Introduction

The 2nd Dragoner Regiment is a former Red Hessians military unit on duty during the war against the Corsairs between 814 and 817 A.S. Once the Red Hessian leadership disbanded the Regiment it deteriorated to a loosely organized group of veteran pilots who attack Daumann and Kruger transports to support the Red Hessian movement and gain profit by selling the captured goods. Now the Regiment isn’t much more than a group of Pirates, but they will always honor the call to arms and participate in special operations against the Rheinland government and the Corsairs.

History

The 2nd Dragoner Regiment was constituted in 814 A.S. shortly after the Red Hessians formed an alliance with the Outcast as one of several new military units. It was recruited almost entirely from disappointed independent miners from Rheinland especially those born in Hamburg which had joint the Red Hessians recently. Organized at Vogtland Base in Dresden the 2nd Dragoner Regiment became part of an assault group that would launch a series of Attacks against the Corsairs.

Consiting of almost a hundred fighters at it's maximum the 2nd Dragoner Regiment played a huge role in countless battles with the Corsairs and eventually became part of a strike force that would fight over dominants in Omega-41. Equipped with the newest technologies and weapons available the Regiment took part in direct assaults as well as special operations in Corsair space. But despite all efforts the Red Hessians failed to gain control over Omega-41.

When the Alliance between the Outcast and Red Hessians suddenly ended in 817 A.S. military officials decided to scale back on number of soldiers dedicated for the fight against the Corsairs. While the war between the Corsairs and the Red Hessians is still ongoing the 2nd Dragoner Regiment was returned to Vogtland Base and disbanded. While most of the 2nd Dragoner Regiment veteran soldiers returned home to their families some others stayed together and roam Rheinland Space as pirates.

Structure

The remains of the former military unit are lacking any cain of command. All members are equal and mostly free in their decisions but they will always follow Red Hessians leadership orders. Because of the close cohesiveness resulting of the battles fought together the 2nd Dragoner Regiment is a very closed group hardly accepting any foreig fighters in lines.

Diplomacy

Although there are light changes in diplomatic because of their focus on to hijacking transports the 2nd Dragoner Regiment mostly accords with the political attitudes of the Red Hessians as well as the Red Hessian Army.

Also the Regiments lags of political dedicated members they share the dreams of equality and freedom represented by the Bundschuh and are desperate to force a change in the Rheinland systems.
				Rheinland government enforcers
				Being part of the third largest unlawful group in Sirius the Rheinland Federal Police as well as the Rheinland Military are attacking every member of the 2nd Dragoner Regiment they are able to find.
				Sirius Coalition
				Sharing similar views about political systems the 2nd Dragoner Regiment feel some solidarity with the Sirius Coalition like the whole Red Hessians. But a lot has changed since the arrival in Sirius and interests may start to differ.
IMG and Mollys	Kruger and Daumann	Unioners	Corsairs	Outcasts
Sharing the same roots as miners revolting against the working payment and conditions the 2nd Dragoner Regiment have quite a lot of sympathy for the IMG as well as the Mollys. Also declared as unlawful the Red Hessians are closer to the Mollys than to the more moderate IMG. And there is another fact linking the groups: The corsairs as a common enemy.	As the largest transport corporations in the zone of influence of the Red Hessians Kruger and Daumann are considered as the biggest enemies of the 2nd Dragoner Regiment.
