One of the most clearly defining features of the Solar Auxilia is their unique panoply of war, which sets them aside from the myriad different forces within the wider Imperialis Auxilia, and is informed both by their history and their particular role in the Imperium's vast war machine.

太阳辅助军最为清晰可辨的特征之一就是他们独特的战争装备,这让他们区别于庞杂的帝国军(体系)中的众多不同的部队。这种情况受到了他们的历史以及他们在帝国庞大战争机器中的特殊角色的共同影响。

Personal Arms

单兵武器

The most singular and perhaps iconic piece of wargear utilised by a member of the Solar Auxilia is their void armour; a carapace- reinforced, full environmental combat body armour with a fully integrated life support unit. The void armour worn by the Solar Auxilia, eponymously classified as 'Solar pattern' is itself a mass-produced modification of the ancient void armour worn by the Void Hoplites of the Saturnyne Ordo. The armour is fully sealed and capable of resisting small arms fire, ballistic impacts and shock trauma, is self healing against minor penetrations and lacerations, and is particularly resilient against radiation and thermal effects, making it highly effective for combat operations in hostile environments of many kinds, not simply the open void. Although efficient and resilient, void armour however should not be considered to be a match in regards to durability or sophistication to Legiones Astartes power armour, which operates at a greater order of magnitude in terms of defence and endurance.

太阳军们使用的最为奇特,以及可能是最为标志性的装备就是他们的虚空甲,这种甲壳增强的全环境战斗护甲被整合入了生命支持单元。太阳军们所穿着的虚空甲被同名地分类为“太阳型”,它本身就是土星联盟的虚空重步兵们所穿着的古老虚空甲的大规模量产改型。这种护甲完全封闭,能够抵挡小型武器射击、流弹伤害与冲击伤害,对于轻微的穿透和撕裂具有自我修复能力,而且尤其能够抵抗辐射和热量。这让虚空甲在各种恶劣环境里的战斗行动中都极为高校,而非仅仅局限于开阔的虚空环境。不过,尽管虚空甲高效且有恢复性,但我们并不能就此认为认为它具有匹敌阿斯塔特军团动力甲的耐久性和高强性能,后者有着极其强悍的防御和耐力。

Just as the void armour worn by the Solar Auxilia is greater in terms of sophistication and material cost, so is its small arms weaponry, the most common of which is the Kalibrax V-1 pattern lasrifle. The Kalibrax operates within the standard assigned power ranges set down by the Officio Militaris for Imperialis Auxilia weaponry, but is notable both for its heavily reinforced energy transfer capacitors, overall durability and superior heat dissipation qualities over more common patterns such as the Mars Mkll lasgun or the Ursh-Vanrovka lascarbine. These factors make it highly desirable for the hazards of void warfare, and also easily able to handle a variety of modifications and augmentative systems, such as bolt-collimator arrays and induction blast-chargers, without the fatal strain such devices might impose on lesser weapons. Historically, in terms of light support and specialised weaponry, the Solar Auxilia has always favoured various forms of directed energy weapons, including flamers, meltas, multi-lasers and lascannon, particularly for their suitability to void combat and to simplify maintenance and munitions supply, although bolt and rotor cannon-type weapons were far from unknown in the cohorts, particularly when a Solar Auxilia Cohort had operated for long periods alongside other Imperial forces.

与太阳军所穿着的虚空甲一样,他们使用的小型武器的复杂性和资源耗费也更高,其中最为常见的是卡里布拉斯V-1型激光步枪,这种武器在军务庭为帝国辅助军所制定的标准分配功率范围内运行,不过它因大幅增强的能量转换电容、综合耐久性和比诸如火星2型激光枪或乌尔什-万罗夫卡型激光卡宾枪等常见型号更优越的散热质量而著称,这些因素让它在危险的虚空战中变得极其称手,而且也能被轻松地加装上各种改件和增强系统,比如螺栓(固定的)直准阵列和感应式快速充电器,而且不会产生这些装置可能对较小武器所造成的致命压力。在轻型支援和特殊武器上,太阳军们通常偏好各种定向能武器,包括火焰喷射器、热熔枪、多管激光和激光炮,他们选择这些武器是由于其对于虚空战的适应性,以及出于简化维护和降低弹药供给难度的考量。但爆弹和转膛炮类型的武器在太阳军兵团中也绝非是闻所未闻,尤其是太阳军与帝国其他部队长期联合作战时(也会使用此类武器)。

太阳军也有接受过强化改造的欧格林部队

Once the standard armament of a significant number of infantry sections, volkire weapons became increasingly rare as the Great Crusade had worn on, and by the Horus Heresy became the preserve only of the most elite of their Veletaris units, and to carry such a weapon became a thing of great distinction in the ranks of the Solar Auxilia, the weapons themselves passing from solider to solider as time went on. The weapons of the Solar Auxilia's officer class have a tendency to be highly idiosyncratic in nature, with each officer allowed to furnish their own personal arms, allowing for considerable variation and indeed competition between them to do so, with the sword of various forms being held commonly as the mark of an officer. Duelling between officers of similar rank outside of active war has always been permitted within certain parameters within the Solar Auxilia, both as sport and more lethally over matters of honour (with a commanding officer's permission). For this the Terran Charnabal sabre is the most common implement, and the training and skill this encourages is seen as being purely beneficial to those involved and the cohorts they serve.

爆燃武器曾经是大量步兵方队的标准武器,但随着大远征推进,这种武器变得越来越罕见,等到荷鲁斯叛乱时期,只有太阳军中最为精锐的单位——维勒塔里斯突击队还保留着此类武器,携带这种武器在太阳军部队中也成为了重要的特殊身份标志,随着时间流逝,武器本身也从士兵们手中流转。太阳军军官们的武器在本质上有一种非常特殊的倾向,每位军官被允许装饰自己的个人装备,这让军官的武器存在了可观的改型和事实上的竞争,各种形制的动力剑更是被常见地视作军官的身份标志。再非作战时段,同级别军官之间也被允许进行特定范围之内的决斗,这是一种运动,而当事关荣誉时,这种决斗就会更为致命(不过需要得到指挥官许可)。泰拉的剔骨军刀是太阳军军官们最常见的佩刀,而且太阳军所鼓励的格斗训练和近战技艺被认为对于参与者和其所在的兵团都是完全有益的。

Tactical Support

战术支援

Every Solar Auxilia Cohort is intended to operate as a self-contained force, and it is organised and supplied with additional infrastructural support based on its assigned role. For example, if on exploration duty or in open warfare, the cohorts almost always operate as a mechanised force, utilising large numbers of heavy, all-environment armoured transports as mounts and rally points for their troops. Most common of these is the Dracosan Armoured Transport, which possesses both the transport capacity to carry entire lasrifle sections in a single vehicle and is possessed of both considerably more armour and inherent rad/alchem protection than the ubiquitous Rhino, as well as a life support system of greater endurance. Alongside this primary ground vehicle, a specific armoured and often armed variant of the Arvus Lighter serves as the Solar Auxilia's most numerous support transport. This STC pattern is a robust and reliable orbital interface craft whose trusted design predated the Imperium's founding by unknown centuries, and is used in a variety of roles from troop transport, to reconnaissance craft, to supply conveyor and even as an impromptu gunship.

每支太阳军兵团都倾向于作为自给自足的部队进行运作,他们基于自己被指定的角色进行组织,并由额外的支援设施提供支援。例如,倘若太阳军兵团要执行探索任务或参与公开战争,他们基本总是会作为机械化部队进行运作,用大量的重型全环境装甲运输车作为部队的运输载具和集结点。其中最常见的天龙装甲运输车,一辆运输车就能承载一整个激光步枪分队,而且这种载具装配了比无处不在的犀牛运输车都更为厚重的装甲和更优良的内置防辐射/防巫术保护系统,其维生系统也有更高的耐用性。除了这种主要的地面载具,某种装备了特殊装甲并且通常进行了武装的阿尔维斯轻型登陆艇改型是太阳军数量最多的支援运输机。这种载具的STC模板是一种坚固可靠的轨道接入飞行器,其可信赖的设计能追溯到帝国建立之前某个未知的世纪。这种飞船可以用作各种角色:部队运输机,侦查飞行器,补给运输机,甚至是临时炮艇。

As might be expected given the Solar Auxilia's close relation to void warfare and orbital assault, additional naval support by fighter craft, heavy gunships and orbital landers is also very closely factored into the Solar Auxilia Cohorts' sphere of operations, with the Auxilia possessing its own cadres of pilots and void ratings integrated into a given cohort's own chain of command to facilitate its operation. Almost uniquely among the Excemis Imperialis, Solar Auxilia Cohorts stationed upon ships of the line also make use of specially modified Shark pattern boarding rams for void assault actions, a deadly form of engagement usually assumed to be the sole province of the mighty Legiones Astartes.

就像预期的那样,考虑到太阳军与虚空战和轨道进攻之间的密切联系,在太阳军兵团的行动中也有考虑到战斗机、重型炮艇和轨道登陆艇提供的额外海军支援,辅助军也拥有自己的飞行员和虚空部队军衔等级,并将其整合到给定的队列自己的指挥链中以促进其运作。驻守在星舰上太阳军还会在虚空突击行动中使用特殊改造过的鲨鱼跳帮艇,这在几乎所有的帝国军部队中都是独一无二的。这种致命的交战方式通常被认为只能由强大的阿斯塔特军团使用。


Heavy Armour and Ordnance

重装甲和炮兵

The Solar Auxilia Cohorts make extensive use of support armour and mobile artillery units in open battle, and unlike the forces of the wider Imperialis Auxilia, these are invariably patterns designed and proofed against void and hostile environment operation, including radiological shielding and internal life support systems. These include the notably advanced Mars-Solar pattern Leman Russ battle tanks, created specifically to the Auxilia's specifications by the Lords of the Red Planet —both swifter and more sophisticated than their more commonly encountered counterparts— as well as semi-automata variant Basilisk and Medusa artillery tanks mounted on those same environmentally sealed Leman Russ chassis. Solar Auxilia Cohorts are also renowned for their routine deployment of prefabricated defence works, fortifying any encampment they make or outpost they construct, however temporary; a standard operating procedure born of extensive deployments on unknown worlds far from ready aid.

太阳军兵团会在公开战争中大量使用支援装甲单位和移动炮兵单位,而且不同于普通帝国辅助军部队,太阳军部队的装备被证明能够在虚空和恶劣环境中作战,它们装备的辐射屏蔽装置和内置的生命维持系统。其中就包括尤为先进的火星—太阳型黎曼鲁斯战斗坦克,这种武器是火星的领主们针对太阳辅助军的规格而特别创造出来的,相比于其他更为常见的战斗坦克,火星—太阳型黎曼鲁斯战斗坦克速度更快,也更精密;太阳军还配备了基于同样的环境封闭型黎曼鲁斯坦克底盘而研发出的半自动化石化蜥蜴和美杜莎炮击坦克改型。太阳军还因为他们对于预制防御工事的常规部署而著称,哪怕只是要临时加固他们建造的任何营地或前哨,这是太阳军在远离(拥有)现成援助的未知世界进行广泛部署时的标准操作程序。


Most Solar Auxilia Cohorts also feature at least one fully equipped super-heavy armour sub-cohort within its ranks, whose armoury contains numerous types of general battle units such as the Malcador and the Baneblade, as well as vehicles reserved for more specialised roles such as the Shadowsword and Stormhammer. It is notable, however, that more specialised siege formations, such as static artillery batteries, are rarely included within a cohort's regular order of battle, as siege duty and attrition warfare was largely considered a waste of the Solar Auxilia's particular capabilities by strategic command during the Great Crusade, and left to other, more specialised formations of the Excertus Imperialis.

几乎所有的太阳军兵团都会保有至少一个满配的超重型装甲次级兵团,这些装甲编队的武库中保存着种类繁多的常规作战单位,比如马卡多重型坦克和毒刃,以及执行某些更为具体任务的载具,比如影剑和风暴锤。但很明显太阳军兵团的常规战斗序列中极少包括诸如固定式炮群之类更为专用的攻城编队,因为在大远征时期,战略指挥部在很大程度上认为攻城战和消耗战是对于太阳军卓越能力的浪费,这些任务会留给帝国辅助军中其他更为专业的部队。
