Faction Locations
Main Base : A little encampment in the Nevadean Desert, the place count a few building, an “airstrip” (Enough flat ground to land a big military transport aircraft). The fact that this is a remote location make the location pretty secure by itself, however the base is planned to be expanded or changed in location. Le Bourguignion lead the element of the N-51 that want to go on the mercenary business but Commander sometimes come by when he need specific stuff or personal.
Seattle Outpost : An old warehouse in the Barrens, the location is surrounded by barbed fence and patrolled by operative all the time, it host the Clandestine Operation part of the Task Force, the place is well organised and not a single square meter is wasted, the place host a “helicopter pad” (just enough space to let the helicopter land easily.) The place hold a properly geared medical facility, some “interrogation room” and also most of the document about the N-51 past, present and future operation. (Paper files only.)

Background
The Task Force November 51 was created around 2070’s it was part of an expansion of the special force by the Foreign Legion, it was based volunteering but some soldiers received invitation to join the unit. Quickly the unit got closer to the DGSE (French CIA) and would serve as a Clandestine Operation unit and would be specialized to operation in remote terrain (jungle, mountain and all that.) Presumably to prepare strike against a variety of target. The unit saw it’s first deployment mid 2070’s most of the unit were already veteran of such operation (many came from other units) but some were recruited and were just out of special forces training program. The N-51 was a pretty good unit with an average success rate. During the event of the Boston Lockdown the Task Force was deployed in support of the Foreign Legion and runners team to save Angélique Rouge, a french national hero. Heavy casualties followed and after the operation success the N-51 was sent to a base of operation in Nevada to look after some peoples who could have been link to Angélique Rouge presence in Boston. When the Neo-Revolution kicked off, the N-51 was basically stranded from the High-Command, pissed off by the situation, the officer of the unit decided to break their bond with the French Army and to relocate the base of operation, leaving with a lot of equipment in the process. Commander who leaded that movement was however in the minority when it came to the future of the unit, most of the operative were bored of the whole Clandestine Operation thing and were okay to move to regular mercenary group, Commander took his distance and reached Seattle with the one that were okay with his view. The two side still stick to the whole N-51 unit concept but they are on the bring of tearing themselves appart. Recently the signature of the N-51 unification treaty led to a reorgnisation of the Task Force where both party are happy, and with this operationnal capability of the Task Force is reinforced
Allies
The N-51 has tie with Mr Cromwell and some think that they work together sometimes the N-51 being kind of needing weaponery for their operation.
The unit has also ties with the UCAS since Ltn Commander Yennefer Kerrigan struck a deal with them. She would be the potential buyer if any Blood Hawk would come into the N-51 hands.
Enemies
Saedder-Krupp or more specifically Amrei. The N-51 stole files from the Megacorps and plan on being the first to steel a Blood Hawk from Aztechnology. A Dangerous game indeed.
Current Status
Active The N-51 is composed of roughly three platoon (around thirty men each) of operative. Two are under the command of Le Bourguinion and are stationed at the main base while the other is under Commander control and is at Seattle. The Task Force also got some pilot, technical personal and other logistics personal who are not properly train to fight. The two platoon under Le Bourguinion got some fresh replacement from recruitment drive while the Platoon from Commander don’t really accept newcomers (except in very specific circumstances) The Task Force got some heavy vehicle namely :
A fully functional BTR
An heavy transport plane. (A400M kind)
A transport helicopter (Heavily Retrofitted UH-60 Black Hawk)
A gunship (Agular GX-2) gathered during an Operation (see AAR of I o the storm)
Some transport vehicle (Humvee/Ares Roadmaster)
Health Summary
Maintaining The Task Force is actually struggling to keep money balance because of all the things they have to keep working together. Commander is staging a long run big operation while Le Bourguinion try to make some money on regular mercenary contract.

Operational Organisation
Headquarters :
- Capitaine "Le Bourguinion" (Real Name unknown) : Leader of the Task-Force and overseeing the operation of Rampart Branch(Mercenary Group)
- Lieutenant "Commander" (Same issue) : Leader of the Special Operation Branch.
- Major "Mazarin" : Second in command of the Rampart Branch (Replace le Bourguinion at the Nevada headquarters while Seattle situation is settled.)
- Rempart Branch Organisation :
The Rempart Branch is the part of the N-51 that decided to turn his back to the Special Operation doctrine and to embrace the life of mercenary. Since discussion with the West Coast Monolith they embraced strict ROE, avoid civilian casualties and have somehow also embraced the hatred of gangers. They use regular infantry tactics and count on the skills of the hardened veteran (that are still numerous for now) to overcome their opponents. The recruitment to the Rempart Branch is affordable by any combattant with average skill which is going to dilute the potential of the Branch on the long run. (Current Composition between old veteran and new recruit is 90%/10%)
Groupement Nevada led by Major Mazarin : Main base of the N-51 holding point of the heavy assets and vehicles. The Groupement Nevada is strong of thirty mercenaries and around sixty non combattant personnal (technician, armorer, cook and so on) The mercenaries are orgnised in three squad of ten.
Groupement Seattle led by Le Bourguinion : The Groupement Seattle is located around the old territory of Pump King Jack. The N-51 have the bulk of their forces on the field there to do policing and helping the local. Forty mercenaries are doing regular patrol in area, their is also an higher number of trained medic and the head physician of the N-51 there for now.
- Special Operation Branch Organisation :
The Special Operation Branch are the "Hardliners" of the N-51 they sticked to the old teaching and are true to the historical leader of the Task-Force, Commander. They are doing the dirty work (assassination, false flag operation, raid and so on) when it's needed and offer their service in the shadows as well. They have a strict recruitment policy and so far most of the recruit has been captured and offer position to diverse unit due to their skills. (MCT Prototype Transhuman or PTT from other place are so far the only recruit they had made). They have little regard to civilian life and will avoid bystander at all cost, thought being trained professional they usually avoid being seen in the first place. They have a huge power of adaptation when it come to tactics and they use a wide array of gear to prepare the diverse mission they could receive.
Special Group Alpha led by Commander : Only special group in activity so far, their is around forty personnals dispatched in several specialised squad, each working on their own objective. Those team are lead by very capable NCO and are the cream of the crops of the N-51 troopers. The list goes as is :
-Elite Team (Etrius's team) (4 operatives) => Currently working on Operation Hell's Gate (Blood Hawk Stealing)
-Alpha Squad "Shield" (Led by Sergent-Major Bayard) (10 operatives) => Currently working on reconnaissance in the Barrens (Target is the 162's)
-Bravo Squad "Judge" (Led by Sergent-Chef Murat) (10 operatives) => Watching the Seattle Outpost perimeter.
-Charlie Squad "Shadow" (Led by Sergent Shy) (6 Operatives) => Mustering squad and in training. Not combat ready yet)
-Delta Squad "Sewer Brigade" (Led by Sergent-Chef Louis) (8 Operatives) => Squad in training for further operation in Sophocles
-Ghost Team 1 (2 operatives) => Designated Sniper Team if need be.
