For those who don't know, the FELC is a small empire formerly located on the edge of Assyrian space. They betrayed the Immortals at FICO, cutting off most of their trade partners, such as the teknologicaly advanced Arkane Guard. They are currently engaged in border skirmishes with a few empires, but are holding their own. The leader of the Western Core Army is one Warrior Admiral Ross Varn, who has an immense bounty on his head after he led the betrayal at FICO.
The FELC has the teknology of Small Arms, using a Mrrson generator to effectively burn through solid objects with a long stream of particulate lazer power. They currently lack the tek to construct most large vehicles, though.
The Core out in full. These represent the FELC's Point Troops, troopers trained for specific purposes that they excel at doing. A Guardtek ground defense turret is in the background.
A small sampling of Guardtek that the FELC uses. The Arkane Guard and the FELC shared a beneficial weapons trade route until recently, so both factions use a lot of the other's weapons tek.
Point Troops class breakdown- left to right. Drone, used to assist Medics and Mechanics. Mechanic, repairs constructions. Able to add structure levels to stuff on the fly. Heavy, unconstrained by normal weapon size restrictions, gains a bonus to skill for the larger the weapon.
Warrior, immense bonuses to charging and CC. Scout, useful for avoiding nasty traps. Sniper, the antisocial deadly one.
Ross Varn, Warrior Captain. The picture's a bit shoddy. He's my original sigfig.
Irregulars. Normally leaders and combat-line troops in less-attention worthy worlds, Irregulars are issued with lower body power armor, giving them an edge when it comes to speed and agility.
The two basic trooper designs. MkI, on the left, sports a variable-clip Mrrson lazer rifle and a detonater DMB. MkII, on the right, carries a heavy rifle instead of a sidearm. FELC troops, due to superior training, receive +1 skill to rolls for reaction fire.
That's about all I've got. I'll get a Briklink together soon enough, and you'll see a large amount of front-line troopers then. Cheers!
