Mortar Boy Legion

Before political tensions mounted to their present point and military conflict was inevitable, an elite officer of E.D.E.Ns Mechanized forces Colonel, Torrance Tyler founded the Mortar Boy Legion. Founded on the principles of creating the “Peoples Army” and that E.D.E.N must do more for its people, he set out to go where E.D.E.Ns already scattered forces could not adequately be deployed. Utilizing the aging expanders known as Mortar Boys the frontline fighting expander that’s been created by several divisions. Not meant as a rouge faction the Mortar Boy Legion would be a become of hope for colonized worlds that have been attacked by pirates, slavers and mercenaries as well as the Garamedri and Torva Hydax. As the Mortar Boy Legion found a home world to call there own Colony 7 also known as Mila, Colonel, Tyler assigned to various squads and ships to positions throughout the colonized worlds that were on the outskirts of human colonization. With the test run and victory over the Garamedri attack on planet Mila the Mortar Boy Legion secured a strong ally in the residents of the small world. As its new guardians the MBL would insure attacks from others will no longer occur. New manufacturing stations were built and began to mass produce the various Mortar Boys but without the flaws of the originals. Also the M.B.Ls new Flagship the Vengeance was also commissioned from Mila. Although the MBL is a new and slightly independent and virtually unknown faction, it has actually become its own division of E.D.E.N. The government of Mila had submitted an official petition to become an official division of E.D.E.N as the MBL with Colonel, Tyler being it’s head and be the Councilman Delegate of their division.

Approximately 125,000 Mortar Boys of various types have been built on Mila that make up the Mortar Boy Legion. New weapons systems, armor and internal systems have been incorporated into the newly built as well as the older models that were originally given to Colonel, Tyler by Head Councilman Nixon, who originally planned to use them for the same reasons but could not find the courage to do what was necessary to fulfill this task. The Mortar Boy Legion often divides its troops into smaller companies, platoons and squads for specific coordinated operations. There are currently four models of Mortar Boys with more designs in the works. The MBL is gaining popularity with the Outlining systems and E.D.E.N and becoming a serious threat to several pirate factions. The MBL is positioning to becoming a key player in E.D.E.N and its war. The Mortar Boy Legion grows larger and more diverse as time goes on.
Mila

Population: 16,342,221

Mila is one of the distant outer colonized worlds which is also known as Colony 7. Mila’s a small planet with what has been regarded as not much to offer but basic living, with not many technological advances. It meets the minimum requirements for decent living for some and possible capital gain for others. Mila is a planet that has been plagued by theft, slavers, pirates and now the Raxon War has also reached its steps. With the planet originally not being regarded to have much as far as minerals or usable alloys E.D.E.N never really harvested anything from the planet. However in recent years a new alloy was discovered there and has enriched properties that can aid in power and energy absorption. Another alloy was discovered that is stronger than Titanium 3. These new alloys have aided in the new economy making Mila an even greater asset.

Colonization Process:
Phase 1: Five Year Construction of the Atmosphere Modifiers on Mila.
Phase 2: Two Year Activation of the Atmosphere Modifiers.
Phase 3: Ten Year Construction of Bases and Mining of Minerals and Alloys.
Phase 4: Three Year Deployment of Atmosphere Control Satellites and Research Colonies.
Phase 5: Six Year Atmosphere Stabilization Trial Timeframe of Water and Vegetation.
Phase 6: Five Year Colony Trial Period.
Phase 7: Phase 9: Five Year Final Trial Assessment Period.
Phase 8: Three Years later Colonization completed.

Colonel, Torrance Tyler
Colonel, Tyler rose through the ranks as an ace expander pilot, primarily that of the Mortar Boy Series 1, a design in which his father Chief Expander Engineer, Roderic Tyler salvaged and brought back. The MB S-1 had became the frontline assault expander for E.D.E.N so much so that other divisions adopted its base design and modified and improved upon it. As time went on Colonel, Tyler stregically moved himself to command in hopes to aide E.D.E.N in a different way. Knowing E.D.E.Ns forces are being starched thin by the onslaughts of the Torva Hydax and Garamedri he wanted to create a true people’s army to help the colonies and worlds that aren’t division specific and don’t have the support or firepower the defend themselves from pirates let alone the Garamedri and Torva Hydax forces. After lengthy discussions with his father and friends he had his plans confirmed. His father gave him the trump sword of information needed in order to not only form his own division but begin with an inventory of Mortar Boy series 1 through 4. He prefers the MB S-1 and has a distinctive black pattern on it he prefers to get into the fight versus commanding an delegating from the bridge of a ship.
