The Shadow of Gomorrah Strikes!

Table of Contents

Talon Lead

The pilot known as “The Shadow of Gomorrah” is actually a Black Talon member who has gone native to assist the Liberati. The pilot, whose name and identity are classified, served as the team leader for Talon 1 on Caprice during their now famous operation. Rumors and conspiracy theorists often claim this individual to be the terrorist Ernesto Jaxon although opponents of this theory point to his presence on Terra Nova during Talon 1’s operation. When the Black Talons returned to Caprice, this pilot was detached as an advisor to the Liberati but soon went silent. They would eventually reappear, participating in raids and operations alongside Liberati cells. Contacts within the Liberati and CEF 5th Column have reported the name “The Shadow of Gomorrah” being used to identify this pilot. Black Talon command considers this agent to have “gone native” although they have aided Talon teams on Caprice without incident. The Shadow pilots their Dark Mamba which saw action on Caprice with Talon 1. It has since been heavily modified to use local weaponry and parts in an effort to stay serviceable. If they need something more specific, Talon teams are more than willing to provide those parts after receiving the Shadow’s assistance during operations.

The Shadow has been observed to sometimes fight alongside a pair of other machines. One is a heavily modified CEF battle frame and the other is a Caprician Mount. Investigations have revealed these to be piloted by Carlie Pinter and Helene Del Pulciano, two contacts Talon 1 made during their initial operation.

Introducing new and old gears is one of the great parts of the Extended Content project for Blitz. These gears may be used in the armies specified in their description. Sometimes, they’ll count as another gear for rules purposes, since the sublists were written without them in mind. In these cases, they interact with special rules as if they were a gear of the type mentioned. For Example, The Shadow of Gomorra counts as a Dark Mamba for Rules Purposes, and is affected by any rules which affect the Dark Mamba.

These rules are intended to represent the character at a specific point in time, though with permission from your opponent, further upgrades may be taken at the appropriate cost. The ability to take upgrades is to allow players to further customize them in a way consistent with the existing game mechanics. It does allow for player to use them to create custom characters as well.
