Galactic Alliance Remnant



The Galactic Alliance Core Forces were the remnants of the Galactic Alliance military, operating in the years following the Alliance's defeat and conquest in the Sith-Imperial War. The Core Forces were a major part of the opposition to Darth Krayt's Sith-controlled Empire.

History
At the Battle of Caamas, the Imperial Navy defeated the main fleet of the Galactic Alliance Defense Force, forcing their surrender and the capitutaltion of the civilian government on Coruscant. However, Admiral Gar Stazi, the Alliance fleet commander, led his forces in a fighting retreat. This action preserved a portion of the Galactic Alliance Defense Fleet, which continued to oppose what would later become Krayt's Empire.

The Empire allowed the Alliance government to survive as its proxy in ruling what remained of Alliance space, in the form of the Triumvirate. However, Admiral Stazi's forces refused to surrender, maintaining years of hit and run attacks on Krayt's Imperial forces.

In 137 ABY, Admiral Stazi of the Core Forces represented the Alliance during a meeting with Captain Mingo Bovark, who was loyal to Emperor Roan Fel, in a effort to form an alliance against the Sith-controlled Empire.

Sith assassin Jor Tolin and Imperial agent Morrigan Corde managed to foil the proposed alliance between Fel's loyalist forces and the Galactic Alliance remnant by making it appear that a Imperial shuttle opened fire on Admiral Stazi's shuttle. Both groups left The Wheel, hopes for a alliance broken, at least for the moment.

Behind the scenes

 * During a recent online chat conducted by TheForce.Net, Jan Duursema was asked several questions regarding the Galactic Alliance Core Forces. One chat participant asked "Who are they", to which Ms. Duursema replied, "Galactic Alliance Core Forces? We'll see more of them later on."


 * During the same online chat, another participant asked "I would presume GACF is the 'remnant' of the Galactic Alliance... the rebels of the day? :D". Ms. Duursema then replied "like that."


 * Randy Stradley recently confirmed in a thread on the Jedi Council Forums that the GACF has several other ships designed by Sean Cooke: "Sean has designed a very cool looking main battle cruiser for the Legacy Era Galactic Alliance, and is in the process of designing a fleet of smaller support craft, missile cruisers, and the like. You'll be seeing the first of the GA craft in Legacy #8, I think, and then more and more of them after that."
