The UAA is very popular with the oppressed south-west coastal farmers and working class, these regions are ruled by a vicious warlord known as Dreklar the butcher, he carried out massacres of Drenik villages, a truly vile man. The UAA has 13 assassins take up positions around the city of Gundarlag where he is set to drive through, the first assassin throws a smoke grenade into the car, Dreklar rushes out of the car…straight in front of the assassins who shoot him in the leg and then stab him to death, no one stops them, instead a crowd gathers cheering them as heroes. The UAA has seized large swathes of the south. The UAA has two distinct parts: The UA Army which is a small conventional force of pretty mediocre troops, they have no navy which puts them at a disadvantage to the imperial army which has a large navy, the only properly modernised part of the official armed forces. The Karllengen are a gigantic force of guerrilla troops who utilise the jagged southern landscape to ambush imperial forces. They are organised into groups of 30 men and live off the land independent of supply chains. The Karllengen range from elite sniper squads with officers and their official uniform (seen on the officer) to peasant bands (as seen in the irregular) the only way to identify a Karllengen is by their red coats…which has lead to many random people being shot making the empire look stupid and bloodthirsty, fuelling the UAA.
