Goals (Mission)
Resistance to Jaibok occupation within Siridor Subsector is continuous, with armed insurgencies against Korsumug control receiving covert support, principally from the Sorority of Hygiea. The Fleet, acting on behalf of the Empire, defends against the insurgency, keeps the peace, guarantees interstellar trade, and inflicts harsh reprisals against wrong-doers.
- The Glorious Triumph Fleet is the ultimate representative of Korsumug authority in the region.
- Fleet Admiral Karrak, the commander of the Fleet, is the Korsumug military governor.
- The Fleet is charged with retaining control of its designated area and conducting offensive operations against enemies.
- A significant proportion of the Jaibok forces within the region are heavily committed just holding down those parts under their domination.
- Raiding, patrolling, defense, and support are ongoing, with frequent clashes between the various sides.
- The fleet is preparing to defend the areas of Vardin Space that it controls against a likely invasion.

Strategy & Doctrine (Operations)
Raiding
Raids are long-range missions against enemy worlds. Raiders generally jump into a remote part of an enemy-controlled system, assemble at a pre-arranged rendezvous, and refuel. Once sufficient ships are ready they accelerate to their intended target, launch their attack, and then jump clear of danger.
- Raids are conducted to damage or destroy merchant shipping, to disrupt commerce and industry, and to reduce enemy forces.
- Some raids may land troops to carry out specific missions. These soldiers often have little chance of survival.
- Successful raids earn the Jaibok crews spectacular glory and reputation.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Marker | Name | Role | Leader | Remarks | Quality | Typical Ship Types |
|
Arragh's Group | Raiders | Admiral Arragh | Led by a Jaibok with a fearsome and bloodthirsty reputation, Arragh's Group conduct large-scale raids against the Sorority of Hygiea. They are equipped with modern Jump-3 vessels and are disciplined and well organized. | Good | KE9c Unleashed KE11c Ancestor KE10c Gravid |
|
Iridium Horde | Raiders | Grand Commodore Eraghur |

They are disciplined and well led but their morale is generally low. | Average | KE10c Rapacious KE12c Sarash |
