The Atalan is an Imperial brand of a variety of rugged exploratory machines, that can be found on almost every industrial, forge, or agri world. Much like the ubiquitous lasgun, they are cheap to manufacture, highly durable and easy to repair and is built to run for decades or even centuries. Atalan vehicles have much to recommend their use: each has a robust frame and a shock absorbing suspension array; an engine that can run on multiple fuel types; and the capacity to mount stowage, recovery tools and auxiliary equipment without loss of efficacy. This has led them to become well-respected workhorses across the industrialized elements of the Imperium, especially in fringe regions and Sectors Fronteris. They are also typically shipped to mining corps by the Departmento Munitorum, for the purposes of locating and claiming resources for the Imperium's ever-hungry empire. Unfortunately, the vehicles' strengths make them coveted by Genestealer Cults as well and as a result, infested Imperial worlds must deal with roving warbands of Atalan Jackals.[1]
