Description
The HAF is a military kind faction from the Corsairs. Its primary role is to defend the corsair territory from hostile attacks and other menaces, controlling the space traffic and making strike missions against the enemies of the Corsairs, outside the Corsair space.
Our main base is Tripoli in Omicron Gamma, due to the build of the first HAF fleet on this base long time ago, as it is explained latter. There, is the place where the remains of the HAF fleet are returning and regrouping as the new 817 A.S. HAF and that is why “Base 1” becames home.
But as a military Corsair faction, HAF patrol the area around the Corsair and uses all its bases when required (except those reserved for other Corsair factions, in which case they do so under its permission).
History
The Hispania
The Hispania house was formed by several mediterranean and latin countries. Hispania was called in honor of the former province of the Roman Empire in Iberian peninsula. The majority of countries that were allied to create this ship were Hispanic, but not all, there were also some Israelis,Lebanese, Greeks, Italians, Romanians, Serbs, Croatians,Albanians etc..., apart from the Spanish and American countries. Therefore, many bases from the lost children of Hispania were named as mediterranean and other location places.
By the year 2100, along with four other sleeper ships, they broke through the Coalition blockade and headed to Sirius. The 5 ships travelled with the intention of creating 5 large houses, Hispania, Kusari, Bretonia, Rheinland and Liberty.
Unfortunately, the coalition had managed to sabotage the Hispania and almost all of its engines exploded when the Hispania passed thrue Omicron Alpha, leaving the ship half destroyed in the middle of the space. Settlers traveling in, awoke early and half of them decided to continue the journey starting in the escape capsule that had assigned to Omicron Gamma, and founded a colony on the planet Crete, which was the origin of the so-called Corsairs. The rest of the settlers from the Hispania, managed to reach, in the escape capsules, a planet that remained close to the Hispania and founded a colony on the planet that was called Malta, and they became the Outcast. Since then, there is great hatred between the two factions of Hispania, since both were accused of causing sabotage on the sleeper ship. Despite the fact that time after it was discovered that the the sabotage was made by the Coalition, the hatred between the Corsairs and Outcasts never entirely disappeared, and sadly, today they are still at war.
Then, was when the first seeds of the current HAF born, formed by the descents of old members from the Earth´s HAF, that foght in the Solar system war against the Coalition, they tried to create a naval force to defend the Hispania space, Corsair or Outcast, like the rest of the big houses did.
A long time ago the Outcast discovered Cardamine on their planet, Due of their exposure to the Cardamine on Malta, their DNA changed. Eventually they even had to provide their pilots who operated off-planet with a breathing system containing cardamine to keep them alive. Cardamine spread through Sirius as a plague, thanks to the cartels that controlled their distribution.
Over the years, and financed by the large benefits from cardamina commerce, moved using dark paths into the planets of Liberty and the rest of big houses, cartel heads occupied the main public and politicians seats in Malta helping them to rule all his people.
The HAF decided to help their astrayed Outcasts brothers to liberate themselves from the tyranny of cartels, facing the Malta´s Congress. Finally, an opportunity arises. A confidant of the HAF in Ruiz base report that the cardamina cartels were preparing a large shipment, the business which would flood all Sirius with cardamina, cleaning the way of the cartels to became the wealthiest and most powerful faction. The HAF informer offered the possibility of end the hegemony of the drug at a stroke. To do so, the HAF should be used to fund, he said. The HAF came with all its power and the ships darkened sun of Omicron Alpha. The strike against the tyranny of the cartels was ready.
Day of Betrayal
During this time, a HAF confidant at Ruiz Base betrayed them and led them into an ambush. A huge Outcast fleet, aided by Kusari pirate groups, treacherously Attacked the HAF fleet without warning. In the first two hours, two thirds of the HAF fleet had been destroyed and the rest withdrew, leaving behind a trail of heroic blood, jumping into holes that meant salvation. The day was called the weeping day in the history of the HAF, although those who remember and not forget, they prefer calling it the Day of Betrayal.
The remains of the HAF fleet, where crowded civilian ships with thousands of families of the military killed in combat, which finally concentrated in the Omicron Theta system. There, a Corsair fleet gave them coverage and began to counter attack the Outcasts and Kusary pirates pursuers. In this way, finally reach his home planet Crete in Omicron Gamma.
The New HAF
HAF members still were working in a low profile. Some with the corsairs, other hidden inside the zoners, but always in contact. And they designed a plan that would lead them to re-unite Hispania and free the outcast people from cardamine cartels. In great secrecy, they were collecting their profits, and investing it in building a new fleet, and not very long time ago, HAF began to fly back to space, in Gamma, with his corsair brothers.
Despite the lawlessness among the Corsairs, their strategic position in the Edge nebula systems, allowed an early vision of what was coming, the pirates felt instinctively that those strange aliens known today as nomads, were a threat to their survival.
A reconnaissance expedition was dispatched to the unknown nomad space, and not without great difficulties, managed to return and report about the large fleet they had seen. Immediately the Corsairs knew that would fight or die again.
It was decided to build a large military kind fleet to defend the Corsair space from the seemingly inevitable invasion by the nomads. For this occasion, the name and crest that fall over Crete almost 800 years ago in the tail of an SX-V-212 Stormshuttle, was recovered, the crest of the Hispania Armored Forces.
This meant a drastic reduction of materials, and many reinforcements were moved to Crete. That eventually allowed the remarkable expansion of the Red Hessians and the easy Rhonebürg defense. Also meant a dramatic increase in piracy which forced the construction of a defense line in Cambridge, basically armed stationary platforms.
After building the largest fleet ever seen in Gamma until that time, a feeling of invincibility filled the hearts of the corsairs, those times seemed glorious.
Current HAF History
After many years of fierce struggle away from Crete, a small contingent of the HAF fleet head back to Gamma, during those neverending years, the Council of Elders had been created between the corsairs, various factions had emerged and respected families gained unprecedent power among the anarchist corsairs, new threats such as the Coalition ships and the Wild are now close to the corsair border, in Sirius, new systems had been discovered and colonized, and the strategical position of Yaren base and the Zoner satellite in Omicron Delta, the lighthouse in the night that saved the HAF fleet from an inevitable lost in space fate. Without knowing the rest, lost in the path of the warrior, this small contingent sent to Tripoli to repair and equip its ships was entirely devoted to fight the Bounty Hunters Guild incursions and other threats in Gamma, and Omega-41, spreading latter on their patrol path and stikes against the enemy far away from the beloved Crete.
After several weeks, HAF presence among the corsairs turned into a common thing and the recruit office was forced to open again, especially for the orphans and corsair most adventurer soul’s requests that were seraching for a new family or new challenges.
