'''Das Wilde''' (a gender-neutral name translating to the English '''The Wild''') is an umbrella term referring to the various infested individuals of national origin or affiliation with the [[Federal Republic of Rheinland]]. They are most commonly former [[Rheinwehr]] officers from the Nomad War of 800-803 [[A.S.]] It is a common misconception that Das Wilde is a term for any infested human, but while infestation exists in all areas of Sirius, only the successors to the infested forces within the [[Florian Gustav Niemann|Niemann]] administration can lay claim to the Germanic title of Das Wilde.
+
'''Das Wilde''' is the name of the [[infectee|infested]] or otherwise Nomad-aligned humans based in [[Omega-55]], [[Tau-117]] and [[Omega-58]], making up the southern presence of [[the Wild]].  While the core of Das Wilde is former [[Rheinland Military]] pilots, many taken during the [[Nomad War]] of 800-801 [[A.S.]], it also includes a handful of special individuals from other nearby factions.  In addition, Das Wilde supports a fleet of [[Scorpion Gunboat|Scorpion Gunboat Drones]].
 
 
The leadership of Das Wilde is a complete mystery. Their last known leader, former [[Grossadmiral]] [[Ernst von Scheck]] of the [[Nordkriegsmarine]] (670-800/804 A.S.) was killed in the Battle of New Berlin, 804 A.S. by the last remnants of the [[Kriegsmarine]] fleet and several minor and major criminal groups such as the [[Bundschuh]], the [[Red Hessians]] and the [[Landwirtrechtbewegung]], though in a captured array a single blurry, shadowy image was found of an unidentified humanoid figure who may be a figurehead or even the actual leader of Das Wilde.
 
  
 
==Synopsis==
 
==Synopsis==
Wilde could loosely be divided into four groups. Those of patrollers, hunters, civils and militants.
+
===Organization===
===Patrollers===
+
As a part of the Nomad collective, Das Wilde has no true leader- all elements work in harmony with one another without a need for hierarchy.  However, several notable individuals, such as "Wesen" or [[Hektor Schneider]] are known to spearhead many of their efforts.  Scorpion Gunboat Drones, however, occupy one of two roles in organization- if running an autonomous program, they are subservient and follow the commands of other Das Wilde agents in the field, while if controlled directly by the Nomads often lead raiding parties.
Patrollers are the most common kind of Wilde, flying modified [[Wrath|N9-ARKM-90 Wrath class fighter]]s and having been the subject of several Rheinland documentary films, among them "Die versteckte Drohung" (The Hidden Menace) by Fritz Bretschenider, famous for mixing actual combat footage from a former Rheinwehr officer with that of Kirche des grünen Adlers saint and composer Ralph Becker's "Weg des Adlers" (Path of the Eagle). They, like the song backing their appearance in the film, come swiftly, fiercely ravaging Rheinland ships with blue bolts of alien energy, mixed with old yet potent Kriegsmarine weaponry, decimating their foes unafraid of death.
+
===Forces===
 
+
Das Wilde makes extensive use of mixed human and Nomad technology.  Most commonly, they use [[Rheinland Military]] ships with Nomad-designed weaponry and wargear, sometimes allowing them to get close to their prey before they identify Das Wilde for what they are.  Das Wilde also maintains a growing fleet of [[Scorpion Gunboat|Scorpion Gunboat Drones]], hybrid ships slowly being trained to function on their own without any direct guidance. These ships are extremely dangerous, built from the ground up to support both Nomad and human technology.  When Scorpions are not being directly controlled by the Nomads, their behavior most resembles that of [[Artificial Intelligence]], though such terminology does not properly describe them.
===Hunters===
 
Hunters, unlike their patroller counterparts, tend to avoid direct contact with the enemy until they believe the time is absolutely right to strike, and venture autonomously from Wilde patrols to attack Rheinland targets, well illustrated via the Frankfurt campaign of 815. It is possible that they serve a special forces or commander role within the Wilde 'hierarchy', though this, like most xenopolitical studies, is almost total conjecture. Very sketchy reports indicate at least two instances of large, unknown craft being involved in Wilde attacks, but officially, the Rheinwehr denies these rumours.
 
===Die Höflichen===
 
"Die Höflichen" (the civil ones) is a slang term used among [[Buro der Marineintelligenz]] agents for the Wild who pose as agents and members of the Rheinland civil government, particularly for those involved in the Purge of 811, where over 120 infested library staff in the [[Kirche des Grünen Adlers]] faced off against a BM raid. This term can also, albeit loosely, be applied to the infested corporate personnel implicated in the scandal that led to [[Republican Shipping]]s formation, though as a slang term the phrase itself has not yet acquired definition among any of the 3 major dictionary cartels that monopolize Rheinland's [[German|lingua franca]]. By their very nature, the civils are unknown, and little common behavior has been found among the diverse array of infestation in Rheinland's history.
 
  
===Militaristen===
+
===Modus Operandi===
Militaristen (militarists) are an older, more recognized term for the Wild who actively impersonate members of the Rheinwehr or it's adjunct agencies, such as the Büro der Marineintelligenz, which is partly tasked with the elimination of Wild infestation. This term is used to help distinguish between active Wild agents, covert Wild agents and the [[Nomad War]] era Wild, who are considered a seperate category entirely. Militaristen, like civil, are covert by nature and difficult to identify, though certain Rheinwehr installations are rumored to be developing scanners to detect infestation through thermal and genetic testing.
+
Das Wilde specializes in surgical strikes and terror raids, making use of small, well-coordinated strike forces to accomplish their objectives.  In one common configuration, a handful of [[Wraith|Wraiths]] and [[Bergelmir|Bergelmirs]] will accompany a [[Scorpion Gunboat|Scorpion Gunboat Drone]], fanning out to locate targets and converging on any enemy that puts up significant resistance.  Should reinforcements arrive to deal with the threat, Das Wilde will employ a variety of misdirection tactics, sometimes getting two enemy relief groups to fire upon each other. Through these tactics, the [[Corsairs]] have lost entire battlegroups to forces they vastly outnumbered.
 +
===Operations===
 +
Das Wilde most commonly is seen terrorizing mining operations in [[Omega-7]], and while they have made a dent on commerce between Bretonia and Rheinland, these operations serve primarily as a cover for other operations. Das Wilde is always searching for humans to use as spies, puppets, or more directly as hosts to [[Nomad Incubus|incubi]] or material for experiments.  As with the events in [[Cambridge]] during the quest for [[the Sword in the Stone]], Das Wilde is also working toward another, far more long term goal.  All that is known now is that whatever it is, it involves the [[Newcastle]] system.

Speculations on their location abound among analysts and conspiracy theorists alike, from a nest near Liberty to above the standard plane to one of the uncharted systems in the Sigmas.

Das Wilde is the name of the infested or otherwise Nomad-aligned humans based in Omega-55, Tau-117 and Omega-58, making up the southern presence of the Wild. While the core of Das Wilde is former Rheinland Military pilots, many taken during the Nomad War of 800-801 A.S., it also includes a handful of special individuals from other nearby factions. In addition, Das Wilde supports a fleet of Scorpion Gunboat Drones.

Synopsis

Organization

As a part of the Nomad collective, Das Wilde has no true leader- all elements work in harmony with one another without a need for hierarchy. However, several notable individuals, such as "Wesen" or Hektor Schneider are known to spearhead many of their efforts. Scorpion Gunboat Drones, however, occupy one of two roles in organization- if running an autonomous program, they are subservient and follow the commands of other Das Wilde agents in the field, while if controlled directly by the Nomads often lead raiding parties.

Forces

Das Wilde makes extensive use of mixed human and Nomad technology. Most commonly, they use Rheinland Military ships with Nomad-designed weaponry and wargear, sometimes allowing them to get close to their prey before they identify Das Wilde for what they are. Das Wilde also maintains a growing fleet of Scorpion Gunboat Drones, hybrid ships slowly being trained to function on their own without any direct guidance. These ships are extremely dangerous, built from the ground up to support both Nomad and human technology. When Scorpions are not being directly controlled by the Nomads, their behavior most resembles that of Artificial Intelligence, though such terminology does not properly describe them.

Modus Operandi

Das Wilde specializes in surgical strikes and terror raids, making use of small, well-coordinated strike forces to accomplish their objectives. In one common configuration, a handful of Wraiths and Bergelmirs will accompany a Scorpion Gunboat Drone, fanning out to locate targets and converging on any enemy that puts up significant resistance.

Das Wilde is always searching for humans to use as spies, puppets, or more directly as hosts to incubi or material for experiments. As with the events in Cambridge during the quest for the Sword in the Stone, Das Wilde is also working toward another, far more long term goal. All that is known now is that whatever it is, it involves the Newcastle system.

As they do not attempt to hold ground, and almost exclusively make use of small raiding parties, Das Wilde's reach is quite long. While they most commonly operate in the low Omegas along the commerce routes between Bretonia and Rheinland, they have been seen in every populated system of both of those houses, and in previous years Sigma-13.
