01 Archive: Smethells 56Smethells 56 was our first campaign that inspired written fiction for PCA, beyond the history and power structure we developed when first imagining our faction. Smethells 56 is a high tech system with highly isolated stations, including planetary bases with military and colony economies. We asked how
02 Archive: SPOCS 900We mark major state changes during our campaigns with news article. SPOCS 900 was originally a Federal democracy; we've spent many hours imagining what might happen when such a system becomes a feudal state. Out of necessity and exploration, we wrote this campaign as an independence movement, challenging
03 Archive: NyoruThe second Federal democracy conquered by PCA, Nyoru is a desirable high tech system that includes a tech broker. Our campaign here built on the story of Smethells 56, and progressed alongside our work in SPOCS 900. With it complete, PCA now controls all stations in systems it governs.
04 Archive: Regira SphereSenator Zemina Torval has suffered considerably over recent months at the hands of saboteurs in her power, and she has been forced to accepted turmoil and revolt across her domain. One such system is Regira, the center of a region critical to the Praetorian Curiate Assembly's plans. While we were eager
05 Archive: YaluraNeither the stations nor the economy of Yalura are particularly interesting. However, the system has a tourist beacon clearly in line with our martial philosophy, and was at one point a rarity: a system with eight minor factions, a legacy of old mechanics. Commander Astirian highlights this location
09 Archive: HIP 101846HIP 101846 is the most profitable control sphere in Senator Patreus' domain. It exploits SPOCS 900, our home system, and is an outstanding high tech economy. Arriving in HIP 101846 and taking total control of the system is an important achievement for us.
10 Archive: Wen ChayuseOur campaign in Wen Chayuse, a low population system offering only one outpost, was intended to allow us access to other systems. Our initial intent in Wen Chayuse was to eventually exit, but agreements with neighboring factions have led us to maintain a durable and presence.
11 Archive: PetraWhile Petra does not offer a large orbital station, it has a selection of outposts and planetary ports that make it an attractive system in the region. Taking Petra was an important part of our wider expansion plans in the Regira sphere and beyond and required a series of elections with a patronage heavily

13 Archive: PellangIn one of our longest campaigns, we used Pellang's low population to expand to Theta Indi and Regira. Because of this, our normal process of taking all available assets was spread over a much longer period than we would typically require for a system of this size.
14 Archive: Theta IndiTheta Indi is a highly populous system, at one point the 11th most populous in the Federation. Through our long campaign, PCA seized this system for the Empire and took landable assets. This campaign represents our most critical and complex success. Many of the independent feudal factions, alongside
Awards: Outstanding Performance in C152Cycle 152 was a week of turmoil for Admiral Patreus' sphere of influence. In this time of crisis, imperial commanders stepped up and finished fortifying all the control systems by monday. This shows an incredible dedication and determination, and the PCA Commanders that participated in this venture have
History: From Rowe Corporation to PCAOriginally a Private Military Contractor, the Praetorians (then called Rowe Corporation) became stably employed with Denton Patreus' private fleet in 3288.

Planet Celsius, Home Of The PCACernig10 SPOCS 900 6 is a terraformed earthlike world which has become the adopted home planet of the Praetorian Curiate Assembly after they recently took it and the system from the Federation.

Power structureSimilarly to a Patronage, the Curiate Assembly's Neo-feudalism is a complex political system that elects a delegate to represent its interests. In a Patronage, the gold standard of an efficent and just Imperial society, government positions are held according to a pyramid, constructed through a stratified
