The Federation of Crimson Suns

Post by Captain Primrose » Sun May 28, 2023 3:27 pm

A collection of small star systems that share Red Dwarf stars as their suns, the Federation is a government and military body structured around a democratic parliament (known as the Crimson Council). Unfortunately, around half of the elected parliamentarians were historically elected on platforms of non-action (or even worse, pacifism!), which has stopped the Federation from joining in major military actions in the past. Recently, several council members ignored "wet floor" signs and slipped on blue tiles acting as a vague representation of water. Following this humiliating defeat at the hands of the colour blue, the vengeful Federation has prepared its small peacekeeping forces to fight for goal of establishing the orderly colour of red across the Brikverse, fighting side-by-side with the forces of its allies in the Rubrum Crucesignatis.

While the armoury of the Federation remains relatively small, it is a highly mobile force capable of responding to threats to peace and the colour red across the Brikverse.

As a military without much distinction between space and ground combat, most security matters are handled by versatile Federation Troopers. Equipped with rifles and anti-tank missile launchers, these troops are well equipped to take on enemies of the RC!

For handling more sensitive matters, the Federation relies upon the highly trained commandos. Psychologically conditioned to be more clever than normal troopers and equipped with rifles and anti-tank railguns, these small teams possess the firepower and brains to take on many opponents.

For mobile firepower, the Federation relies on the iconic Jaguar, an armoured car serving in dozens of factions across the Brikverse. Equipped with the standard twin grenade launcher, machine gun, and a smoke launcher, this vehicle remains just as potent as it was in BR 2,009

Another important mechanized asset, the Armoured Ground Transport Vehicle is capable of transporting 6 troopers and supporting them with a smoke launcher and optional rocket-system. Though slower than other APCs, it possesses heavy armour and a variety of hatches to shoot out of which make the AGTV a reliable support vehicle.

The last vehicle currently in use by the Federation is the Striker Light Fighter. Designed as a small air-superiority fighter, the indiscriminate nature of brik-built missile guidance systems makes it an effective ground-attack craft, much to the shock of everyone involved in it's development.

This is presently my best equipped faction and the one with the most vehicles. I have been building it off and on for around 2 years and am very happy to finally post them 'officially'

That armored transport is sick! The shaping is absolutely perfect!
