[Wolf Lord+ | Lore] Dossier: United Human Federation

Hello everyone, LunaWolve here!

Welcome to the draft release of something a little bit different for today.

I've recently been working on a bit of stuff behind the scenes in addition to the usual chapters, one of which is series of posts pertaining to the Worldbuilding aspect of TAS.

As TAS is ... VAST, to say the least, and we are unlikely to fully explore a large portion of it in the novel itself, I figured that some people might be interested in the background info for the Universe itself.

That's where the Dossier entries come in.

They'll be styled in a way that make them seem similar to in-world Dossiers stored in the archives of Terra, collected and updated by Terra's own intelligence department.

As I'm not entirely sure what particular parts you would like to see added in the Dossier entries, I've decided to release what I have prepared so far as a draft.

Please let me know if this style of content is something you'd like to see more of;
What more you'd like to see added to the individual Dossiers for each Faction;
What other, similar style of short-form posts you'd love to see (including a rundown of what should be included!)

Thanks for supporting me in writing this novel!

Formation and History:
The United Human Federation (UHF) emerged as a counter-response to the spiraling warfare engulfing the galactic bubble, a conflict that had become an insatiable maw, consuming humanity in its unending strife.

Dissatisfied with the reckless carnage perpetrated by their human counterparts, the inaugural O-13 Council proclaimed themselves as a distinct faction. This was a culmination of over a century of grassroots support and political mobilization.

Led by triad figures Aeliana Voltaire, Theron Xenios, and Titus Ignis, the nascent faction executed a violent and decisive revolution, annexing the majority of the territories belonging to their parent Faction, Humanity's Fold, which has been defunct since the coup.

Fundamental Beliefs and Doctrine:
The UHF operates on the foundational tenet that large-scale human involvement in the ongoing galactic war is unnecessary. Instead, the faction posits that efforts should be primarily directed towards the preservation of human life, while simultaneously enhancing their integrated military capabilities.

Operational Philosophy:
The faction places a high premium on the intrinsic value of individual skills and abilities. Its governing body, the O-13 Council, is composed of the most adept individuals within the faction. Contrary to its name, the Council is not limited to 13 members.

Its primary functions include task delegation to specialized departments and convening for faction-critical decision-making and strategic planning.

Galatic Political Focus:
The UHF's military and developmental efforts are primarily concentrated on Core and Inner Worlds. However, recent internal advocacy has championed the inclusion of Mid-worlds into the UHF sphere of influence.

This has materialized in the form of the first official recruitment drive for Mid-worlds initiated in a subsection of UHF-controlled space. The outcomes of this initiative are yet to be ascertained.

--- Combat Doctrine ---

Military Composition:
Contrary to other factions, the UHF's primary ground force consists exclusively of integrated soldiers, known as UHF Marines. While these Marines constitute the backbone of the UHF's military might, they are not its only asset.

The UHF Navy and UHF Armored Division deploy a diverse mix of integrated and unintegrated soldiers. This hybrid model is dictated by the logistical constraints of manning Battleships, Cruisers, and Capital Ships, as there are insufficient integrated soldiers to fulfill these roles entirely.

Ground-Based Warfare:
The UHF's modus operandi prioritizes terrestrial engagements, capitalizing on their collective experience to gain upper hand in direct confrontations. Their specialized unit, the UHF Marines, boasts a remarkably lower mortality rate when compared to other integrated forces across human-controlled territories.

Limitations and Logistics:
While the Faction Trait provides UHF Marines with substantial advantages, including decreased mortality and enhanced integration rates, the total number of integrated soldiers remains insufficient. This deficiency is attributed to persistent logistical challenges that have historically plagued the UHF.

Strategic Emphasis on Individual Skill:
Given the constraints of their military composition, which exclusively fields integrated soldiers, the UHF compensates by placing a heightened focus on individual combat proficiency. This is further augmented by their roster of "Aces," elite fighters who consistently outperform their counterparts in other factions.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Conclusion and Terran Rating:
After thorough analysis and  verification, the Terran Investigative Team assesses the United Human Front (UHF) to be a significant player in the galactic arena.

Their ideological focus on preserving human life combined with their unique Faction Trait provides them a notable edge in ground combat, despite logistical challenges and a smaller pool of integrated soldiers. Their emphasis on individual prowess and skill diversifies their tactical approach, making them a complex adversary or potential ally.

As such, the UHF is assigned the rank of #7 in the galaxy-spanning war for the privilege of leading Humanity together with the Emperor and Terra itself, beyond the bubble's existence.

This ranking signifies the UHF's robust capabilities and particularly the prowess of their individual Marines and Battlefield Aces, but also leaves room for growth and improvement, particularly in areas of logistics and broader military composition and reach.
