Kiber-Tvar of the 21st Century (Patreon)

To not overwhelm with the timeline again I have included a downloadable version of the document with it! It has been updated!

Tower Heads and the enemies autonomy and limits. It had largely been assumed that the Kiber-Tvar are a hive mind, one completely alien in construction and unintelligible to our understanding. We have pinpointed two possible “Locus” one currently more tangible then the other. First being that the “Factories” that emit the Digiphrenia signal that scrambles our technology and causes minor psychological effects on people exposed to it for prolonged periods, also serve the function of commanding the Kiber-Tvar masses. This is believed to be the case, as it has been observed that Kiber-Tvar brought to Groom Lake, enter a dormant state, in which they are functionally dead, furthermore, the Kiber-Tvar seem to slow down their pushes until Factories are constructed partially. The proposal that “Engels” also serve a similar role have been speculated, but we have not been able to observe this or test this in any way.

Tower Heads, unlike other Kiber-Tvar forces, the Tower heads have demonstrated a larger degree of autonomy and more troubling tactical awareness. They have been seen engaging in small squad tactics against fortified positions. The only thing that seems to severely hamper them is their “head”. The original head has been completely removed, furthermore the spinal cord has also been replaced, on examination only traces of brain matter are left within the metallic tower like head. Despite the armor, this has proven an excellent and easily targeted weakness.

On the nature of the enemy, expendable constructs, Anti-Armor Thralls and variants. The Kiber-Tvar have developed or better said repurposed both man and weapon in their creation of Anti-Armor Thralls. These things are made rather crudely, with the head removed in place of an Anti-tank weapon, such as AT4, M141, or Javelins. Other variants come in the form of taller quad setups, in which the head has completely been removed, alongside the arms, in place of it a massive optical organ is set within the chest and on each side it features two Anti-Armor weapons. Once fired the Thrall sheds the expended weapon(s), and charges at anything in front of it.

On the enemy and the fate of air crafts within their control, the Corpse Spider. First observed near the eastern German defensive line, these constructs appear to be created from Helicopters, they appear to be almost like a hermit crab settling into a shell. The construct appears to nearly always have 6 limbs, 4 of them are long and spider-like, the 2 front ones appear uncannily to be human, grotesquely elongated and much too large for a normal person. More troubling is their ability to fly, using the rotor blades present on the structure of the Helicopter.

An in-between of the Corpse Piler and the Corpse Crusher, having 8 total limbs, the front and back pair are heavily armored made of a similar material to that of the Corpse Crusher's pincers; the central 6 limbs end in numblike stumb. It features a seemingly underdeveloped fake head, much smaller than that of the aforementioned Piler and Crusher types. 

The biomunition used by the Piler and Stormer, are made of a hard outer shell that fragments upon impact, it contains an extremely acidic compound that is capable of melting armor and human bodies alike.

The Slaughtermensch, on the enemy and new types of constructs. It would appear that the Kiber-Tvar upon meeting unexpected resistance begin to formulate new types of constructs to deal with our over evolving strategies. This is an alarming development, but not one unexpected, we are in a technological arms race against them. We must continue our efforts to understand and surpass the Kiber-Tvar.

The Slaughtermensch, a 10 ft tall behemoth of a construct. It is the Kiber-Tvar's version of a super soldier, leading charges into our defensive lines and pulverizing anything that gets in the way of its two grinding maul-like arms. It is surprising fast for its size and can take a tremendous amount of punishment, it has also been reported to liquify and consume its victims on the spot, seemingly using them as some sort of biofuel.
