About the organization, I'm still in the thinking stage actually. I'm still trying to think of a good reason for the organization to exist and their goals.

My original idea is that it will be made up of rogue left wing extremists in the TSAB and as such will have members in almost all TSAB departments. Their end goals will be to:
  • Forcefully subjugate all non-administrated worlds with civilizations and bring them under the control of the TSAB.
  • Conscript all people with mage talent and increase the might of the TSAB forces.
  • Use the vastly increased force to hunt down dissenters, criminals such as Fei Wong Reed and his dukes and deal with other worldly threats permanently such as the Daemons, Necrons etc...
I won't commit myself yet since currently there is one vote against the left wing extremist faction. I'm trying to think of an alternative in case there are more people against it.

As for whether they're on the same level as unison-devices in performance, well... that depends on your definition. The VUDs are corrupted versions of unison devices, which are specially engineered to control, corrupt and mutate the infected. The functionalities are rather different, but in terms of raw power no, since the VUDs would be fighting against the hosts for control over the body.

Don't worry Tormenk, when the 'infection' occurs, alot and i do mean alot of people will get affected Also I'm setting the VUDs to be specifically engineered to be that way instead of an accident.

@Thread: Any help/ideas at this overly ambitious idea would be greatly appreciated
