Staffel-68

"' One of the biggest corporations in the Islands, particularly in Telaga. They used to own their own military branch back when the Repressive Solutions's Team was opressing them, but nowdays, they are back to the beginning: a small team of gun geeks fascinated by the shiny and expensive. ' - The Range's Dealer"

The Staffel-68, sometimes shortened to S68, is a faction that appears through most of the campaign. They are led by Kenny Ross, his wife Adelheim Seidel and the commanders like Erwin, Vic, Ryan and Bindo.

Story
When Kenny Ross arrived in the Rodblogan Islands during the 1950s, he was struggling a bit in the sales of the CETME Modelo A. But then, he caught the attention of local companies like Lellafi, Nosmi's Precision Services and Kevdro. They all unified to become the Staffel-68.

During the 1960s and 1970s, the Staffel-68 had the most competitive shooters in the Rodblogan Run & Gun League and most of them were holding the top spots in most years. But during the 1980s, the ATF, through the RST, started cracking down on their suposed " illegal " activities despite the legality of their doings. The 1989 and 1994 bans were used as an excuse to bust the Staffel-68. Resistance was being in place in 1990s but all started to become rampant in 1998, when the RST deliberately assaulted the Teqaluit Harbor.

Offuscated by the ATF's grasp on their long time buddies like William Hayther and Andy Lincoln, the Staffel-68 geared up for combat and repulsed the RST out of Telaga. Then in 2006, to correct the RST and indirectly the Robloxian Republic, the Staffel-68 began the Invasion Of Robloxia.

During the early 2010s, the Staffel-68 was near to acomplish their revenge when suddenly, the Bloxxer Insurgency was born. Forced to retreat by the increasing brutality of the Bloxxers, the Staffel-68 is forced to focuse in Telaga's defenses, the operations in Robloxia being given to the Polizei-86.

In the mid-2010s, after the Robloxian-Telaga conflict, the Staffel-68's commanders decided to put in trials the Polizei-86 for having executed members of the Robloxian Republic and Crossroads Rebels's high ranks. The execution of Tristan unexpectly led to the Staffel-68 soldiers commiting a revolt against their commanders, initiating the Staffel Crisis. The S68 commanders would flee to Robloxia to meet up with the Polizei-86, Crossroads Rebels and Robloxian Republic. They would tell them about the situation and their allies accept to do the cleaning job.

After the Staffel Crisis, the Staffel-68 would return to their peaceful days. With only the commanders surviving and nobody to opress them, the S68 would still stay a private team of gun enthusiasts doing the most expensive modifications in the Islands.

Ranks
The Staffel-68's ranks held 5 branches of troops, alongside their Supreme counterparts.

Scapekeepers
The Scapekeepers are the backbone of S68 squads. They are typically seen with Assault Rifles or Battle Rifles and rarely anything else. Their Supreme Commander, Erwin, oftens prioritize survivability and the ability to keep the enemy away from causing harm. As such, Grenadier Infantry and regular Infantry is often their predilection departements.

Pythons
The Python Staffel, led by Vic, is one of the most agressive units deployed by the Staffel-68. They almost always use Guerilla Outcasts and Paramilitary Outcasts and they essentially appears in vast numbers to overwhelm the defenders. They also like to appear as visible as possible.

Enforcers
Ryan has an interesting interpretation of his Bandoliers. Where many pride on survivability or juggernauts, he insisted on deploying less tanky, yet very mobile support troops. Don't get too cocky tough, they will certainly take more damage than most of the Staffel-68. Assistant and Gunner Bandoliers are guaranteed to be present in at least most of the S68 encounters.

M13s
The M13 Division, under the direct command of Kenny Ross and his wife, is the rarest branch of them all. In the campaign, very few constitute the M13 Division and most of them, played by the player, move up to the Polizei-86. But in the rare occasions you find yourself against a M13, don't expect to be alive.

Barons
Bindo and his Barons have a huge influence on the Staffel-68. Many of them were only working in the workshops but as war entered, they got pressed into combat. Sometimes, Barons will go undercover to ensure the integrity and if it happens to require an internal arrest, Barons will bring with them a lot of muscle.
