Troopers
"The Good Guys" (most of the time). The PC faction.
The Troopers are part of The Coalition.
The Troopers Corps on Sparga was technically disbanded, but a Trooper never retires. Many Troopers take on mercenary style work such as:
Bounty Hunting.
Private Investigations.
Intra or Inter City couriers.
Hired Muscles or Private Security.
Striking at alien targets (for old time’s sake).
Running tech recovery trips into the wastes.
Troopers find they don’t fit in with the colonists and are drawn to each other. Troopers take care of their own, sharing information and resources whenever possible. Most of the fortress cities have a Trooper bar or clubhouse at a minimum.
Groups of 20 to 100 Troopers are called platoons. Most fortress cities have at least one platoon. Platoons are further subdivided into semi-permanent squads of 3 to 8 Troopers
