HISTORICAL INFORMATION

The unit began as a concept when the New Star League Remnants started recruiting from outside the Alulan population and take in a number of Force sensitives and Force users. All members of the new unit are trained to a basic level with the Force, with a focus on telekinesis.

Established on Qena Prime, the unit was formed and trained in the arts of space combat, suitable for Zero G and airless environments. Their equipment is sourced from across the galaxy, with each unit fitted out with selected weapons and tools to suit their role.

Deployed at first in support of the QDF's naval marines, the spacetroopers quickly established a reputation for ruthless efficiency. In a short time, they were included in the official doctrine of the UGF's military as the vanguard for space combat scenarios, with the naval marines taking up a purely defensive role for which they are far more suited.

Interesting usage of Force Sensitives and marines together, not something I hear or see too often but would be pretty fun in concept at the very least!
