Adapted from Human Defense Force- One Page Rules;
The humans of the Boer Sector represent a rich tapestry of diverse political entities rather than a single, unified body. Each colonial charter within the Boer Sector reflects its own distinct motives and philosophies that shape their interactions with the varied inhabitants of the sector. This diversity contributes to a complex web of relationships as different human groups navigate their unique perspectives and interests in relation to one another and the wider community.
The Human Charter is Boer's largest alliance of Human colonies and planets. Thanks to this alliance, the Charter can field large and diverse forces of infantry and vehicles suited to the situation at hand. The scattered remnants of the fleet that arrived in Boer faced many challenges to survival in the sector. The surviving colonies began to trade and aid each other, eventually aligning themselves with other powers in the sector. Yet, as some members seek to influence others, many fear that humanity will repeat the mistakes they made in their home sector.

History
Founding and Purpose
Emerging from ferroprocessing colonies on Herdis, Galactic Armaments was among the first governing corporations of human colonization in the Boer Sector. It was buttressed by the necessity of safeguarding human settlements against the myriad dangers posed by the hostile environment and the competing alien factions that laid claim to this untamed expanse. Founded by a coalition of seasoned military leaders and industrialists, the enterprise aimed to provide advanced weaponry, tactical training, and strategic support to human colonies.
Defense Charter and Responsibilities
In recognition of its expertise and resources, Galactic Armaments was granted the prestigious defense charter, empowering it to mobilize colonial militias and conscript a defense force capable of protecting member worlds. Galactic Armaments were crucial in maintaining peace and order as tensions rose among the colonies over resources and expansion. Its focus was not merely on warfare; it also dedicated efforts towards negotiation and conflict resolution to prevent outright hostilities.
Expansion and Strategic Alliances
Over the decades, Galactic Armaments successfully expanded its reach, establishing strategic alliances with various mega-corporations that arose from the successful colonies. Each partnership fortified its military capabilities while ensuring a steady supply of resources, thus allowing the company to invest in developing cutting-edge defense technologies.
Challenges and Adaptations
While following its mission, Galactic Armaments faced numerous challenges. Disputes over territorial rights and resource allocation frequently threatened the balance among human settlements. In response, the organization began hiring mercenary companies to provide flexible solutions and reduce their operational disruptions, understanding that not all conflicts could be managed through military might alone.
Current Status and Future Outlook
Today, Galactic Armaments stands as a pivotal player among the Human Colonial Charters, widely recognized for its defense innovations and commitment to protecting human interests. However, the shadow of potential separatism looms over the colonies. As smaller worlds push for autonomy and larger planets assert their influence, Galactic Armaments remains on high alert, prepared to adapt its strategies to ensure peace and stability in a fragile alliance. Its leaders are acutely aware that the stakes are high—the future of human civilization in the Boer Sector may depend on their ability to navigate the complexities of inter-colonial relations across a rapidly evolving landscape.
Charter Ancestries
Human
Humans are known for their ability to adapt and thrive in the most rigorous situations, including their mysterious exile from their homeworld. Ambitious, creative, and endlessly curious, humans maintain a robust presence in Boer Sector.
Robot
Among human charters, these intelligent constructs were developed to supplement the human labor and military forces. While rather rudementary in comparison to Autonoma developed by other species, Battle-Bots and Drones allowed relatively small prospector teams to control vast spans of territory.
Charter Features
Heritage Manufactories
