Mystery and intrigue always seem to surround the Terran faction known as the Nova Squadron, a group often finding themselves in the middle of some new conspiracy. Long known for their clandestine operations, the Confederate’s enigmatic Nova Squadron was created not only to gather intelligence on the various “Pirate Militias” that threatened Confederate security, but also to keep tabs on the various operative branches within the Confederate Armed Forces. Acting upon the role of the Confederate’s clandestine group of secret police, they were mistrusted and shunned by their fellow warriors. Nova Squadron kept on the move, constantly seeking to undo the considerable political sabotage and corruption that ran rampant through the government of the Confederacy. Once the Confederacy was dissolved, however, Nova Squadron was forced to go into hiding. Never truly encountered during the StarCraft/Brood War campaigns, Nova Squadron will emerge from the darkness for the first time in StarCraft: Ghost.

The Death’s Head Legion is renowned throughout Confederate space for its unrelenting savagery in battle. Only called upon in severe crisis situations, the Legion’s warriors fearlessly enter any battle against the enemies of the Confederacy. The Legion is mainly comprised of ex-criminals who have been resocialized and now selflessly give their lives in service to the society that they once threated.
