LORE~

(Origin)
First formed in 2942, the Trident Expeditionary Brigade is a relatively new light combat/scout fleet, with a fearsome reputation. The Brigade was initially proposed by RSI to the UEEN as an experimental fleet composition, designed specifically to respond rapidly to outer rim pirate incursions and establish/defend FOBs (forward operating base) in hostile territories. Although it excelled at this task, the brigade however is most recognized for its extensive deployment during the initial Vanduul incursions of 2945-2947. Trident is aptly named after its ( at the time prototype ) “Trident Doctrine”. The doctrine laid out the golden standard of light, rapid deployment, combat fleet compositions.

(Battle of Vega)
Notably, Trident was tasked with protecting civilian transports during the infamous battle of Vega II (October 5th, 2945). Shortly after the battle commenced, Vanduul packs outmaneuvered the bogged down 2nd fleet. In an attempt to stem the tidal wave of destruction heading toward Vega II, the brigade held its own against seemingly endless waves of Vanduul fighters for over an hour until relief arrived.

(Aftermath of Vega and current standing)
After the battle of Vega, Trident was tasked with patrolling systems bordering the Vanduul. Here it saw a few minor skirmishes, mostly with small bands of pirates. Following the dissolution of its RSI/UEEN contracts, the brigade has since become a free-lance “expeditionary” mercenary fleet, working with the likes of the esteemed ITC (Interstellar Trading Company), the CDF (Civilian Defense Force) and the infamous 13th Armada, Trident now offers its services to private militaries and established organizations across the verse.

SERVICES~

Trident offers many services associated with all standard operating PMCs. From scouting, to security ops, to escorting. But its main focus is on the establishment of FOB’s (forward operating bases) and infiltration of enemy bases for larger organizations and private militaries. Whether you’re an industrial crew looking to scout an area for a base/ and or build one, or need a pesky enemy org base raided. Trident will get the job done. Small unit tactics are the name of our game.

Although we have a main goal in mind, we will not be beholden to that one thing. We hope to keep gameplay fresh by participating in verse wide and org organized events and a variety of offered services. From fleet battles, org wars, and standard mercenary work. Trident hopes to fight on all fronts.

No matter your calling, there is a place for you in the fleet. Structured into three main branches (the TRIDENT) the brigade offers opportunities to participate a wide range of activities.

THE TRIDENT DOCTRINE~

Logistics and research division~

The logistics team is an all-encompassing do it all group of hardworking men and women. These members are the lifeline of productivity in the org.

• Constuction crew: experts at building in hostile, contested zones
• Resource Procurement/management: miners, salvagers, and traders tasked with supply procurement and management
• Engineering: master mechanics and technicians keep all vehicles running at maximum efficiency

Marines~

Trident’s feared and respected operatives trained by the renown 13th Armada. Elite soldiers tasked with all things ground combat. Experts at rapid deployment in highly contested zones and covert operations. These brave men and women take the fight to the enemy with ground vehicles, small arms tactics, and unyielding tenacity. Backed by a famed, highly trained and combat hardened medical team, Trident Operators are second to none.

• 1st armored battalion: “Ironsides”- wielding the fearsome Nova tank, the Ironsides assault enemy positions with terrifying firepower
• 1st Marine Battalion: “The Pathfinders”- the venerable shock troops of the trident brigade, first in the fight and last to leave
• Pararescue Team: “Archangels”- first class combat medics that keep the brigade’s marines in the fight
• Special Reconnaissance Battalion: the elite operatives of the brigade, experts at covert infiltrations and scouting operations

Fleet~

The Backbone of the brigade.
As stated, Trident was contracted with RSI during its time with the UEEN but has since adopted a few aegis dynamics ships through temporary contracts. Our troop transport pilots get our ground forces in the fight safely, and quickly. With the famed “ HMS Poseidon 1” Polaris corvette at its head, and an elite fighter squadron (nicknamed “Hellhounds”), and multitude of support ships, Trident offers a daunting presence in the sky.

BENEFITS?~

Trident’s hopes and dreams are to create a community of likeminded friends to explore the verse with. Whether you’re a casual weekender or a die-hard dedicated citizen, we hope to make any and all feel at home with us. Above all our main goal is to form a welcoming and supportive team that has one thing in mind, enjoying the game. Role-players and non role-players are all welcome! We hope to cater to all types of citizens. Our aim is to make an immersive environment for those who do wish to roleplay, and not bog down those that don’t.

Although admittedly currently limited, becoming an operative gives you the chance to participate in a wide range of activities with friends at your side. We hope to organize weekly operations both large scale, and small.

Again, admittedly limited right now, but joining the brigade it gives you the opportunity to use all resources at the org’s disposal. As we grow, we hope this pool of resources will as well. From ships, to UEC. One of our goals is to be able to have a deep resource pool to draw from and as an operative, you will have full access to this as well.
