Erranigos Vindicta Cohort

"The might of the Adeptus Mechanicus is upon you, surrender yourselves for questioning and summery execution."

- Erranigos Vindicta Cohort standard pre-battle announcement.

Comprised of the scattered remains of various cohorts most of which being cohorts which had divided against each-other in the face of the Mechanicus civil war, and Fabricator-General Kelbor-Hal's joining Horus against the Emperor. The Erranigos Vindicata Cohort was swiftly brought together with the intention of the Adeptus Mechanicus being to have the Cohort swear to join the loyalist forces in tracking down and slaughtering the remaining traitors. However, the Cohort was forged and battle ready nearly too late to join the loyalists in their pursuit of the heretics and the vows of the Myrmidons were changed to the elimination of any and all heretical forces.

Command Structure
The Erranigos Vindicta Cohort follows the same standard command structure of the Adeptus Mechanicus Legio Cybernetica. Archmagos Bellona Gabrielos currently commands the Cohort and is the fourth commander the Cohort has had since it's formation, and as such is the current highest authority within the Cohort. Immediately following the commands of Archmagos Bellona is a extensive cult of the seventy-six Magos Dominus of the Cohort, each of whom hold authority over one of the cohort's maniples directing the war-machines and the Adepts protecting and maintaining the automata. Under the Magos Dominus of the Cohort are the various skitarii, elctro-priests, and engineseers, these specially selected servants of the Adeptus Mechanicus are dedicated to the maintenance and protection of the Automata of their maniples. It is a recorded fact that the Erranigos Vindicta makes use of fourteen percent  more Skitarii forces on the field of battle in support of their Automata than the median of the Legio Cybernetica.

Cataphract Automata
Perhaps one of the most commonly employed models of Cybernetica Automata, The Cataphract Automata serves as the baseline of the Erranigos Automata forces. Within the Erranigo Vindicta Cohort the Cataphract serve primarily with two main combat model types with occasional combat variations deployed as combat situations require. Both models regardless of the maniple composition or number serve as pseudo-squad leaders to forces of Skitarii from the regiment who have been assigned to protect the sacred war Automata by the Erranigos Vindicta Cohort.

Squads of Cataphract Automata typically operate within maniples comprised entirely of Automata of the same classification. these Squads are typically supported by small platoons of Skitarii. When not in squads of their own, pairs of Cataphracts will act as screening forces for the larger and more heavily armed Automata of the Erranigos Vidicta. The screening Cataphracts of the Erranigos Vindicta fighting along side the larger War-Automata of the Cohort are typically given specificly selected gear suited to pinning and eliminating the threats to the larger Automata. Typically these Cataphracts fight along side Conquistador Automata of the Cohort.
