This is one of the big ones; it covers a number of smaller sub divisions including Security and Mercenary operations.
The security operations eat money, the Lane Security team makes ends meet with escort runs, but its costs far outweigh what it can bring in. However Ageira has mercenary outfits operating out in the Tau’s credit’s good there and The Mercenary team pulls in what Lane security lacks. Of course Ageira Mil has contracts to supply the Lib Navy and LSF, as well as the LPI with Havoc Bombers so that bring s in a hell of a revenue, although those contracts may come to an end if DSE can finish up it’s designs for the Liberty Bomber, a custom designed ship.
>>Ageira has had something of an embarrassment however with one of it’s latest toys the RI suite in the new assault mechs has turned out to be unpredictable, sparking rumours that some of them may have gone full AI.
>>Tomahawk
>>Rumour my foot, Ageira has kept on top of it so far but there’s only so much they can do to hide the fact they screwed up with this latest Restricted Intelligence.

Known Subsidiaries:
Lane Security
Lane security is Ageira’s response force for the lanes, where there are trade lanes, you should see the occasional LS patrolling, they have a live and let live policy regarding pirates, so long as they aren’t disrupting the lanes then it’s fine. The same held true for the Xenos up till three months ago, but an attack on 003 outside Newark by Serpentis Ace Coachwhip caused that little understanding to fall apart.
>>Yup that he did and we couldn’t care less, Lane Security are pawns of Ageira and are to be treated as such.
>>Cobra
>>Senseless fanatics, you cannot win.
>>Skalde
>>Now is as good a time as any to mention the Lane Hackers, whilst Ageira denies any claims that they are ex employees, it’s about as obvious as Xenos recruiting on Huntsville.
The Lane Hackers are currently led by director Moriarty, whether that’s his real name or not is up for debate as being hackers they’ve managed to remove just about all trace of their identities from the Cortex. The Hackers try to cause as much trouble for Ageira as possible and they don’t half make a dent in Ageira Mils quarterly profits.
But any attempts to wipe them out have so far proven to be somewhat pointless. The authorities have caught any number of Rogues and Outcasts operating on Lane Hacker tip offs, but they've never yet managed to lay a finger on a single Lane Hacker, you'll not see any of Moriarty's men sitting in Sugarland making hats and licence plates.
>>GateWatcher
>>Hmm, is that all we get? Ah well at least it means our secrets are not compromised. Oh and Fastjack if we ever catch you snooping around our systems again, I’ll be sure to ensure my Hackers liquidize your brain.
>>Moriarty
>>Duly noted, of course they’ll have to catch me first. Now get out of my Archive!
>>Fastjack
>>>User Moriarty has been ejected<<<
>>Nice try
>>Moriarty
>>Lancers listen up, frankly this goes for Xenos too, Ageira has a security division they tell nobody about, and I do mean nobody. I only know they exist because we met them on a run, they fragged us but good, we barely managed to get out alive. They are called the Ghosts and that’s a good name. Highly modified for Stealth, Strength and Speed. They hurt.
>>Slammo!
Ageira Research and Development
This is where the big money in Liberty is, Universal and Interspace don’t dabble much in experimental technologies, they prefer ones that work, however Ageira’s history is rooted in R&D and they’ve only gone from strength to strength since. It’s Ageira R&D that designed the RI systems that the Military division use, but the Military division insists on tweaking them. They are currently working on making their civilian starship weapons line that much more effective.
>>Of course Ageira R&D also works continuously on its Debilitator line, which is incredibly popular around Sirius, so popular in fact the Detroit and Pueblo get raided on a regular basis by Xenos looking to score some tasty shield busters.

Where the Cool Kids Are.
Ageira doesn’t have much in the way of space facilities, but it’s got a few nice pads dotted around Liberty’s planets. Of course for all you space cases the two most obvious places are the space ports, Detroit Munitions and Pueblo, so I’ll detail them first.
Detroit Munitions
Stuck way out there at the ass end of New York, Detroit was the biggest target of the Xenos in times past, however since Ageira started hiring Bounty Hunters to keep the place safe it seems the Xenos prefer the slightly less defended Pueblo. Detroit manufactures small scale arms. Kind of Pueblo’s little brother.
>>Detroit pays very well for lancers looking for a bit of combat action, often times Xeno teams will infiltrate the station and all you’ve got to do is clean them out.
>>Pittsburgh Pony
>>You are aware you’re accessing this through a Xeno Archive?
>>Fastjack
>>Ah yeah, forgot where I was for a second. <display grin>
>>Pittsburgh Pony
Pueblo Station
Pueblo has a better spot in Colorado, nestled nicely between the Jumpgate to New York and the Battleship Rio Grande just up the tradelanes. Pueblo makes the big guns and it’s where a lot of the ship panels for Liberty’s finest vessels come from. It’s also where the codes for those little white boxes are generated; as such it’s got a bit more security than Detroit, including passing cruiser patrols sent by the Navy to ensure that Pueblo stays mostly Xeno free.
Ageira HQ
Located on Los Angeles, Ageira’s headquarters is a state of the art, modern facility boasting all thee mod cons any corper needs to get through his day. It’s very highly secured and pretty much inviolate. Try it at your own peril.
Ageira Corporate Retreat
Located on OSCs lovely little orb out in Cortez, the retreat is located in 150 acres of sprawling countryside, animals can be seen from behind the very big fence and towers and other fun stuff designed to keep the plebs out.
>>Everyone of those animals is a hologram, they have to be as all 150 acres of that countryside are littered with smart mines designed to go off if anyone without an Ageira certified RFID tag implanted so much as puts a foot on them. They feel solid to touch, but they have zero weight so thusly can’t set them off.

That’s it. Everything you need to know about one of Liberty’s Big Three. Enjoy.
