Territory Nouveau 23: Battleplan

Cast-offs, discardeds, discharges, and deserters.
People Terra Cassavander believed the Jovian Lunar Commonwealth had done a disservice. Treating them like nothing more than more meat for the grinder. People the Commonwealth had abandoned. Some more literally than others.
Cassavander had been the leader of the Commonwealth’s 5th Rifle Division before his desertion. The 5th were a decorated and accoladed unit, a feather in the Commonwealth’s cap, until he and a close group of confidantes had taken the bridge of the division’s flagship and burned hard for the asteroid fields.
By the time every loyalist on-board had been dealt with, Jovian High Command had all but erased the 5th Rifles from the records. Every grand deed, every friend Terra had ever lost in pointless, fruitless conflict lost to history. To this day the unit has not been reformed, out of resentment for his disloyalty.Hadn’t stopped the steady stream of Jovian deserters who found their way into his employ.
As far as he was concerned, anyone smart enough to escape the orbit of the Commonwealth before they ended up dead was good enough for his 5th Rifles.

In today’s episode, the crew of the Vehement have a meeting of the minds with a who’s who of the Territory’s best mercenary companies. As the situation becomes clearer, how much more risky will Torvald’s plan prove to be? We encounter old enemies, encounter old friends, and have possibly one of the greatest discussions of all time.
