Khador is one of the eponymous Iron Kingdoms and one of the main factions in Warmachine. They are stereotypical "Russian" country, blending late Tsarist Russia with the Soviet Union. They like snow, bears, snow, men that act like bears, and heavy industry (like mining).

Unlike most of the other factions, Khador is not particularly advanced and has few cortexes to build warjacks. Most of these cortexes are used on massive heavy 'jacks. Instead of light warjacks, they have Man-o-Wars, which are basically elite warriors wearing steam-powered armour. The rest of Khador's army is primarily made up of the Winter Guard, a stereotypical "Russian conscripts" army however don't think they will just throw thousands of them and drown out the enemies in numbers (in fact their High Kommander almost killed himself in shame for thinking his men were just numbers). Khador has been winning the current war by fighting smart.

Unlike Cynar, Khador doesn't have any real religious tension (did did however banned Hierarch Severius for entering the nation because last time he was he there left with thousands of newly converted followers) due to putting more importance in National loyalty did doesn't matter if you worship the Twins or the "old Faith" you were born Khador.

Khador's army is broken down in these groups.

Assault Kommandos: Cygnar's main defense is trench warfare and these guys are design to counter this. Armed with Magtek nightvison goggles sheilds and guns with gas grenade launchers. They sneak in a trenchline and wreck havoc allowing for the Winterguard to safely cross no mane's land.

Man-o-Wars: Since Khador lacks light warjack they just put the best, strongest Winter Guard in steam punk powerarmor, THEY DIE IN STEAM!

Iron Fangs: The oldest type of warriors hailing all the way back to the days before the Iron Kingdoms. Simply put they're heavily armored troops with spears, now they're used as anti-warjack units given spears with exploding tips. Come in cavalry Uhlan.

Winterguard: The backbone of Khador's army. All men are conscripted while women are only volunteer, most aren't force they see this are an proud honor to serve there nation. Most of Khador's attemps to modernized it army is here. Before Empress Ayn Vanar they were just armed with axes, now they're armed with outdated guns and axes, some of the more elite units are given better rifles.
