Tenth Legion

Type

Private Military Company

The Tenth Legion is a private military company (PMC) headquartered in the Argentine Republic. Evidence suggests that the Tenth Legion has been used as a proxy by the Italian government, allowing it to have plausible deniability for military operations abroad, and hiding the true casualties of Reich and Italian foreign interventions.

Known Military Assets

Alesia

The “Alesia” is a 4 kilometer long spaceport stationed in the Rammanu System of the Well of Embers. The station is estimated to be capable of housing over 35,000 personnel, which is roughly enough personnel to man two brigades, three air wings, and various other kinds of tactical units. It has been confirmed to operate a flotilla comprising at least seventeen escorts and four cruisers.

While the Alesia is officially a regional headquarters of the Tenth Legion designed to support anti-piracy operations, it’s been suspected to be providing significant support to fascist-aligned groups in the Well of Embers in order to replace communist smuggling routes through the Well with fascist ones. It is also believed to be engaged in the interception of “shadow fleets” operated by the Soviet Union as well as other powers.

Contemporary Issues

The Tenth Legion have boarded the Ular Ketawa independent station Emerald Garden in an effort to hunt down members of the anti-fascist guerilla movement Red Orchestra due to suspected ties between the Red Orchestra and communist "shadow fleets" operating in the Ular Ketawa and the Well of Embers.
