Sunder Military Group (SMG) was founded in 2947 by battle-hardened survivors of the Battle of Vega II—a decorated collective of United Empire of Earth (UEE) Navy veterans. The catalyst for SMG’s creation was the harrowing Battle of Vega II on October 5, 2945, where these survivors served aboard various vessels in the UEE’s 2nd Fleet during one of the most brutal Vanduul assaults in recent history. Witnessing the devastation and the valiant, yet often outnumbered, defense efforts alongside scattered comrades from ships like the Bengal-class carrier UEES Krugeri and escort carrier UEES Argus, they became acutely aware of the need for a dedicated, well-coordinated private military force to assist the UEE and protect civilian sectors from similar threats.
Determined to address these gaps, the survivors retired from the UEE Navy and utilized their reputation, connections, and shared resolve to establish Sunder Military Group. The name “Sunder” signifies division, splitting, and separation—honoring those who fell from the mighty and serving as a warning to the enemy: a splinter in the right place can be debilitating. SMG was built on the principles of honor, loyalty, and friendship, drawing heavily from the survivors’ military experience and their vision for a more secure galaxy.
SMG quickly distinguished itself by recruiting elite personnel from various branches of the UEE military, as well as skilled mercenaries and strategists from across the ‘verse. The group’s rigorous training programs, advanced technology, and strategic flexibility allowed it to undertake a wide range of missions—from high-risk extractions and escort missions to offensive strikes against Vanduul clans, pirate bases, outlaw groups, and all those that feed on the innocent trying to make a life in the ‘verse.
SMG’s primary mission is to provide a haven for like-minded individuals in the unrelenting chaos of the universe—to safeguard the stars, protect the innocent, and uphold justice. This is achieved through a combination of proactive and reactive operations, fueled by unwavering dedication to honor, loyalty, and friendship:
SMG has grown from a small, elite unit of Vega II survivors into a respected powerhouse known for its effectiveness and integrity. The vision for SMG is not just to combat immediate threats but to build a legacy of security and stability in the ‘verse. By combining military precision with a deep commitment to honor, loyalty, and friendship, SMG creates a future where civilians live free from fear and where peace is more than just the absence of war—it’s a tangible reality enforced by those who have the courage to stand united against chaos.
Sunder Military Group remains a testament to the survivors’ belief that one well-organized, determined family can indeed make a difference, bringing hope and safety to the farthest reaches of the galaxy. The ‘verse shall know us—for honor, for loyalty, for friendship—we are SUNDER!
SUNDER, the remaining crew from shattered vessels of the UEE’s 2nd Fleet, emerged from the crucible of combat. Their years of experience and unwavering unity have forged their identity.
Let me recount their story:
On October 5, 2945, a small band of brothers and sisters—along with other scattered survivors from across the UEE fleet—faced their ultimate test. Serving aboard various vessels in the UEE’s 2nd Fleet, including the Bengal-class carrier UEES Krugeri, the escort carrier UEES Argus, and Idris-class frigates in the screening element, they were thrust into chaos during the surprise Vanduul incursion deeper into UEE territory. Tasked with defending the Vega system and eliminating the Vanduul Kingship and its command structure, they battled fiercely amid the orbital carnage as the invaders glassed cities on Vega II (Aremis) below. The Battle of Vega II became one of the most devastating engagements of the Vanduul War—a desperate, outnumbered fight that claimed millions of civilian lives in the planet’s bombardment before the UEE forces finally destroyed the enemy Kingship and drove the survivors out. Ships across the fleet held the line against overwhelming odds, witnessing the destruction of allied vessels and the horror unfolding on the surface. When the dust settled, the survivors—battle-hardened and resolute—banded together to form SUNDER, a small strike private military group dedicated to swift, targeted operations against threats the UEE couldn’t always reach.
“SUNDER” signifies division, splitting, and separation. It honors those who fell from the mighty and serves as a warning to the enemy—a splinter in the right place can be debilitating. For years, SUNDER waged relentless warfare against the Vanduul, experiencing both victories and defeats. They laughed, they cried, but never once did they lose faith.
The mission of SUNDER is clear: to provide a haven for like-minded individuals in the unrelenting chaos of the universe. We are more than voices in the ‘verse; we are a family bound by honor, loyalty, and friendship. Our dedication to each other fuels our resolve.
We wait for the opportunity to prove ourselves—to tell the ‘verse that we are SUNDER. Our legacy echoes through the stars, and our actions speak louder than words. When duty calls, we stand united, ready to face any challenge. For honor, for loyalty, for friendship—we are SUNDER.
