The Ion Age IAF134 Psycoborgs of the Shia Khan Empire released!
�The Shia Khan Empire is, despite its ancient age and mighty power, not a sophisticated enemy on most battlefields. It is surmised that this and their apparent lack of interest in the value of life is down simply to having such endless resources at their disposal. Able to throw the lives of their soldiers away without care they can just send more to the flesh grinder of war. So the presence of robots in the ranks of the Legions was a surprise to Prydian commanders. A most unwelcome surprise as it became clear that the purpose of the robots was to inspire terror in and then exterminate Humans.
Dubbed Psycoborgs due to their appearance, some two to three times the height of a Human and man-like in construction. Their heads being like a skull and one arm mounting a support grade weapon they also could quite literally inspire terror. An unknown technology radiates from each robot and makes concentration and bravery exceptionally hard for regular troops and challenging even for Retained Knights. Psycoborgs operate either as single hunters in low intensity combat zones also aiding the conversion of Human Betrayers or as small groups typically of three robots within a platoon. Betrayers never act alongside these robots and Maligs rarely to do so. Legionaries and others seem unconcerned by their terror inspiring abilities. They are incapable of command and are given their programme by their commander in the field. These are the Psycoborg Robots and they are a fearsome foe!�
Taken from � IAB03 The Khanate Return Army Book

Psycoborgs typically act alone or in threes in larger battles. Behind the lines and in urban areas they stalk the darkness seeking out weakness. Small strike teams are sent out to find and destroy the robots before they can do more damage.
We thought it would be nice to show you a scaling line up of all the 15mm troop types currently in the Khanate army. From left to right they are: Malig, Legionary, Pioneer, Nox, Warlord and Psycoborg.
