New Model Army Heljaegers

The Heljaegers are the best of the Avernite military, selected from the top half a per cent of the Avernite Helguard. Equipped to a standard that only the Fire Giants and Astartes can dream of matching and made up of possibly the greatest human soldiers in the galaxy the Heljaegers are a force with few peers, even in the Long Night. The Heljaegers compete with the Psyker Hunters of the Avernite Security Forces for recruits, greatly limiting their numbers.

The Heljaegers are specialists, intended to fill a single narrow and dangerous, role on the battlefield.

## Equipment

The Heljaegers equipped with whatever is best for their task, barring only the most costly of wargear. This includes an extensive array of runes with all Heljaegers having warded runed armour and vehicles made from microalloys further boosted by enhanced Runes of Reinforcement for both their defence and mobility. Their weapons are enhanced by runic combinations, with excess weapons available allowing them to adjust their loadout with the foe. Finally, a similar array of runes is applied to all of their vehicles. Additionally they are provided with enchanted amulets and talismans by the Searing Sea Sirens.

The Nyenye created a set of Alkahestrial Augments for your Jaegers, making a set for each of the five types including Witch and Psyker Hunters. All of the augmentations provide a good level of base physical boosts that when combined with the Jaegers existing cybernetic augmentations should put them physically on par with Astartes.

## Psyjaegers

The Heljaegers have a large compliment of permanently attached Battle Psykers integrated into their formations, known as the Psyjaegers. A full tenth of the Heljeagers numbers are made up of Elite Battle Psykers, with another half a percent being made up of Master Battle Psykers and a Grandmaster being assigned to each Regiment. While the Psyjaegers are made up entirely of minor Psykers, the combination of their mastery of their powers and their coordination with the rest of the Heljaegers has proven to be a major force multiplier.

## Lifeguard Regiment

### Makeup

300 Elites, 150 Destroyers, 150 Recon, 150 Raider, 150 Spec Crisis, 50 Spec Broadside, 50 Spec Stealth, 75 Land Raiders

### Size

750 Infantry, 250 Battlesuits, 75 Heavy Tanks

There are three separate types of Heljaegers, the Lifeguard, the Jomsjaeger and the Riskjaeger.

### Lifeguard

The Lifeguard are dedicated bodyguards, trained to protect their principle from all that threatens them, both overtly and covertly. While mostly made up of infantry and battlesuits they are also supplied with a collection of Land Raiders to transport themselves and their principles in safety. Among the Heljaegers the Lifeguard will be selected for loyalty over all else, and are expected to protect their principle to the last and keep secrets that could doom entire sectors.

The Lifeguard Augments are infused with the story of the Guardian, those who give their lives to protect their leaders. This should empower them as in their duties of protecting others, and work against all forces that would make them fail. These augments are additionally designed to boost the senses and reaction speed of the Lifeguard, allowing them to detect threats to their principle and quickly react to them.

## Jomsjaeger Regiment

### Makeup

500 raiders, 50 Fellswords, 72 Northern Sentinels, 18 Pheonix Gunships

### Size

500 Infantry, 122 Superheavies, 18 Heavy Gunships

### Jomsjaeger

The Jomsjaeger are Titan hunters, trained and equipped to bring down the Gods of War in all of their might. Mostly they rely on their own superheavies such as Fellsword Varients, Northen Sentinels, and Phoenix Gunships. Some Jomsjaeger, however, don Raider Advanced Power Armour and attempt to slay their targets with boarding actions and planted explosives.  Among the Heljaegers the Jomsjaeger are selected for courage over all else, as is to be expected for those who must fight the most powerful forces on the battlefield.

The Jomsjaeger Augments are infused with the story of the Giantkiller, those who hunt giant monsters. This should aid them as they engage foes far larger than them, pushing them to feats beyond what should be possible. Additionally, they are designed to boost their mental processing speed and spatial awareness, aiding them in piloting the heavy vehicles that they tend to use in battle.

## Rikjaeger

### Makeup

500 Elites, 100 Destroyers, 50 Recon, 100 Raider, 150 Spec Crisis, 50 Spec Broadside, 50 Spec Stealth, 100 Jetbikes, 25 Diamondbacks, 6 Harvesters

### Size

750 Infantry, 250 Battlesuits, 6 Heavy Tanks, 25 Tanks, 100 Bikes

### Rikjaeger

The Rikjaeger are Astartes Killers, trained and equipped to hunt down and kill the most elite forces that the enemy can bring to bear. As such need to be both mobile and deadly as their foes . The Rikjaeger are a mix of elite infantry, Crisis Battlesuits and agile vehicles armed with a mix of neutron, plasma and grav. They have far fewer warbeasts then most formations, due to the inability of most warbeasts to both be mobile enough to catch their targets and dangerous enough to threaten them. Among the Heljaegers the Rikjaeger are selected for combat skill over all else, being tasked to hunt the greatest warriors in the galaxy.

The Rikjaeger Augments are infused with the story of the Assasin, those who slay kings and heroes. This should make it easier for the Rikjaeger to engage and slay the Astartes and other heroes that they hunt, as fate itself twists to guide them. Additionally, they are designed to boost their strength to allow them to trade blows with the targets better.

## Unsichtbarjeager

### Size

400 Aircraft

The Unsichtbarjeager, or the Bastardjeagers as they are less officerly known, are the ultimate stealth raiders, able to hit all but the most fortified of targets no matter how far behind enemy lines they are, cause major damage and escape without pursuit. The Unsichtbarjeager consist entirely of Sky Dragon Riders, and are armed with a wide range of weaponry and demolition gear, with the Riders themselves tending to wear Recon Armor. Among the Heljaegers the Sky Dragon Riders are selected for their ability to work with beasts' among all else, and recruit primarily from the Beastmaster Divisions. The Sky Dragon Riders tend to avoid major battles, barring the occasionally flanking attack, due to their one vulnerability being truly massed AA which can fill the skies with enough shots to down them. Instead they conduct raids, wiping out smaller military formations and supply convoys and occasionally devastating sections of even well fortified encampments.

Currently Unsichtbarjeager are using the Psyker Hunter Augments, though there is talk among the Nynye of making a set of augments specifically for them.
