OverviewEdit
The DCMS military uses the term "free-floating regiment" to describe units without a set region of responsibility. These free-floaters are expected to be ready to move - and to move fast - to wherever they are needed. To this end, free-floaters usually have their own DropShips and JumpShips.
There is a prejudice in the Draconis Combine military against the freefloaters. While many admire the skills of the better units, most feel that free-floaters are little better than mercenaries. This unit's detractors say that because the units move about so much, they cannot develop a sense of loyalty to the realm the way District Forces can.
The free-floaters feel this prejudice most when trying to get supplies.[1]
