History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
Solomani Security keeps a close eye on activities within the Jurisdiction to ensure the security of the Confederation and the well-being of its loyal citizens. Almost anyone could be a SolSec informant, passing on all sorts of useful information: some gain a reward or benefit for their actions, others are coerced, while a few see it as an act of duty to help protect the Solomani state and its interests.
- Agents acting on behalf of the Jurisdiction do what they can to monitor SolSec activity and counter anything against the state's interests.
Security & Defense[edit]
There are three Exploration Bases, two Naval Bases, and a single major Military Base. The boatyards at Hanlon build a variety of attack boats representing the interests of various nations from this planet. For the good of the entire Jurisdiction these system defense forces are "nationalized" and commissioned as war-fighting vessels. They are transported by fleet tenders, which are mostly manufactured the shipyards of the Trita Brotherhood, though a few are Solomani Confederation military surplus vessels. These were obtained as part of military treaties and handed over as foreign aid packages in order to curry favor.
The Fleet[edit]
The two fleet transport and logistics squadrons are headquartered at the naval bases on Emelia and Tea'ua:
Emelia CruRon, under Commodore Havel Norwich Drecker:
Tea'ua CruRon, under Vice Admiral Aiden Fernandez:
Over the years, the six major nations on Hanlon have produced several classes of TL–10 system defense boats. Some of the more famous or notorious models include:
- 300 dTon B-46 class Attack Torpedo Boat
- 90 dTon Zu-99 class Ground Assault Craft
- 30 ton Delta 7 class Space Superiority Fleet Fighter
The nations of Hanlon share these ships and their crews for the collective good of the realm and its ongoing defense.
The Trita Brotherhood is the closest polity and has an excellent relationship with the Jurisdiction. The Brotherhood is eager to trade Jurisdiction raw materials for its advanced goods and commodities.
