HISTORICAL INFORMATION
Formed as part of the post-Byss reformation of the Galactic Alliance ground forces, the Standard Infantry Squad reflects the modern Alliance's emphasis on flexible, modular warfare. Composed of volunteer soldiers from across the member systems, these squads are issued uniform equipment and training but adapt quickly to local conditions. While lacking the flair of elite commandos or Jedi strike teams, they are the spine of every major planetary operation.
- Intent: To provide a standardized, plug-and-play Galactic Alliance infantry squad that reflects the full capabilities of GA equipment for any GA writer to use in faction threads, battles, and warposts.
- Image Credit: N/A
- Role: Core combined‑arms infantry for urban and planetary warfare—capable of independent action and integration with heavier assets.
- Permissions: all factory items sourced with permission from GA War Manifest for Galactic Alliance Defence Force purposes.
