History
The High Kommand requested a new warjack chassis from the Mechaniks Assembly at the end of the Thornwood War. Inspired by the unbreakable tenacity of the 5th Border Legion at the end of the conflict, they presented a tough, implacable, yet simple design that was built for straightforward relentless advances and limited it's reliance on supplies such as ammunition.

Properties
The Kodiak's chassis is built around a large oversized heavy boiler giving the warjack it's tremendous power and endurance. The lack of ranged weapons is of no consideration to the Kodiak which is best deployed in dense difficult terrain. In such environments it's ample supply of power will keep it moving forward, tearing through obstacles and the enemy with both of it's armored fists.[1]
The Kodiak is also able to vent excess steam from it's heavy duty boiler to emit a cloud of superheated steam around itself. This gives the warjack the additional ability to both obscure itself and kill nearby enemies. The Kodiak is a simple yet effective machine that is common and serves in all theatres of war for the Khadoran Empire. It is a favorite of the 5th Border Legion.[1]
