The red nebula syndicate


Though little is known of this faction, they consist entirely of former pirates, thugs, and other gutter trash, all brought together under a single banner, smaller criminal factions being crushed along the way. Their leader is none other than Zhonu Khojjoiz, an ambitious Sith who started with nothing, he reformed these ruffians into something great, and now he plans to put them to use. Utilizing their incredibly hard to detect fleet, and powerful arsenal, they're a true force to be reckoned with. Though they have no interest in the war. Currently they're establishing their influence over small colonies and such, setting up a presence.

Fleet size: Only eight ships, disguised as asteroids and about half the size of earth's moon, each with a droid fighter production and deployment system meant for defending the exterior of the ship(at most there are forty active at once as the VI can't control any more, however there are usually forty more in reserve and it takes about a single turn to make one in rp), ten laser canons, two shield generators, a hyperdrive, stygium cloaking field generator (for radars and such not visual) multi directional thrusters, deployable solar panels, and regular power generators, and finally ten mass driver turrets. Each ship has a compliment of forty thousand crewmembers, and thirty five thousand soldiers aboard, there are fifteen shuttles on each and each can hold fifty soldiers. There are also forty manned bombers and fifty manned fighters aboard each as well. The bay where smaller ships are kept are also staffed by two dozen astromech droids and twenty pit droids.

However one ship stands apart, out of the eight, the Calypso is the largest, not quite twice the size, of the other ships, but nearly, it has twenty laser cannons, fifteen mass driver turrets, a more powerful droid fighter system (sixty active, sixty in reserve, and two made per turn) three shield generators, more powerful thrusters, a back up hyper drive, a redundant stygium field generator system. The ship is manned by a compliment of fifty thousand crewmembers, and protected by forty five thousand soldiers. The bay holds twenty five shuttles, sixty manned bombers and seventy manned fighters.

The soldiers wear armor made of a durasteel bronzinium alloy, heavy but reliable, each carry a blaster, a rifle, three regular grenades and four flash bangs along with three smoke grenades, and carry a vibro blade cutlas, their races vary but are unimportant as they're all former pirates from all over the galaxy. While not the best of the best, every one of them are strong and quite blood thirsty under all the discipline their leader has forced upon them.

The crewmen wear uniforms which I have yet to find a good picture for, and carry a small blaster pistol and a medium length vibro blade.
