The Mercenary War

Military: War

Cenargo mercenary disputes escalate

Rival mercenary units clash in the Outer Rim, despite both having being hired by Cenargo Corporation to protect colonial assets against pirate activity. Both force's contracts are promptly revoked, but fighting escalates, forcing the Cenargo corporate forces to become involved.   The Mercenary War is finally brought to an end with the signing of the Mercenary Charter. The Charter, formulated by the ICA, lays out a code to which all mercenary units and their employers are expected to adhere. All signatories to the Charter, which includes most organisations that either supplies or employs foreign mercenary troops, agree not to hire any unit that does not comply with the terms of the code.
