Spoiler

OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION

• Intent: To create a basic combat unit available to the Outer Rim.
• Image Credit: http://www.artofmitch.com/characters/
• Role: Rank & File infantry.
• Links: Outer Rim

GENERAL INFORMATION

• Unit Name: Outer Rim Mercs
• Affiliation: Any Outer Rim Faction who has hired them.
• Classification: Infantry
• Equipment:
  Blaster Rifle
• Vibroknife
• Armorweave clothing
• Minimal durasteel plating
  

[*]Description: The unit looks like exactly what it is: a rag-tag group that was brought together only a few days or few weeks previously. There is nothing unifying them besides their desire for credits and purpose. Some may be a part of smaller crews here and there that make up the whole.
COMBAT INFORMATION:

• Unit Size: Large (50)
• Unit Availability: Common (many, easy to replace, likely with more always in training)
• Unit Experience: Trained
• Combat Function: This unit goes wherever the action is. The members of this unit are only here for personal fortune and gain. This unit can be used like any other rank and file unit; cannon fodder, occupying force, guarding, or rushing a strategic objective. Once they've done what they were paid to do, they disperse back throughout the Outer Rim.

Strengths:

• Money Talks: These Mercenaries owe allegiance to no one and are easily available to anyone with a large sum of credits.
• Experienced: While this unit isn't the top of the line, they are not incapable of getting the job done.

Weaknesses:

• Money Talks: These Mercenaries owe allegiance to no one and are easily available to anyone with a large sum of credits. Including those who they just fought against - if the price is right.
• Mixed Bag: Some of these Mercenaries are the scum of the galaxy, they can and will commit heinous acts to get the job done if left unsupervised.

HISTORICAL INFORMATION

This unit is the loose conglomeration of the Outer Rim's most abundant military resource: Mercenaries. They follow where the money is and while they will not turn on their patron mid-battle, after the battle is over they may be persuaded to fight for the other-side if enough money is offered. Then again, Mercenaries have a reputation to not try their luck too much and will stick with the safe bet more often than not. These people can be found all over the Outer Rim in large quantities meaning that entire armies may be composed of mercenaries.

Hey there

Good sub, but I need you to fix the image. Images can be up to 1000 × 750, but yours is 750 × 1092. Once you take care of that we can stamp this along.

Additionally, I would recommend you add to the weaknesses and put something there that would be present in a PvP situation. However, this is a recommendation and not a requirement for the approval of the submission.

I'm not aware how I can change the ratio of the picture. Any suggestion on how to go about doing that?

[member="Valdus Bral"] You can save the image and then use Microsoft Paint to resize it. Alternative browser-based options exist. To upload, you can use any of the free services such as imgur, nickpic, tiny pic, etc. If you need any help please let me know

[member="Valdus Bral"] The image restriction rule has been lifted. I apologize for wasting your time. The sub is fine and is pending secondary approval. You are of course free to use it in the meantime
