The Slavonik Imperiya /Sla-vonik Im-peer-iya/ (Monolyth Slavonik Script: Монолитная Империя) is a faction from the Monolith Realm and is considered to be the largest and most powerful of the known factions of the realm. When the realm was created, nefarious powers modelled this new Empire directley after the fallen Galacian Imperiya

Background

The Origins of the Imperiya are somewhat clouded, it is a very old entity within the Realm, but it's exact beginning cannot be pinpointed. All that is known is that it arose sometime after the fall of the First Alliance. Very early on the organization began to clash with the Stroiteliga, another group that had it's own ambitions for ruling the realm. Conflicts across the realm often always had Imperial and League interests at play in the background, regardless of their direct participation.

Ethos & Objectives

The Imperiya is an age old establishment. Swearing fealty to the Emperor of the Realm, and Promoting the ideals of law and order throughout to build a prosperous and glorious civilization. Out of all the players of the realm they are arguably the most concerned with development and expansion. Actively trying to rebuild civilization. Although in the past the Imperiya has also acted with ill intent under the service of some particularly bad emperors

Imperiya seeks to fight the forces of disorder and mayhem. But at the same time, opposes any group that may challenge it's position. Fighting against savages, gangs, and other armies for sport. Their engineers constantly create war machines and weapons out of raw materials scavenged from the wastes, and raiding towns and city worlds that do not submit to their authority.

Imperiya is also notorious for employing locals from towns and villages, and training them into auxiliary security forces. All with the intention of spreading "Order" throughout the world with as many allies as possible.

The Imperiya is known to pay artists vast sums of credits in order to do up fancy propaganda peices in an attempt to impress and awe minifigs into joining their ranks. Artwork by Ninja_Bait

Leadership

The Imperiya had traditionally followed the rule of a single "Emperor", for which the Imperiya got it's name. However for reasons unknown, the Imperiya has been without a central leader for a very long time. The very symbolic throne that was sat upon by the emperor, is not only vacant, but outright dissapeared. Yet the mission of the entity remains unchanged. And the Imperiya continues to function without a traditional figurehead. In their absence It is generally accepted that an exceptional Commander leads the Imperiya.

The Imperial Throne is not a hereditary right, in fact the laws regarding selection of a ruler are so lax that practically anyone can seize control of the Empire simply by taking control of the Throne. While internal plots for Officers and Commanders to seize the Throne are quite rare, Rulers are frequentley assassinated or otherwise removed from power. Only those who are strong and cunning enough to protect their own hides stay on the Throne for long.

In fact, the entire seat of Power is so unstable, that the Military often turns a blind eye to a change in Leadership. The Military takes its orders from its Generals and Commanders. Said Generals simply pay lip service to the Ruler. The military does not take kindly to insurrection within it's own ranks however. So Ironically, The position of High Command is safer and more powerful than the very Throne they swear to serve.

In all aspects, the role of the Emperor is purely a ceremonial, and largely unremarkable one. It wasn't until the rediscovery of the Throne, and it's new altered powers that it began to serve any real importance to the Realm. At the end of the Secret War, the Throne and the Emperor began to fill a real purpose within the Realm. For when the Monolith Crystal had actually seized the Throne, and when it was destroyed once and for all, part of it fused with the Throne, enchanting it with the ability to make limited but signifigant changes to the Realm itself. After this event, The Throne would become the ultimate prize for any and all minifigs of the realm. However gaining it's power would elevate a minifig far beyond the worries of politics and war. They controlled godlike abilities, and the responsibility of the Emperor would be to protect the existence of the realm, For ALL those who lived in it. and the Imperiya would swear to serve the Throne, for better or for worse

After this event, despite any controller of the Throne's obligation to protecting the realm at large, Minifigs killing each other was not considered to be a threat to the realm's existence.. So Really, it was like nothing had ever changed, The Imperiya would continue claim it was rebuilding civilization, and fighting various groups. Just like it had been during the period without the Throne.

Character	Picture	Rank	Notes	Status
Sergachev		High Commander	First mentioned in Chapter 3 but not properly encountered until later, The Military leader and acting ruler of the combined Imperiya forces. His origins are unknown. Beileved to have arisen during the last period in which the Realm had a singular Emperor who had appointed him. At the climax of Ragnablok, and the events at the Nexus between Kast, Shulga and the Monolith. Sergachev was duped by Shulga's Avatar into launching a manhunt across the realm for Kast.	Alive
Varon		Commander	Second in Command of the Imperiya Military, Varone's position officially, was to act as a successor to Sergachev in the event of an untimely demise. And generally to serve both as an extension to the Supreme Commmand's authority, as well as a check and balance to his power in the event of Misuse. Varon Is rarely seen or mentioned. Whatever he is doing at any given time is usually behind the scenes. His Largest responsibility within the Imperiya is the growth and training of new troops.	Alive
Shulga *Avatar*		Seer Avatar *Secret*	The individual known to the vast majority of the Realm as "Shulga" is in fact an avatar for the Corrupted Ruler of the former Galacian Imperiya of the Nehellenium Galaxy years prior. The Real Shulga having been combined with the power of the Monolith Crystal, was able to create an entire Dimension to shape worlds in, but is not able to participate in them directley. He created an avatar in his own image to that he could attempt to shape the civilization of free beings as he saw fit. (It is an important distinction that the overwhelming majority of the realm's population, do not actually recognize Shulga for who he was. Only those who survived the Monolith Event, and Migrated to the realm after the fact carry this knowledge) Shulga's avatar fills a role in the Imperiya as their "Seer". The Paranormal and Psionik nature of the realm dictates that an organization as large and important as they are, must have at least some kind of expert in the Field. Shulga's Avatar often gives the rest of the Imperiya advice and intelligence for them to act on, in reality, this is Shulga's main method of influencing the lives of Minifigs at large, by indirectley controlling the vast Imperiya.	"Alive" - Not a sentient being, but a Psionikally controlled body
Tachenko		Former General, Now leader of Imperiya Novaya	First Introduced long before the Monolith Event. Tachenko is a Character that has been apart of the saga for much longer than many. He was a General within the Galacian Imperiya, formerly a savage primitive warrior kept around as a Lackey by Alex Shulga. He was eventually made a General and was chosen to lead attacks against the Imperial Magikstrate and M-Throne Empire during the Arhus Crisis. Largely blamed for the disaster that destroyed the planet. Galacian forces defeated the M-Throne and Magikstrate defenders on the planet, but their fleets were destroyed in the following space Battle. it was unknown what became of Tachenko after that. Unbeknowst to almost everyone, After the Monolith Event which destroyed the old Imperiya, and the entire sector with it. Tachenko was contacted by agents of the reborn Shulga, and he and a small number of Loyalists migrated to the Monolith Realm to serve their old master. And after events turned sour, he fled the Realm back to the Gold Sector to start his own fledgling Empire The Imperiya General known as Tachenko in the new realm, is still the same rabid cur that he was in his old life. having developed a reputation for death and destruction not unlike that of a Black Legion warlord. The Stroiteliga Bratva considers Tachenko to be one of their most valuable targets. Drawing their attention after wrecking a lot of plate worlds, and even capturing and imprisoning their original leader, Lenskiy.	Alive, Fled the Realm at the conclusion of Secret War
Lana		General Lead Engineer	Lana is one of the most important leaders of the Imperiya, her primary responsibility being the lead Designer and engineer of the military tek used by the Armiya and some of the Kosmoflota	Alive
The Blues		Officer Clique	The Blues are a "faction" of Officers within the command structure that are generally disloyal to Sergachev's circle, they seek to take over the Imperiya for themselves, and boot out many of their rival officers and Generals. Their insubordination and scheming is generally kept under the covers. Otherwise they'd have been fired and executed long ago	Alive

Military

The Imperiya's military is bar none, the strongest individual power of the realm. This comes from a vast arsenal of specialists, elite troops and a fully equipped motor pool. Their greatest strength is the ability to exploit others weaknesses.. with force. Deploying forces the enemy has no hard counter for... and in overwhelming numbers. The land forces of the Imperiya are larger than the next 5 competitors combined..

Imperiya's military has two main divisions.

• Armiya - The Ground Forces, the conventional Army using heavy vehicles and massed ground assaults against the enemies of their agenda
• Kosmoflota - The Fleet Forces, Using Medium to large sized vehicles known as fleet ships to bombard ground targets, transport Marines over long distances over the plates, and do battle with other fleets in the void above the plates, The realm's equivalent to space

Armiya

The Imperiya Armiya is experienced, sophisticated, and uptight. Deploying large units of Regular, Veteran, Elite and Special Forces soldiers. And lots of heavy Armor and transports.

Refer to the Battleplate Statistics chart for an explanation on the terms that will be referred to in the notes

Reform of R2020

The Imperiya Armiya has always been a force with a convoluted system of bureaucracy and pecking orders. Previously, the army had no fewer than FIVE "tiers" of Infantry unites. Greatly reducing the effectiveness and ease of deployment of forces.

• Prior to The 2020 reforms, the Armiya had the following service tiers within it's infantry formations.
  • Irregulars
  • Regulars
  • Veteran Shock
  • Elite Shock
  • Special Forces

Starting in R2020. The System was downgraded to "Three and a half" tiers. Irregular units were more or less released from official service. This allowed subfactions like the Sindrian Diktat and Kurosai Buntai to come about. This constituted the "half"

• The remaining tiers were divided into three categories
  • Armiya Regulars, Continued to be the rank and file grunts of the Army with no real changes aside from some minor differences in commissioned officer uniforms. The VDV Dropship troops were demoted from Elite Status all the way down to Regular, filling the role of light infantry scouts.
  • Amiya Shock Corps, The Shock Troopers, or "Shturmovik" once had both veteran, and elite troop types. For the most part they have been merged together. New uniforms were issued largely based on the Elite armor, Squad leaders, Shield troops and Heavy weapons squads were given completely new looks, and for the most part the corps became more diverse, inheriting the specialists of both tiers. As a result though. The experience level of the Corps as a whole degraded, and to pay for the costs of upgrading a quarter of the Army to better equipment, the Corps had to decomission it's advanced service rifle and revert back to the standard issue pulse rifle. The Advanced weapons were sold to the Syndikat to pay for the costs.
  • Armiya Spetsnaz, the Special forces for the most part remained the same albeit with a name change. Some individuals from the Elite Shock forces were promoted into Spetsnaz units, the VDV unit however, was relegated to a Regular unit. Scouts riding in dropships wasn't deemed special enough to be worthy of the title.

Regular Troops

The Malka's "Molotok" gun is a force of nature, any minifig caught in it's blast will not escape without grevious wounds at best, and completely vaporized at worst. Capable of flattening structures and tossing small and medium vehicles like a ragdoll. The Malka is only used when the Imperiya is looking to burn someone hard. It's rangefinder allows it to fire on an arc at targets not directley in it's line of sight, at a range up to 40" away, a truly long distance. The Malka cannot engage anything that is less than 10 inches away, meaning it has a minimum range. However it's explosives are so powerful that even a missed shot will likely hit it's target indirectley. Each skill roll below 5 will result in the round being 5" off target in a random direction .
