== History & Background ([[Dossier]]) ==
Because of the bad reputation for safety of its chemical/biological warfare division, the firm is not well liked in many regions, even though all of SuSAG's dangerous manufacturing plants and experimental stations are located on remote, uninhabited planetoids -- since the disaster at [[Irshe (world)|Irshe]] in 443.
* Since sabotage of its plants is widespread, and its products extremely valuable, the firm maintains a large paramilitary security force, equipped to tech level 12-14 standards.
* SuSAG was founded in [[252]] by Gustav [[Schunamann family|Schunamann]], financed from royalties received for his purification process for various [[psi-drug]]s, and using the shell of a bankrupt Sylean firm (hence the archaic AG in its name). 
* With the [[Psionics Suppressions]] in 800, psi drugs were declared illegal, all plants engaged in their manufacture within the Imperium closed, and all stocks confiscated and destroyed. 
* Fortunately for SuSAG, the firm had by then expanded into other operations, and although badly damaged, managed to survive and prosper. 
* SuSAG often engages in clandestine military ventures (using mercenary units) to protect their extra-Imperial interests.

  |content=The surviving Post-[[Collapse]] part of SuSAG has an equally spectacled past, with run-ins with [[Regency]] and [[Spinward Hinter]] governments over smuggling, production of contraband and illegal materials, and often boorish behavior by its management and private security services. In recent decades the company has been hurt by increasing competition; a failure to adjust to new technology and fund basic R&D has caused its profits and market share to slip, and its dominance has been eclipsed by rivals like [[General Mechanics]] and [[Sternmetal Horizons]]. The company maintains its headquarters at [[Glisten (world)|Glisten]], and regional headquarters at [[Pretoria (world)|Pretoria]], [[Pikha (world)|Pikha]] and [[Neumann (world)|Neumann]].

== Worlds & Sectors ([[Astrography]]) ==

===Alpha Crucis Sector===
''SuSAG'' owns the world of [[Phaedrus (world)|Phaedrus]], and operates an underwater science station on the planet, identified as Research Facility 33. 

===Reaver's Deep Sector===
''SuSAG'' maintains a regional headquarters on [[St. George (RD 2616) (world)|St. George]]. Although it has relatively few operations in the region, the megacorporation is carefully assessing independent worlds for natural products and potential markets. On [[Daken (world)|Daken]], an independent world, ''SuSAG'' is investigating [[goldsand]], a desert lifeform similar to Terran corals with potential pharmaceutical uses. 

===Spinward Marches Sector===
''SuSAG'' has an agreement with the government of [[Tarsus (SM 1138) (world)|Tarsus]], established in 860, to maintain a base on the north polar cap of Rond, the planet's moon. ''SuSAG'' pays an annual lease fee of MCr2.5 for its landhold. The ''SuSAG'' base is private, and fully marked with warnings and sensors against intrusion. No provision is made for landings at the base by non-''SuSAG'' vessels.
