The Njord is a frontline heavy dropship, an aggressive transport created for the express purpose of creating a beachhead position and securing it. It lacks the capacity of the Poseidon – carrying a reduced complement of 4 rather than 6 battle walkers – but it makes up for this with ground sweeping offensive capability.
Augmenting its standard armaments are two Heavy Stealth Missile Pods. Independent targeting and multiple cascade salvos create devastation the equal of a medium-sized Sabre MBT squad at close range. Given its aggressive design, the Njord tends to deploy close assault and support battle walkers, often including a mix of Phobos and Menchit A1 and A2s, creating a combined arms force to take on all possible threats.
Rules for this unit can be found in Reconquest: Phase 2
