The Zones, a related species to the Clones, have been the pirate scum of the galaxy for decades. Operating from their largely lawless home world they have used their booty to keep their ships at the cutting edge, and operate in highly trained bands under the command of various Pirate-Kings. Lately there has been an upsurge in Zone activity in the upper Rim worlds and the space near Oscar and New Jakarta.
There is now a rumour circulating that the Zones have amassed a vast wealth from their decades of plunder and have a secret treasury on Zoneworld worth over 30 billion zarks! Getting at the money would be tricky though as the space near their home planet is some of the most dangerous in the galaxy and operating together the Zone bands possess a fleet equal to anything the DDS, Dinos or HCS could muster!
