StarCorps (state of B.R.2.020)
"StarCorps" is the generic term for all of the military branches of STAR Corp. LLC. This incorporates all miltary units from normal soldiers to large interstellar dreadnaughts. StarCorps was founded in BR 2,019 by Grayde Deele, the CEO of STAR Corp. LLC, in response to increasing threats from other star systems. The main objectives of StarCorps are i.a.:
-Securing the outer borders of the STAR Corp. LLC. territories
-Gaining and keeping control of strategical and ecological valuable planets / asteroid belts / starbases etc.
-Guard and secure the trade routes in-, and outside the STAR Corp. LLC. territories
-Eliminate threats to the territories of STAR Corp. LLC. - if necessary in excess of the STAR Corp. LLC. territory borders.
An overview of the different types of units and structures. This list is not exhaustive.

StarCorps Security Guards "Advanced Combat Unit"
The lowest military ranks, one level above the police forces.
Assigned as Guards for low-security level facilities and missions.
StarCorps Soldiers
The standard troops of the StarCorps, versatile and trained higher-than-average in combat.
StarCorps Trooper Squads
The most common sight on Henndirro Galaxy`s battlefields is a whole bunch of StarCorps Troopers. These heavily armed and armoured soldiers meet most of the challenges that the Brikverse has to offer. In large numbers they can take out enemy emplacements in no time, and even take over whole planets in a matter of days. With many new threats rising and the expansion of territories, their ranks grow constantly, and StarCorps is always recruiting!
StarCorps Gatling Troopers
The Gatling Squads are more prominent on the larger battlefields, where accuracy is not as necessary as mere firepower.
StarCorps Intelligence Military Police Service (I.M.P.S.)
As the name suggests, a combination of Military Police forces and Intelligence / Secret Service. Responsible for internal investigations and collecting information about possible threats. Also the jurisdiction for all military incidents.
StarCorps Ceremonial Officers
These high-ranked, retired veterans participate in official acts of state, receptions or advancements.
StarCorps General Hannibal Starker McSteel
The first Officer ever to receive the rank of General was Hannibal McSteel, as he led his troops cunningly and skilled through the very first battles of StarCorps.
StarCorps Diplomats
The diplomatic agents of StarCorps are highly trained in rhetoric and business informatics, so they can either make a good point or a good offer.
StarCorps Valkyries
The tradition of all-female Elite Soldiers goes way back to the days before StarCorps was founded. These women have the hardest trainings and excel in nearly all disciplines, and they are renown amongst friend and foe for their unerring combat style.
StarCorps Mobile Armoured Combat Suit (M.A.C.S.) Mark IV
The M.A.C.S. is a small, agile mech for one pilot. It is considerably smaller than the Titan, but much easier to deploy even in large groups, and also cheaper in production. It has turned out to be highly effective against groups of enemy soldiers, yet has still problems with armoured vehicles. Therefore they are most commonly assigned at least one larger Mech for backup.
StarCorps Titan Walker
StarCorps still lacks of basic tanks, but their engineers are experts in building mechanized walkers. The Titan is a superior armoured walker with one pilot. It is slower than a tracked vehicle, yet compensates for this with better overview and firepower.
StarCorps Behemoth Heavy Walker
Following the success of the numerous other mech designs, StarCorps wanted a real autonomous war machine, and the Behemoth more than fulfills this role. A high towering, heavy armored mobile platform with versatile armament, enough to take out a whole medium-sized base on its own. Still in experimental phase, it´s propably subject to minor changes in the near future, but reports from the last few test missions speak for a phenomenal success of this project.
StarCorps Combat Trike
For combat on easy terrain, a small vehicle was engineered to get small squads of troops moved very quickly. One driver - usually a full-armored trooper - and one passenger can traverse long distances in no time. Armed with two detachable heavy cannons and a small rocket launcher.
StarCorps Combat Quad
A little bit bigger than the Combat Trike and with slightly more storage / passenger capacity, these four-wheeled vehicles are a good supplement to the Trikes, and they are often found on the same battlefields. Mainly used for supporting bigger units or fast-paced missions. Equipped with a long-range gun and a small rocket pod.
StarCorps Phalanx APC
This versatile transport is a joint-venture of M-Throne and StarCorps engineers, who met for an exchange of experience on how to get large quantities of troops quickly to the battlefield. It is available in several configurations for any purpose. Shown here is the variant with anti-aircraft turret and dual machine guns.
StarCorps Heron Dropship
The military transport ship is mainly used to relocate large amounts of soldiers and equipment in the shown container unit.
Yet it can also be refitted to carry a Phalanx APC or even two Titan walkers to the battlefield.
StarCorps Diplomatic Cruiser
This type of large space limousine is used by diplomats to travel to conferences, negotiations and business meetings, within the borders of the Henndirro Galaxy, but recently also beyond that.
StarCorps Battlefleet Horizon
The first and foremost fleet that brings StarCorps troops to the numerous battlefields in the Hendirro Galaxy and beyond. Currently consists of 5 Battlecruisers and 1 Support Frigate.
StarCorps Barracks
This rather plain structure is designed to accommodate and train up to 32 infantry units. It can be established on nearly any planetary surface in short time.
StarCorps standard base layout
When gaining control of a new planet, StarCorps usually establishes a permanent base to secure the position, and to gather new resources and recruits. Top left to right we have Barracks, Communication Outpost, HQ, below that the Repair Bay and the Hospital, on the right the Starport and 3 Power Plants in the front.
