Features

IMG wing

The Rot Front is known for large number of former Independent Miners Guild members in its ranks. They come from the deep space exploration fleet sent by the IMG around 15 years ago who returned to the Omega-7 after their long journey and found the Krugers and Daumanns openly operating in what they believed to be the IMG territory. That resulted in the violent conflict, which quickly escalated to the point of Rheinwehr intervention. They were forced to leave the guild because of its HQ's politics regarding Kruger and Daumann corporations in Omega-7 system as friendly and to be cooperated with. But no one outside Rot Front and IMG HC know that "exodus" was planned jointly with IMG HQ and one of the "rogue" capital ships, damaged carrier Cloud, was not destroyed, but instead handed over to the IMG HC and moved to Tau sector with all crewmembers and pilots from the expedition who did not want to join the Hessian movement. The rest of "refugee" fleet was successfully moved to Omega-11 and after short negotiations with RHA Oberkommando and the Rot Front representatives joined the Red Hessian movement and the Rot Front fleet. Since then they fight the corporate menace and support the IMG under the Hessian banner, and took the by no means small part in the defense of guild's interests and lives during the Omega-7 annexation by Rheinland.


Radio "Wahrheit"

Numerous automatic transmitters are broadcasting prerecorded files files in Rheinland respective systems and Omega-7. This is the radio "Wahrheit" which belongs to Rot Front. Government seeks to jam or destroy these transmitters, however, so the transmissions are usually filled with static and transmitters require frequent replacements due to hazardous locations of operations and Rheinwehr pilots searching for and physically destroying the transmitters. Propaganda Department is working day and night to adress these problems.
