There are four warring factions in Solar Civil War, each based separately on Earth, Mars, Venus and Pluto. Each faction has their own
strengths, weaknesses, construction styles, politics and even specialized units and vehicles. In this list, you will find detailed information
on each faction. The list will order each faction by total military power.
Note: If a faction has more than one nickname, the first nickname is the official abbreviation. Anything else is just slang.
Name: Earth United Confederate Navy
Nickname: EUCN, Confeds, The Navy
Location: Earth, Earths Moon, Beta Station
Total Population: Over 10 billion citizens residing in EUCN space.
Faction Strengths: The EUCN has the highest population, resulting in the largest military force. It also has the largest expanse of research development infrastructure
which allows the EUCN to release technological improvements far more often.
Faction Weaknesses: Having the largest population means having to deal with the most war activists. Protesters in the streets have frequently shut down weapons
plants, and in an effort to calm them, weapons have been officially downsized. Weapons are not as powerful as they used to be.
Construction Style: Buildings world-wide are very identical to modern (real) US buildings with a range of differences that usually depend on the size of the
building. Small buildings, such as apartments, are constructed more with glass than concrete, such as the skyscrapers of today, while very large buildings only
have larger foundations for more stability. Civilian vehicles don't exist on the ground anymore. Citizens use high-speed "Electro-Rail" transit systems to get around
large areas. Citizens are also usually legal owners and pilots of small aircraft such as unarmed fighters. Military Vehicles
History: The EUCN was founded after World War III as a replacement to the United Nations in 2037. With the EUCN as the leading power in international stability, they
instated new peace-keeping policies that led to the joining of most of the countries of the world. For the rest of the century, war was non-existent.
Name: Silgans of Martian Religion
Nickname: Silgans, Zealots, Martians
Location: Mars, Phobos, Deimos
Total Population: 6 Billion
Faction Strengths: The fact that nearly all Silgans are strongly religious makes them very tough in battle. The vast number of Martian relics found in Olympus Mons also
gives them great technology when a relic is properly studied. Much of this technology is coupled with human tech to create unimaginable weapons.
Faction Weaknesses: Silgans are strong for their religion, but ignorant as well. They often become disorganized in a fight. Mars is the planet closest to the Asteroid Belt,
making it vulnerable to meteor strikes on the surface and in space. Each meteor has a chance of destroying something.
Name: Zarref Tribal Warriors
Nickname: Zarrefs, Tribal morons, Degenerates
Location: Venus
Total Population: 1 Billion
Faction Strengths: The sulfuric acid on the surface of Venus makes an excellent weapon when refined. Miner platforms floating in the lower atmosphere take acid directly
from the air and refine it into a liquid substance. This is used as the primary weapon on Zarref land vehicles. Life on Venus has also made them unbelievably agressive
people. Zarrefs are often seen as degenerates because of their agressiveness and brutality.
Faction Weaknesses: Sulfuric acid can be made into a powerful weapon, but it is also an extreme risk for vehicles, the occupants and civillians. Acid storage canisters are
extremely combustible, can be easily broken, and are very heavily pressurized, meaning if a can breaks, it sprays EVERYWHERE! And it's not just dangerous in a vehicle.
The dangerous nature of Venus prevents the expanding of colonies on the surface. The only thing capable of operating outside a Zarref colony bubble is a Drone, and
they are in very low supply.
Name: Connagans of the Frozen Plain
Nickname: Connagans, Con-men, Eskimos, Diamond Diggers
Location: Pluto
Total Population: 3 Million
Faction Strengths: The only true strength of the Connagans would be the crystals they dig up. These crystals have an ethereal quality that can enhance beams of light,
making them brighter and stronger. When the crystals are put into a beam weapon, the beam becomes focused and the power output is tripled.
Faction Weaknesses: The entire world of Pluto only holds 3 million people, nowhere near enough to host a capable army. The Connagans are officially forced to stand
aside as a bystander faction, but unofficially the government hires mercenaries and trades Light Crystals for protection.
