Betrayal is a common event within Soviet Union with defectors hoping to pass off their technology to their new masters. When a Commander is able to infiltrate Rogue Soviet Intelligence they are able to unlock the Colossus Tank. A near-forgotten Soviet Unit. Built on the ideas of Cybernetics and Tesla Technology the Colossus is a Soviet Soldier who has undergone extreme cybernetic enhancement and placed atop a Tank Chassis. The crude and rushed procedures to mount the newly enhanced soldier often times leave the Soldier with psychological and physical trauma leading to some candidates lashing out and killing Soviet Personnel. This led to future prototypes being implanted with a control chip that keeps the Tank under check. The experimental nature of the Colossus Tank has it outfitted with multiple tesla coils which diverts electrical energy from enemy or allied attacks to reinvigorate the Tank healing and repairing the unit. This grants the Colossus increased resilience in the battlefield leading to some Commanders to using Tesla Troopers or other Colossus Tanks to act support each other and increasing their longevity in combat.
