Loyalty, Marik-Stewart Commonwealth, 3126
Colonel Kartr maneuvered his Wolverine down out of the makeshift 'Mechbay of the Kavaliers' DropShip, the Mule-class "This Isn't My Job," and towards the garrison hangars across the tarmac. The rest of the his mixed company would be coming off of the DropShip during the next couple of hours, but for now it was just him, O'Corgley in his BattleMaster and Corporals Maeland and Konstantine in their Fulcrum IIIs as well as a platoon of battle armor sweeping the area with improved sensors.
He clicked his mic on, "Network check." Looking at a secondary screen Kartr confirmed that his C3 module was running and registering it's connection to the master computer in O'Corgley's machine. The two tank commanders quickly confirmed their connections were up as well. "We're in the green boss" O'Corgley confirmed.
"Very good. Konstantine, Maeland establish and start patrolling a perimeter, 'Corgie you're their overwatch. Coordinate with Lt. Sanderson and his 'Crunchies.'"
"WILCO. Where are you going boss?" O'Corgley's response made Kartr smile, the MechWarrior was a fellow Taurian from the Calderon Protectorate and the national disregard for rank was refreshing.
"The advanced party has a berth waiting for me in the hangar and our new employer is there watching the evolution. So look smart and pass the word, while I do the hard work." With that Kartr clicked off. This was going to be a good gig, working security for Kallon Industries grounside plant. The pay was excellent, they had an option in the contract that allowed them to take missions from the planetary government as long as the plant wasn't threatened. If everything went well he'd be able to afford another dropship, a military one this time, one of the new Seleucus-class vessels Kallon was manufacturing at the Nadir jump point. A good gig indeed, time to meet the client and start earning that paycheck!
Summary:
Due to the frequent raids between former FWL states during the first half of the 3120s, Kallon Weapon Industries decided to hire mercenaries to bolster their corporate security forces. In 3126 Kartr's Kavaliers signed a defense contract with Kallon Weapon Industries to defend the companies production plants on Loyalty in the Marik-Stewart Commonwealth.
Kallon's planetary facilities are focused mostly on producing components for the Partisan tank and Partisan AA vehicle. Given the low priority they allowed Kartr's Kavaliers to sign a subsidiary contract with the planetary militia to provide support.
