Rimsenal - Enhanced Federation Auxillary Corps
This is a simple submod of Rimsenal's Federation Faction, one of my favorite faction mods, that was inspired by the Royalty Empire Rework.
This is a simple submod of Rimsenal's Federation Faction, one of my favorite faction mods, that was inspired by the Royalty Empire Rework. All that this currently changes are the FPC conscripted auxiliary pawns that the Federation first send at you and use to bulk their raids up, fleshing them out with equipment as befitting cannon fodder of the remnants of a great, tyrannical space empire instead of just jumpsuits and cheap melee weapons. This makes the Federation harder to fight, especially in the early game, but you can get some spacer tier equipment that's great against conventional enemies and a decent source of foerum early on. A few new specialist auxiliaries have been added as well.
Currently, they wear their own auxiliary armor that's visually the same as Unity Guard armor (for now), and may spawn in with Crucible Batons, Carbines, or their Auxiliary Pistols. Despite all this good gear, they are still auxiliaries, and many are not skillful combatants. Unity Guard armor has a resistance of 110% to penetrating sources, meanwhile an average quality Auxiliary Cuirass has about 65%. With the jumpsuit underneath the total penetration resistance on an average quality cuirass is going to be ~80%.
The specialist roles right now are a rifleman and CQC auxiliary, though they do not spawn in raids as of yet.
In the near future I may work on some unique equipment that's made specifically for these guys, though despite that I cannot promise to keep this updated consistently; anyone can feel free to make a continued version of this.

All the assets from Rimsenal as seen in this submod were made by rooki12k. All I did was move some of their stuff around in an xml file. None of these assets are included and relies on the original Rimsenal Federation Faction mod to function.
