History
After the 80 years war against the GMG, the remaining members of the Rheinwehr were forced to withdraw back to New Berlin and surrounding systems. With the military weakened, a period of civil unrest followed causing an increase in criminal activity across Rheinland.
To counter the growing increase in crime against the civilian population, a council of high ranking military officers quickly formed a federal police agency. This agency was responsible for the enforcement of Rheinland law, civilian and trade protection, the staffing and management of Vierlande Prison, the suppression of subversive and rebel groups, and personal protection to the Chancellor.
After several years of hard-won experience, the Rheinland Federal Polizei are an elite police organization.
Today, the Rheinland Federal Polizei (RFP) is the left hand of the Chancellor in Rheinland Territory. They enforce all laws put forth by him and punish all those who break them. This can be anything from breaking the Embargo between Liberty and Rheinland to smuggling contraband within Rheinland space. The Rheinland Federal Police are known throughout their territory to be both strict and ruthless when it comes to enforcing their laws.
Duties of the Rheinland Federal Polizei:
- Provide police escort to ensure that necessities and luxuries are able to pass through Rheinland space without fear of pirate intervention.
- Stop and interrogate ships who might have been a witness to or involved in any criminal activity. This activity requires the development of fun and creative detective role-play in game and in the forums.
- Suppress civilian rebel groups, such as the Volksfront and LWB. If they resist arrest, use all necessary force to remove them from civilian sectors.
- Patrol Rheinland territories that include New Berlin, Hamburg, Frankfurt, Stuttgart, Dresden, Munich, and Halle.
- Confiscate and destroy all illegal cargo. Fine the pilot of the ship (see fines below). If they flee or resist arrest, destroy the ship and tractor in the escape pod.
- Monitor the system channel for spy and encrypted transmissions. Spy transmissions typically begin with “//” or contain the letters “lol”. See below for more information on how to handle spies.
- Assist the Rheinland Military as needed.
- Eliminate all Pirates, Coalition, Nomads, Outcasts, Phantoms, Red Hessians, Unioners and all other threats to system security.
- Protect the citizens of Rheinland by offering assistance and other services
Laws & Fines
Polizei Regulations
- 1. Any vessel in Rheinland is to be ordered to halt for scan before clearance.
- 2. Military, Polizei, Civilian, and Freelancer pilot pods are to be dropped by the nearest available polizei officer or to be taken to the nearest station or planet. If the pilot of the ship refuses to drop the pods, destroy their ship.
- 3. Any form of smuggling is forbidden and punishable. The following actions can be made against smugglers:
• In case of a smuggler or embargo breaker, while flying a freighter, caught and made to surrender, no fines are to be collected, but forcing the trader to drop all contraband or unload their cargo on Hamburg is necessary.
• Regulations and fines that can be levyed upon smugglers can be found int he Laws of Rheinland. See Laws of Rheinland in „Links” section.
- 4. Any form of piracy and/or coercion of the citizenry is forbidden and punishable by the destruction of the pirate ship.
- 5. All sorts of Nomad materials are forbidden in Rheinland space. Ships carrying these materials are to be instructed to relinquish them for destruction or leave Rheinland territories. Should the captain of the ship chose to relinquish them and the items are mounted on the ship, they are allowed into orbital stations only--not planets--so the items may be removed on sealed docks for destruction. Failure to comply with this is punishable with ship destruction.
- 6. Ship restrictions are to be enforced according to the accurate paragraphs of the Laws of Rheinland. For current restrictions, see Laws of Rheinland in „Links” section.
- 7.Liberty Embargo Regulations:
Declared by the Laws of Rheinland, no transport is to pass Rheinland borders towards Liberty, except:
- Ageira or DSE hauling Gate or Trade Lane Parts.
- Synth Foods, Inc. hauling synth paste or other food.
- Orbital Spa and Cruise hauling legal Human Cargo (no slaves).
- Human Transportation by non Libertonian Corporations (no slaves)
- The Interspace Commerce is authorized to bring these commodities both ways across the border between Liberty and Rheinland, to supply their bases:
Niobium,Platinum,Polymers,Consumer Goods – excluding whips, chains and liquid latex,Food Rations,H-Fuel,Holo-tainment Bands,Iridium,Luxury Consumer Goods,Oxygen,Pharmaceuticals,Silver,Tobacco,Water,Wine
Ageira, DSE, Synth, Foods, IC and Orbital Spa and Cruise are allowed to haul the same goods within Rheinland.
If carrying other goods, they will be ordered to drop them and to change course to Liberty space.
Universal Shipping, as well as any other Liberty companies are banned from Rheinland space entirely.
Ships containing any other cargo are to be turned back home under penalty of death. Destroy their ship if they refuse to take the shortest route home with their cargo on board.
- 8. System-wide transmissions that are encrypted or containing sensitive information are the work of spies and traitors. These transmissions usually contain “//” or “lol”. For first offense, warn pilot that encrypted messages or messages of an inflammatory or subversive nature are not allowed in Rheinland space. If the spy continues to broadcast these messages, destroy the ship by any means necessary.
- 9. Pilots displaying hostile activity are to be shot on sight with prior warning.
- 10. Pilots of unknown and doubtful activity are to be requested to leave Rheinland. Those who fail to comply in a reasonable period of time will be shot on sight.

Ships
Light Fighters
   |
X4TS "Tiger Shark" Rheinland Civilian Light Fighter
The Tiger Shark is a unique vessel with its foundations in the bygone days of Rheinland's commercial might, designed as it was to serve the desires of the young, the rich and the reckless as a sporty racing vehicle. Those Sharks seeing modern production are engaged in more militaristic ventures, from escorting Republic convoys to serving as enforcement vehicles for off duty members of the Rheinland Military or Police looking to bring in bounty money by hunting down pirates and dissidents. While considered expensive to some, the Tiger Shark is a solid workhorse vessel capable of delivering plenty of punch to folks wishing to ruin a good day. This fighter is one of the basic three every day patrol vessels used by the RFP. All pilots may maintain one if they wish.
"Rheinland ships are generally known for their power and reliability, more so than their agility. However, of late the newer versions of the Banshee and Valkyrie have been adding more of that power and reliability to their engines. Both ships are using better, lighter metals that are stronger then others, so the naval ship builders can get away with putting less thickness onto the frames.
The Phantom in particular is an exception to the Rheinland rule about agility. The ship is relatively lightly armed and armored, but its agility matches that of any light fighter on the market. Anyone expecting the "slow but steady" typical Rheinlanders is going to get a rather nasty shock.
Primarily used for police work and interception, the Phantom is a staple of the Military Police units in Rheinland, and deservedly so."
A common ship of the Polizei, it is the nerve that sends the signal to move forward. All pilots are required to own a Phantom, Mjolnir or Tiger Shark.
"Based on the popular Hawk, the Griffin's similar external appearance hides a completely rebuilt interior, with a lighter frame supporting expanded nanobot storage banks and an expanded cargo bay. The wings have been completely restructured, with reinforced armor struts and extra power cell storage to support its superior maneuvering thrusters and enhanced weaponry over its predecessor."
This ship is rarely seen flown by regular patrol pilots, however it may be a choise for foreign pilots and those who don’t favour Rheinland spacecraft.
Heavy Fighters
 |
"As the name attests, this ship is formidable and is well-deserving of the reputation that it enjoys. With a balanced combination of refined offensive and defensive technologies, the Falcon delivers an astonishing amount of potential firepower to potential adversaries quickly and efficiently."
This ship is rarely seen flown by regular patrol pilots, however it may be a choise for foreign pilots and those who don’t favour Rheinland spacecraft.
Very Heavy Fighters
  |
"Few vessels have seen as much popular and widespread use in Sirius as the CTE-6000. With her ease of maintenance, rugged reliability and near universal supply of readily available parts, the nimble Eagle often finds itself in service as the space superiority fighter of choice for pilots ranging from convoy escorts to house terrorists."
This ship is rarely seen flown by regular patrol pilots, however it may be a choise for foreign pilots and those who don’t favour Rheinland spacecraft.
"Determined to keep ahead in the arms race between lawfuls and unlawfuls, Rheinland was forced to upgrade its already potent ships. As with the Phantom, the Wraith utilizes several new technologies into the base frame. Improved engines and power-plant, along with lighter and stronger armor make the Wraith surprisingly agile. It's no light fighter, but a skilled pilot can keep it out of enemy fire enough to ensure victory.
This vessel is highly restricted, much like its lighter brother. Only elite Military Police units are allowed this expensive craft, along with authorized military personnel."
Primarily used when hostiles can destroy our Phantoms with ease, or to counter Very Heavy Fighters. The Wraith is restricted to high ranking officers or pilots with military background. This ship is mostly used by RFP-SEK. units.
Super Heavy Fighters / Bombers
   |
19-ARKM-N82 "Mjolnir" Rheinland SHF
"The Rheinland Federal Police needed a ship capable of dealing punishment to smugglers and pirates alike, and Oder Shipyard delivered. Packing a huge power core, superior shielding and armor, and weapons hardpoints to spare, the Mjolnir is designed to give the Police the heavy hand they need to deal with well-armed unlawfuls. It is the difference between a SWAT team, and a lone cop on the beat. Never intended to be capable of lasting in massed fleet engagements, but rather the ship is built to last until help arrives."
A common sight in the Polizei patrols, this ship is designed to be a "right in" ship, dealing massive amounts of damage in a short amount of time. All pilots are required to own a Mjolnir or a Phantom.
CTE-19000 "Roc" Civilian Bomber
"Ironically labelled a 'civilian' bomber by its Libertonian designers, who also developed such classics as the 'Eagle' fighter, there is little civil about this piece of kit.
This ship is now being used by various civilian corporations that find themselves being pirated by gunboats and similar, who purchase this ship from construction yards or build it themselves after acquiring the rights to its patent. Also of note is the rather large amount of these ships found in the possession of criminal organisations such as the Xenos in Liberty and the Golden Chrysanthemums in Kusari space.
This may indicate that these groups are able to cannibalise the hulls of their Eagles and modify them to make them into bombers, or that they have more financial support for their military machines than lawmen would have previously imagined.
With the rising Gunboat activity an agile and already proven bomber was required. The Roc suited the role perfectly, due to the restricted numbers of Bergelmirs available.
140-ARKM-N58 "Bergelmir" Rheinland Bomber
The original N01 Rheinland Bomber was crafted as an almost reflexive move on the part of the Rheinland military to the disasterous losses of their assumingly immortal capital ship fleet at the hands of the GMG during the 80 year war. Pressed with the task of constructing a vessel capable of slipping past blockades to strike at vital supply depots and stations seemingly beyond the reach of the Chancellor's flag fleet. These early bombers were little more than cumbersome energy plants wrapped in armor, built in haste from the scavenged remains of gunboats taken from assembly lines. The modern "Snubnose" Rheinland bomber bears little resemblance to its predecessor. Ultra compact, sleek and possessing the height of Rheinland's renowned reactor technologies, the N58 is a testament to lessons learned and the murderous efficiency of the Chancellor's Military. This vessel is only available for RFP-SEK units for tactical strikes and high priority polizei operations.
Large Ships
   |
"This ship is used largely as a tactical support unit, however due to its speed it can also be used as a deep incursion craft for contact teams or recon."
The most powerful ship in the Polizei arsenal, it also requires permission from the Rheinwehr before being purchased. This is not a very good coordination unit, as if the Polizei have the convenience of one available it will normally be right on the front line.
568-ARKG-B6 "Behemoth" Rheinland Heavy Transport
"Following the end of the 80 year war in 669 A.S the Rheinland economy was in shambles. Government bailouts saw Stuttgart opened for plundering at the hands of Synth foods and unemployed miners and dissident citizenry caused crime to skyrocket planetside and space alike. These conditions coupled with the low moral of a poorly paid police and military force allowed for space faring piracy to skyrocket overnight.
Boasting a defensive capabilities and a hull that pushes the boundaries of even heavy Rheinlandish manufacturing philosophy to extremes, the Behemoth is in every way a vessel designed to restore Rheinland's commercial might regardless of what obstacle she must bulldoze along the way."
Behemoth's specifically outfitted to command and conquer. The command of one of these beast's is only entrusted with an officer. Although primarily designed to coordinate small operations, it can still reinforce the troops in the combat zone.
"Whether retrofitted decommissioned ships or engineered from scratch, these vessels house the criminal elements as well as their jailers."
Old, recently decommissioned Prison Liners bought from scrap yards to be retrofitted with the latest in Polizei technology. A step up from a Behemoth, these Liners have had their prison cells replaced with hangar bays. That means that the Liner can fly directly into the combat zone, and whilst being protected by the shield it can launch the combat team, and then fly away. It is not recommended to take one of these into combat, as some find it's length a problem.
