The Vereinigte Widerstandsarmee, also known as the Widerstand or the VWA, is a paramilitary of the Bundschuh created to unite the various factions that emerged after the fall of the Volksfront. It has among its ranks many former commanding officers of the Volksfront and the Rheinlandische Volksfreiheitspartei and has quickly become the dominant force within the Bundschuh.
Background
Times were dark for the Bundschuh when the Volksfront disbanded. The party became divided - small groups emerged but none of them lasted for long. They all disappeared as quickly as they arose. None of those who appeared was stable enough to unite the party's forces.
Some of those who had fought bravely under the banner of the Volksfront watched with pain in their hearts as everything they had worked so hard for fell apart. Something had to be done: something was. A message was broadcast to all Bundschuh members by Professor Augusta "Audino" Adler warning that the Bundschuh had grown weak. Responses were sent by a variety of people: former Volksfront officers; members of the small emergent groups; and Bundschuh members who had not fought before, but felt they had to stand up in these dark days. They all came together and agreed to build something new. Something that would last. Something which could bring the Bundschuh back together.
So, the ex-Volksfront officers took up the mantle to form an organised group once more. Rheinland military defectors, Bundschuh and other underground politicians, activists and Volksfront remnants joined together to form the VWA – Vereinigte Widerstandsarmee.
Hierarchy
The VWA is organised in a unique manner. While ranks do exist, important decisions are not decided upon by a high command, but rather by means of a vote among all members. This is usually done after the issue has first been discussed among various members and commanding officers.
Ranks are however relevant for day-to-day situations and members are expected to obey their superiors in order to operate as efficiently as possible in their guerrilla war against Rheinland.
Ranks
Oberst - The leading figure of the VWA. He/she is the most respected member and guides the VWA through their struggles.
Kommandant - These are valued members who have earned their stripes in the past. They advice the leader and aid him/her in his/her day-to-day tasks.
Aktivist - There are no common grunts in the VWA and these members are no less important than their commanders. In fact they may be more important, for without these men and women the VWA would be nothing.

Guidelines
Piracy and extortion of civilian elements is largely non-existent within the faction. Traders and/or civilians are a valid target for the movement if any of the following is true:
- Open or covert assistance of the current regime’s actions against the Volksrevolution, whether in a military, financial or resource aid manner. Attacks on allied and friendly entities will not be tolerated. Using lawful-aligned pieces of technology does not make you an enemy but will increase our suspicions regarding your ship.
- Transports and freighters carrying war materials (weapons, military-grade fuel, munitions etc.) will be a valid target unless proven to be headed towards any base belonging to revolutionary elements of Rheinland within Fatherland or its neighbouring systems.
- Well-founded suspicion/knowledge of your ship being infected. Aliens shall know no mercy. Vessels carrying alien-based technology of any form automatically make themselves viable for suspicion and piracy.
VWA members’ behaviour depend on the individual. They could be a peaceful student activist within the Bundschuh, or an ex-Military officer actively hunting the oppressive regime.
