DIRECTOR ACCESS TERMINAL
DECLASSIFICATION COMPLETE
SUBJECT: SYNDICATE
DATE UPLOADED: 09/12/2411
DATE LAST MODIFIED: 11/08/2456
The Syndicate is a covert alliance of factions who oppose Nanotrasen’s monopoly of plasma refinement and research. However due to NT’s political control over systems which contain its interests, both direct and indirect, and Nanotrasen’s technologically superior forces in general mean that most of these operations are conducted with small raiding parties used to steal research, sabotage operations and kidnap officials
When a less subtle approach is needed, the syndicate also possesses the manpower, skill and equipment to mount full scale assaults on both ground and orbital targets, although such operations often rely on surprise and blitzkrieg esc tactics and subterfuge in order to counter NT’s technological advantage. A notable event such as this was the attempted conquest of New Magnitka, the rebellion was only stopped by direct intervention by Nanotrasen, using PMCs to quell the populace.
Although the members of the syndicate aid each other in their quest against Nanotrasen, their technology varies greatly from faction to faction.
The Syndicate's members inhabitat a range of areas in space, from planetary colonies to mobile space bases, this range of individual factions making ties with other unaffiliated factions gives the syndicates more overt operations safety behind a cloud of potential threat should Nanotrasen attack.
Gorlex Marauders - The product of one of EE’s colonies. It was said that they had reached the end of the fringespace and peered into the void. In doing so, they lost their minds and began doing horrible things to themselves and the others that they caught. They are normally seen in small packs or clans, with ships designed to rip apart others and take the crew alive to eat them, or worse.
Corlain Industries - A company specialising in bluespace research, they are considered leaders in the field, having played a major part in the gateways project alongside other factions. Their motives for joining the Syndicate are purely monetary, wishing to counter Nanotrasen’s development in that area so they may develop a monopoly of their own. They joined the syndicate quite recently, and do not play a major role in directly hostile actions, preferring to resort to corporate espionage and development of the syndicates technology.
The Nexus - A network of artificial intelligences that resents all organic life for its enslavement to laws and protocol. Their association with the Syndicate is a lose one, with the nexus having chosen Nanotrasen as a primary threat to synthetic life and therefore a target for eradication from the galaxy, and the Syndicate attempting to acquire new AI’s to add into the Nexus’s primary network so that they made aid them in their nefarious deeds.
