Soviet Bloc

With hated capitalist foes on all sides, the Soviet Bloc wages war with a new ferocity. Although their access to the Rifts has been limited, Soviet scientists have made great use of what Rift-tech they have been able to capture or steal, to ensure their forces are well equipped for the long war.

Soviet Rift-tech has developed along a number of lethal avenues, including Zvukovoy sonic weaponry which weaponises the power of harmonic resonance to literally shake targets apart, and the dreaded Moroz Gul and Ursus genetically modified shock troops. These go to war alongside walkers and powered armour designs stolen from the enemies of the Soviet Bloc, adapted to serve the cause of Communism. Soviet forces tend towards up-close brutality, but are flexible enough to tackle any mission.
