The '''Colonarius Mk1''' was the [[wikipedia:main battle tank|main battle tank]] used by the [[Morstaybishlian Empire]] from 1984 until 2012 where it was replaced by the [[Colonarius mk2]]. It succeeded the [[Khadgar]] model used in the [[Auroran Imperial War]]. The Mk1 is still widely used by the [[Royal Armed Forces of the Empire]], although they are expected to be fully phased out by 2025.
Colonarius mk1 is still widely storaged around Caltharus along with other weapons that are no longer in active duty, since they'll be used by the war time reserves in the event of full scale war in Caltharus.
