Synopsis

The Red Hessians are a loosely grouped organization of Rhineland workers and miners who have fallen on hard times and taken to a life of rebellion and piracy. They constantly struggle to carve out their own realm against the gluttonous Rhineland corporations, as it stands; the current Rhineland government is weak to the point of being under the near-total control of the massive corporations Daumann, Kruger, and Republican Shipping.

The Hessian Tears Squadron was formed as a black ops squadron a short while after the nomad wars broke out. Named after the blue diamonds mined from the depths of Hessian space, they were spoken of in rumour and tales in the bars around the Hessian systems until there was a leaked report of them missing whilst in Wilde space.
