The *Howlert* was part of the Ruhar 7th Fleet under Admiral Kune's command and tasked with supporting the Alien Legion above Stiglord (Squidworld).
The dubious honor of being the first assault carrier in the second wave went to the *Howlert*. She was burdened with two battalions of Achakai soldiers, twenty-four hundred fanatical warriors who were eager to get into the fight. The Ruhar crew of the *Howlert* were less eager to be the first ship to jump in for the second wave, but their opinion was not solicited by Admiral Kune. What he knew was that his counterpart Admiral Kekrando wanted the *Howlert* to go first, and Kekrando had volunteered his entire fleet to escort the assault carrier.
The *Howlert* jumped precisely on a revised schedule, accompanied by two Ruhar frigates. The frigates had been assigned because Admiral Kune lacked confidence in the Achakai's abilities to fly and fight their ships at the same time, if they encountered a combat situation. With two 7th Fleet frigates above, formations of Achakai warships both above and below, and the battleships feeding sensor data, the Howlert’s crew did not need to wait for their own sensors to recover from the spatial distortion of the jump wormhole.
Landing the two battalions required twelve medium-lift Dodo dropships of the type that humans called ‘Dodos’ and eight of the Whale heavy-lifters. Add eighteen ‘Vulture’ gunships as escorts, and the Howlert’s launchers spit out thirty-eight spacecraft rapidly, so rapidly that the ship had to be careful about adjusting to the sudden loss of mass that would change its center of gravity.
Ten gunships were first to launch, spreading out to provide coverage for the troop-carrying dropships launching right behind them. Clouds of decoy drones were ejected by the assault carrier and the two frigates, filling the sky with sensor-jamming electromagnetic interference, and projecting holograms that gave each of them the appearance of dropships. The launch operation proceeded exactly as planned, and soon the Howlert’s launch bays were empty. After the dropships were away, the *Howlert* began clawing its way up to jump altitude while launching cargo pods.
Above the *Howlert* and above the upper formation of Achakai warships, a twisted tear in spacetime appeared in a burst of gamma radiation, and a Bosphuraq light cruiser suddenly emerged from nowhere. At the same time, a pair of Bosphuraq destroyers emerged in the middle of a formation of three Ruhar battleships, and began launching missiles even before their sensors had fully reset. The Bosphuraq light cruiser was battering the sheilds of the *Howlert*.
The three hundred crew of the *Howlert* were sacrificed in order to protect the dropships.

Senior Colonel Chang Kong is one of the main two publicity stunts completed by the United Nations Expeditionary Force (UNEF) on Paradise, the other being Colonel Joseph Bishop.
Chang was originally promoted to Lieutenant Colonel for defending a warehouse that the Ruhar wanted to retake the first time they attempted to retake Paradise. He was not promoted to Colonel as Joe was because he lost the only son of a high ranking Chinese official.
He was also imprisoned by the Kristang at the same time as Joe, Fal Desai, and Margaret Adams for refusing to murder innocent Ruhar.
After being broken out of his cell and then re-detained by the Ruhar He followed Joe to the stars and back to Earth on the basis that Joe is Lucky. Chang was Joe's Executive Officer (XO) aboard the Flying Dutchman until the Renegades mission when he was detained by his government.
He was also the military officer in charge of the Beta-Site group on Avalon and subsequently took command of the Flying Dutchman after the Valkyrie was acquired.
During the events of Brushfire, he was promoted to Senior Colonel (Brigadier General equivalent) and is the UN Secretary of Homeworld Security.
During the events of Breakaway, he re-assumed command of the Flying Dutchman.

Ecuador Space Elevator

Ecuador Space Elevator

Location
Mount Chimborazo, Ecuador, Earth

Appears in
ExForce 1: Columbus Day

The Space Elevator was placed on top of Mount Chimborazo in Ecuador. The space elevator on Earth was provided by the Thuranin to the Kristang to transport troops to orbit. The space elevator is a no-frills contraption, designed to transport a maximum number of troops in a minimum amount of time.

Base Station
The main base station was constructed on the top of Mount Chimborazo in Ecuador, It was built in less than a month once the UN agreed to provide troops to the Kristang.
The reason it was built there was because it "straddles" the equator. The base station contains the main fusion reactor.
The Fusion reactor powers the entire elevator.

Transit is undertaken in a disc shaped elevator car, it is described to be like a waiting lounge in an airport but with four levels.
* Level 1 was machinery out of bounds to Humans.
* Level 2, 3 , 4 were available to humans each had a kitchen.

The Habitable levels were divided up and contained rows of thinly padded chairs. Each of the chairs had a seatbelt, it's noted that the Kristang weren't big on comfort on this journey, It was designed for the maximum number of troops in the smallest time and had a capacity of 5,000 troops.
The elevator car is equipped with defense lasers.
The transit takes about nine hours to complete.

Thousands of miles above the base station there is a space station in a geosynchronous orbit. Joe Bishop describes the first thing he notice about the space elevator was a ribbon of white light.
The two parts of the station were only connected by a thin magnetic field, in contrast the Ruhar space elevator uses a hair thick cable.
Under the Kristang's orders, weapons were not allowed on the elevator.
The space station had artificial gravity which worked at roughly 85% of normal. It was constructed quickly as the Thuranin transported it in sections.

Rahkarsh Diweln / Rikers

Occupying Species:
Kristang

Notable Features:
Earth-like

Rakesh Diwalen, also known as Rahkarsh Diweln and referred to as Rikers by the Merry Band of Pirates, is a Kristang planet featured in Valkyrie, Critical Mass and Brushfire.
The Kristang kidnapped several hundred humans (mostly children) to Rikers to use for bioweapons testing and implementation. The humans were on two islands, far from the population centers of the planet. The entire world only has a population of less than one million. About five hundred of them were brought to the planet, there were one hundred and eighty two humans still alive on Rakesh Diwalen when the Merry Band of Pirates went to rescue them.
The Pirates were in the Rakesh Diwalen star system when Skippy the Magnificent disappeared and both Valkyrie and the Flying Dutchman were dead in space. Colonel Joseph Bishop, aboard a defenseless Dragon dropship, was captured by the Thuranin, held on the ship for three days and then taken back to Rikers. The Thuranin experimented on and interrogated him in a Kristang hospital. When Skippy returned, he helped Joe escape the hospital and destroys the Thuranin ship in orbit. The Commandos rescued Joe while the STAR team attempted to capture two Thuranin. Before Valkyrie was repaired, a Thuranin frigate attacked it, believing it was the Bosphuraq *Ghost Ship*.
The Rindhalu and Maxolhx had become interested in Rakesh Diwalen due to the Thuranin witnessing the *Ghost Ship* and, in a joint mission, they travel to Rakesh Diwalen to investigate.
The Pirates, aboard Valkyrie, returned to Rikers to send a message to the Kristang (especially, the Fire Dragon clan), Thuranin and Maxolhx that any abuse of humans, past, present or future, would not be tolerated. The Pirates destroyed all military and experimental assets on the surface, sparing all civilian areas. After the planet-wide destruction, they also instructed one of the Fire Dragon clan leaders that they were leaving stealthed satellites in orbit to keep an eye on things and that they must leave the two islands that they held the kidnapped humans on alone because their were graves were not to be desecrated.

History
The planet was controlled by the White Wind clan of the Kristang until they were destroyed and their assets absorbed by the Fire Dragon clan, at which point control of the planet was transferred to them, leading to tension between the Fire Dragon administrator and the White Wind guards.

Climate
The biosphere of Rikers is somewhat compatible with human life. The planet appears to have an Earth-like climate, with tropical areas by the equator and colder areas approaching the poles. It also has regular rain and cold, etc.

Wurgalan

Notable Features:
Very thin atmosphere

Barsoom is the 4th Planet in a yellow dwarf star system located in Wurgalan/Bosphuraq space and is currently occupied by the Wurgalan after the Bosphuraq seized it from the Kristang. It currently has a small Military outpost and a Habitation dome that covers an Elder site.
Barsoom has less gravity than Earth and is currently uninhabitable without sealed and pressurized buildings. This is because its atmosphere is extremely thin. Unlike similar planets like Mars, Barsoom has a strong magnetic field that helps repel solar wind particles that could slowly strip away an atmosphere.
Joe Bishop chooses the name because, in the Edgar Rice Burroughs novel John Carter of Mars, the local residents of Mars call it Barsoom.

Millions of years ago, Barsoom had a pleasant climate with abundant life. Oceans covered half of the surface. It was also home to many large Elder facilities.
90-130 Million years ago while the Elders still inhabited the galaxy, Barsoom was subjected to a massive focused solar flare (Technology that is only currently available to a Sentinel) that stripped away most of the atmosphere. At about the same time, large segments of the surface where Elder sites were located were scooped into another dimension. Following that, any remnants were obliterated by Relativistic Impactors.
Roughly one hundred million years later Barsoom was discovered by the Maxolhx and all Elder devices of note were salvaged. However, the star system was not colonized because of its distance from the Wormhole Network. When the network shifted, the Kristang took control of the system. Later, during a dispute between the Thuranin and the Bosphuraq, the Kristang were persuaded to give up the system by the means of 3 Bosphuraq Battleships.

Higher Spacetime

Higher Spacetime is a term used to describe extra dimension(s) of the Universe in which the laws of Physics operate differently to the local spacetime that humans perceive. The exploitation of higher spacetime is a characteristic of a lot of Elder Technology. None of the current starfaring species of the Milky Way, including senior species like the Rindhalu, possess the technical capability to manipulate higher spacetime, and therefore much of the technology created by the Elders remains out of their reach.

## Technology that utilises Higher Spacetime

While the benefits the Elders gained from utilising Higher Spacetime for their technology is not explicitly made clear, the assumption is that things like computational power, data storage, longevity of components, communication speed and energy efficiency are all greatly enhanced in higher spacetime.

* Elder AIs such as Skippy have most of their presence in higher spacetime, with their physical cannisters acting as an "anchor" to local spacetime. Skippy requires this access to higher spacetime to demonstrate some of his more impressive capabilities, such as the creation of micro-wormholes and the flattening of local spacetime
* The Sentinels are mainly located in higher spacetime, only entering local spacetime to perform an attack
* The AIs that control the Wormhole network are located in higher spacetime
* The "password protected" Wormhole in the Sculptor Dwarf Galaxy requires an activation code to be transmitted via higher spacetime
* Elder devices such as the Guardians and Wormhole controller modules communicate via higher spacetime
* Elder Comm. Nodes are devices that allow communication via higher spacetime
* The Galactic Shield is powered with energy transferred via higher spacetime through the Wormhole network
* Elder Power Taps draw power from higher spacetime

## Characteristics of Higher Spacetime

The energy that permeates higher spacetime can be drawn into local spacetime and exploited

The physical characteristics of an object are very different in higher spacetime than in three-dimensional normal spacetime. When Sentinels emerge into local spacetime, they are vast (several kilometres long) and have tentacles; Skippy explains to Joe Bishop that this is just how they physically manifest in local spacetime, not what they are like in higher spacetime. When Sentinels do emerge into local spacetime, their physical structure is composed of basic elements, such that a dead Sentinel cannot be scavenged by lower species for advanced Elder technology. Skippy explains if he were to lose containment and his full presence was to emerge into local spacetime, he would occupy an area the size of a small planet.

Movement through higher spacetime does not map directly with the corresponding motion through local spacetime. When Joe and Skippy are trying to determine the probable destination of a Sentinel, Skippy explains that the apparently random patterns of the attacks actually represented a straight line through higher spacetime.

The flow of Time is different in higher spacetime than how it is perceived in local spacetime.

Notable Features:
Extremely elliptical orbit.

Slingshot is a planet in a
The Flying Dutchman had jumped in way outside the Slingshot system, with its jump signature tuned to look like a Maxolhx ship. They were in the Kuiper Belt of the star system, waiting for Skippy the Magnificent to hack into a Maxolhx sensor network that surrounded the star. Samantha Reed, Wu Jinhai and Joseph Bishop flew toward the star in a Panther dropship with Skippy, and parked it in the exact spot Skippy said they needed to be. Exact, like, within three centimeters of an imaginary line Skippy thought was the location of a tightbeam transmission path from one of the sensor satellites way out on the dark, icy edge of the system, and a network node on a space station in orbit only a couple of million miles from the star.
Slingshot's orbit, instead of being nicely circular, the low point of its orbit was only two million miles farther from that star than Mercury was to our Sun. After racing past the star, it coasted outward farther than the orbit of Jupiter, and did it all over again. The surface of Slingshot alternately froze solid, melted as it arced inward, and briefly baked as it came too close to the star. The close approach to the star would have stripped away much of the planet’s atmosphere, except the star itself had been badly damaged in the conflict. Originally a yellow dwarf like our Sun, Slingshot’s star had a significant portion of its own mass blown out into space, so now it was smaller and cooler than it should have been. The surface of Slingshot had been bombarded from space in the first wave of the Maxolhx attack, but the real devastation was caused by the Sentinels. They had disrupted the star, causing it to swallow the innermost planet, and creating a focused gravity wave that tore the system’s largest gas giant in half. The edges of the passing gravity wave also flipped Slingshot like a wobbling top, increasing the tilt of its axis to an extreme twenty-nine degrees.
Loss of the innermost planet, and having the gas giant turned into a sort of gassy asteroid belt, had disrupted the delicate balance of the star system. Stable orbits were thrown in wild directions, as the new configuration of gravity wells struggled to find balance against each other. The result was Slingshot being ejected into a highly elliptical orbit where it alternately froze, thawed, baked and froze again. Skippy estimated that world would ultimately settle into a circular pattern beyond the Goldilocks Zone, where it would freeze over permanently. There was also a seventeen percent chance it would collide with the remnants of the gas giant planet’s core, and be completely torn apart.
Spec Ops Teams

Spec Ops Team
The original Spec Ops team aboard the Dutchman consisted of at least 25 Military Special Forces members from several countries and branches of their military, including British Army Special Air Service (SAS), Canadian Army Snipers, French Army Paratroopers, Indian Army Paratroopers, People's Liberation Army Chinese Night Tigers, U.S. Army Rangers, U.S. Marines and U.S. Navy SEALs. The surviving members of the Spec Ops teams were folded into the STARs team.

Special Tactics Assault Regiment (STAR)

Team Leader:
Lt. Col. Jeremy Smythe

STAR
The Special Tactics Assault Regiment (STAR) team is an elite tier-one Special Forces Unit for the Merry Band of Pirates. They are commanded by Colonel Jeremy Smythe. Additional Military Special Forces members from the British Army Special Air Service (SAS), Canadian Army Snipers and Polish Army Grupa Reagowania Operacyjno-Manewrowego (GROM) joined the team. They are highly trained, highly focused and the top Spec Ops Force humans have ever had. They use modified Kristang powered armor suits and Thuranin combat robots (combots) during their operations. With the tactics they use, they have been able to successfully achieve victories against, the Kristang, the Thuranin and Maxolhx.

Notable Members

Alien Legion Commandos

Team Leader:
Commandant Fabron

Commandos
The Commandos are 18 Spec Ops Force humans who deployed to Paradise with UNEF and eventually sign on to the Alien Legion. They were "recruited" by the Merry Band of Pirates to assist in the rescue of hundreds of humans (mostly children) who were kidnapped from Earth by the Kristang to be used for testing of a bioweapon. They use the same modified Kristang powered armor suits and Thuranin combat robots (combots) during their operations as the STAR do, only they are not as proficient with them yet. The primarily serve as backup to the STARs, which irritates them to no end. Of the 18 Commandos wanting to certify for the STAR team, very few will qualify.

**Nert Dandurff** is the nephew of Chief Administrator Baturnah Logellia.
He is a young, socially awkward Ruhar cadet and gets picked on by other cadets in the Ruhar Military Academy.
Nert is assigned to the Mavericks (Emily Perkins, Irene Striebich, Derek Bonsu, Dave Czajka, Jesse Colter and Shauna Jarrett) as a Ruhar liaison.
He is reasonably fluent in English and doesn't have to rely on a translator much. Although, when speaking English, his speech pattern is such that, frequently, it makes it seem as if he's asking a question.
Nert is fascinated by Human culture and idioms, although, without the proper context, he will often use an idiom that is inappropriate. This sometimes causes Colter and Czajka (and, on occasion, Jarrett and Perkins as well) to burst out laughing. At times, when he doesn't fully understand the reason, he feels embarrassed.
He participated in the Mavericks mission to reactivate all the MASER Projectors on Paradise (during the events of ExForce 3.5: Trouble on Paradise), in which, Jarrett blew up an island.
Nert was having some degree of difficulty keeping up with his cadet lessons while at the same time fulfilling his function as the Ruhar/Human liason for the Mavericks. This raised some concern with Perkins, who was beginning to feel "motherly" towards him. He was asked if he should give up being a liaison and return to the Military Academy full time. It was decided that he would remain with the Mavericks because it provides him with more practical training.
The human members of the Mavericks are very protective of Nert and also consider him a valuable member of their team.
Nert is attracted to a fellow cadet, Jinn Gamor, who he met when the the Mavericks were assigned to the Ruh Tostella for a training mission.

Brock Steel is a Billionaire Entrepreneur/Scientist/Engineer (basically a douchier version of Elon Musk).
He is the owner of the Technology Company that built the spacecraft which towed the Yu Qishan into Earth Orbit.
Steel goes aboard the Yu Qishan with Skippy the Magnificent, starts taking it apart to reverse-engineer the Kristang technology and try to restart the reactor.
He has an awful habit of snapping his fingers while thinking or trying to solve a problem.
Skippy has a massive man-crush on Steel.
Col. Joseph Bishop doesn't like him because he's Skippy's new BFF and Joe and Skippy have a falling out because of it.
Steel is a scientific genius, but can't think up monkey-brained ideas like Joe can.
He and Skippy almost get captured by the Kristang Achakai.
Steel and Skippy are saved by Joe when Joe commandeers the Kristang troop ship, the "Ice Cold Dagger to the Heart".

Status
Destroyed

Another Kristang troop transport ship, the *Ice Cold Dagger to the Heart*, that belonged to the Blood Fang clan of the Kristang. Modified for long distance flight, it's crew was kept in hibernation until they were to be awakened by the ship's AI when they arrived at their destination. In addition to the Blood Fang clan, it also had a complement of Achakai mercenary warriors on board. It was ultimately captured by the Merry Band of Pirates during the events of Homefront and added to humanity's small fleet. The name was shortened to simply *The Dagger* when it was acquired by humanity.
Her jump drive was down when the Maxolhx Wormhole Task Force appeared at Earth.
The *Dagger* was officially renamed the *Unity* by the UN because it was easier to translate in other languages.
She was destroyed when the combined forces of the Bosphuraq and Thuranin, acting on orders from the Maxolhx, attacked UNEF headquarters in New York City, New York, USA and Geneva, Switzerland.

Jellaxico

Jellaxico

View from Space

Surface view

Nickname:
Jellybean

Occupying Species:
First, Kristang, then Ruhar

Jellaxico is an Earth-like planet, if Earth’s crust had significantly more rare metals, was larger, had thirteen percent higher gravity, and circled the local orange dwarf star on an elliptical orbit that took it from the middle to the outer edge of the habitable ‘Goldilocks’ zone. Also if the level of free oxygen was eight percent less than Earth normal.
It is a planet occupied by the Kristang, but given up to the Ruhar in negotiations. Early in the events of Freefall, the Alien Legion had been contracted to evacuate the planet. A Kristang sub-clan leader of a small village threatened to torture Keepers of the Faith as a terrorist negotiating tactic. Lt. Col. Emily Perkins of the Mavericks authorizes a railgun strike from orbit because she wanted to make the point that the Alien Legion does not negotiate with terrorists. The Mavericks call the planet "Jellybean". The planet’s capital city is Sluktashwon which the Mavericks call "Slugtown".

Jesse "Cornpone" Colter is a Staff Sergeant with the Mavericks.
He was a U.S. Army Sergeant serving with UNEF on Paradise. Prior to joining UNEF, he deployed to Nigeria with Joseph Bishop and Dave Czajka, his fellow Fire Team soldiers with the 10th Mountain Infantry Division.
He got his nickname "Cornpone" from his fire team because he spoke with a Southern U.S. drawl.
He was in Joe's Old Fire Team along with Czajka. Colter was best friends with Czajka.
On Paradise, he was in, then Sergeant, Bishop's Old Fire Team along with Czajka.
Colter and Czajka tended a farm together in the Lemuria Province on Paradise after the Ruhar re-took Gehtanu (Paradise/Pradassis) from the Kristang. They obtained the ugliest couch anyone had ever seen, but they loved it.
After Joe "disappeared" when the Ruhar re-took Gehtanu (Paradise/Pradassis) from the Kristang, Colter, Emily Perkins, Czajka and Shauna Jarrett were rounded up by the Ruhar for interrogation because of their association with Joe and to see if they knew what had happened to him.
Along with Perkins, Czajka and Jarrett, Colter is recruited by the Merry Band of Pirates posing as a group of Ruhar that Perkins calls Emby (Mysterious Benefactor) to activate Giant TerraWatt MASER Projectors under the surface of Paradise.
Colter, as with the rest of the human Mavericks, has come to care about Nert Dandurff, taking him under his wing and acting like a big brother to him.
Colter and Jarrett are in a serious romantic relationship.
Roach Motel

Roach Motel Star System

Nickname:
Hotel California

Notable Features:
System protected by a stealth field and Guardians

Also referred to as Hotel California.

A star system where ships enter but do not leave, hence the name. It is protected by a stealth field that disguises what is inside, a powerful damping field that prevents any ship from jumping out, and Guardians: powerful AI ships built by Elders to guard the system.
The Guardians sheer ships apart as soon as they enter the star system, disabling or destroying them entirely in the process. There is a vast spaceship graveyard due to this.
There is a dead Sentinel in the system that Skippy the Magnificent and Colonel Joseph Bishop travel into to locate an Elder Conduit device that Skippy can use to help him destroy the worm trying to kill him.
The star in the system has an estimated twenty two Elder power sinks in its photoshpere, seven of which Skippy had detected. The power sinks draw power from the magnetic field of the star. Four of these power sinks are used to power the stealth field around the star system, the remaining sinks are used to power the Galactic Shield.
In order to extend the life of the star, long ago, a Neptune-sized gas giant that used to orbit in the system's Kuiper Belt, was moved close to the star to replenish the hydrogen consumed during the natural fusion in the star.
The system has been visited many times by a number of Tier 1 and Tier 2 species, like the Maxolhx and Thuranin over tens of thousands of years.

**Mimi Mačiatko** je mačaci člen Pig-Bandy, "cute" a pomocné mačiatko a niekedy programátorka. Patrí medzi najobľúbenejších a najznámejších členov Pig-Bandy spolu s Kvikim.

Mimi sa darí v skoro každom Pig Evente. Má najlepší Average v Pig HC a druhá najviac killov v Pig PVP.

Mimi Mačiatko sa narodila v roku 2015 spolu s jej bratom Kockom ako dvojičky. Dostali sa do Pig-Bandy keď ich pozvala Lulu. Aj keď predtým ešte nikdy nehrala žiadne hry, v prvom Pig HC vybuchla kvôli creeperovi v prvej epizóde, rýchlo sa všetko naučila a teraz je jedna z celkovo najlepších hráčov Pig-Bandy.
