Dissident Fleet

A name given to a faction of the Last Armada that didn’t want to stop in the Demon Cluster, instead choosing to press onward to spinward, following the edge of the Great Void.

Description / Specifications

The Dissident Fleet is an important element in the Mythology of Lon Beon.

Despite the problems that would be caused to those who had decided to remain within the Distant Fringe, the Dissidents were given the best of the remaining starships in order to improve their chances of success. The last recorded contact with the Dissident Fleet was in 2257AD.

Their complement of starships included:

• Scouts
