After the fall of Glendale, many among the Gaians’ numbers were concerned how incredibly vulnerable they had been. Though they were prepared for many emergencies - an OSC tour nearby, a BAF skirmish, BMM mining - a huge military ambush was not one of them. They asked that if even they could not see such coming, who would watch for such perils for Gaia?
A year later, with things eventually brought back to order, these ideas resurfaced in Gaian conversations, from the Green Hell all the way to the drab meeting rooms on Skye. Questions spread through all the stations they controlled, until eventually an answer emerged. A group called the Watchers formed, to serve as the eyes and ears of Gaia and ensure neither her nor those acting on her behalf would be taken by surprise again.
Organization
The Watchers are organized fairly loosely, with no defined rank structure. Once a Gaian is considered a member, they are treated at the same level as all the others. They are divided based on which stations they operate from.
Planning, Strategies, and Operations
Project Shetland
Project Shetland is the oldest organized effort of the Gaians to attack their foes. Spread between Islay Base, Skye Base, and Sandur Base within the edges of Bretonia, it is the effort to project Planet Gaia itself, as well as liberate Planet Harris from its fate. It also encompasses the efforts to save the wildlife that Planetform and OSC have taken off the planet. As such, the majority of craft capable of carrying large quantities of life are usually based in this region of space. In addition, Skye has seen a much higher quantity of Kusari-built craft pass through its docks than the other stations.
Operations
Liberate Gaian wildlife coming from Harris
Newcastle recon
Trade for supplies with Corsairs/Gallia/Kusari
Stop terraforming supplies going to Harris
Pirate all the ships
Project Mallorca
Project Mallorca is the collective name for the Gaian assaults against Bretonia’s attempted colonization of Planet Sprague as well as its further expansion into the Poole system. It is based on Torshavn Space Port within the Cambridge system and sends assault wings out to cover Cambridge, Omega-3, and Poole. Due to its location and the many threats, such as the Norfolk in particular and the Borderworlds in general, that these routes cover, it also has the largest Corsair influence, including a variety of Crete-built ships and several military advisors.
Operations
Attack Bretonian assets in Omega-3
Attack Planetform within Poole
Pirate for support from transports in Cambridge or entering Bretonia
Project Jamaica
Project Jamaica is the name for the Gaian attacks along the Bretonian-Libertonian border region. Major targets in this area include OSC’s Planet Curacao within the Cortez system, Planet California Minor within the California system, and ongoing operations within the Inverness system. It is organized by some of the more extreme Gaians on Klaksvik Outpost within the Inverness and as such as the highest percentage of Gaian-built craft as the members there rarely appreciate unusual ships docking. Partially due to this it and partially for pure logistic reasons, its organization has also spread to Holmfirth Base in the Manchester system, a base known to be open to just about anyone.
Operations
Borderworld recon
Attacks on Planet California Minor
Attack traffic going to/from Planet Curacao
Pirate traffic entering Bretonia

Ships and Equipment
Gaian built guns and ships are used by all members, as are civilian craft and weapons. Those originating from Torshavn may also have Corsair-built equipment and ships. Skye, Sandur, and Islay based members may utilize Gallic or Kusari guns and ships. Holmfirth pilots have been seen using most anything, and Klaksvik pilots only use Gaian things.
Unfortunately I dont have free time for playing novadays, so I couldnt support you ingame, but I wish you good luck. Its a shame that gaians arent representing themselves on the server, so I hope, you could change this situation.
I was in the NLH long, long time ago, like in any other gaian faction"ling", so feel free to ask if you have questions or need some help.
I am really looking forward to meeting you guys in game. I'm a bit full on factions at the moment but I have been in a previous Gaian faction so feel free to throw questions at me.
I got my hands on a gaian ship. I'll make a visit to your recruitment office soon. I hope you plan on getting rid of that hideous base that's polluting my nice asteroid field around Holmfirth.
