctrine.

Spectre deployed his forces not as one large overwhelming force, but as a collection of millions of specialized force recon units. Troopers were forced to drop their high profile offensive tactics and instead take up strategies involving patience, persistence and a key eye for detail. Each group of these squadrons were tasked with selected area of landscape to cover, to leave no stone unturned, wipe the area of all its life and artifacts. by the second year of the Campaign, High General Spectre had deployed 88 Million Squadrons onto the planet of Kilrilia, his entire Solar army was essentially searching the planet on foot. Over the 7 years that the lengthy campaign had underwent, The troopers of the 94th Solar army, had adapted to their environment. Their programming had begun self correct in order to cater for the dramatic change in environment for such a long period of time. The troopers as a whole begun to change from standard front line infantry to specialized headhunters. As each the years passed the 94th Solar army became more and more efficient until the campaign had an end in sight. Over the years High General Spectre was urged many times by his administration to call off the campaign as it had become timely and very costly however he persisted, Spectre was stubborn and was not willing to back down from something he had put so many resources into already.

By the 7th year of the Campaign of Kilrilia, the impossible had been achieved. The planet of Kilrilia had been completely conquered. All life was exterminated and many valuable relics were excavated; The horrendously dense jungles of Kilrilia had been navigated by hand. This victory was enormous and was soon spread although out the empire as many stories told by those who fought on Kilrilia begun to be told.

### **After the victory on Kilrilia**

Those who survived, returned completely unrecognizable from when they first embarked on their mission 7 years ago. They had returned as elites in their very own self-made field of expertise, battle-hardened warriors who's programming had adapted to a unique state unseen yet in the era of HAV'OC. The 94th Solar army quickly become famous for its long unorthodox victory as well as its exceptional success using a collection of strategies that had not yet been displayed on scale as large as an entire solar army.

Over the next year High General Spectre had underwent many hearings in order to get his doctrine 'Spectre's theory' commissioned as Official talon approved doctrine. After a long period of debating, Spectre's theory was accepted and stamped as official Talon doctrine, to be used in any future operations on a solar level. It was then at this time that the 94th Solar army had become officially lived up to their new reputation as renowned jungle troopers. The 94th changed their Solar banner to feature the 'Crown of Kilrilia' priding themselves on the campaign they had risked everything for.

## The crown of Kilrilia

Featured on all banners of the 94th Solar army the crown of Kilrilia represents the victory that had granted the 94th's identity. The crown of Kilrilia was the nickname of a extraordinarily large Kilrilian beast that served as the alpha of most of the planet's ecosystem; a beast that had took many years to hunt down and kill. Not long after the Kilrilian beast was slayed, the campaign had ended in victory. This sparked many conspiracies connecting the death of the alpha to the sudden victory, was backed up by naval officers who reported signs of a sudden decline in the planet's ecosystem. Never the less, High General spectre commissioned the armies new banner as the severed head of the once mighty alpha... The crown of Kilrilia.

## The 94th Solar army today

Dropping into unforgivable jungles in the form of millions of small squads. Raiding tombs, navigating dense landscape and hunting down all non-talon life.

Instead their ranks compose of elite Pathfinder troopers. an rarity among most standard solar armies, These Pathfinders hold unique skills and abilities which cater for their jungle environments completely utilizing Spectre's theory.
