Gaiaterra: Elysea's Conflict/Garlean's Scions of Science Ministry

The Garlean's Scions of Science Ministry is one of the minor factions in Gaiaterra: Elysea's Conflict. An independent military and research wing of Voshkod Army, under the Ministry of Experimental Sciences that operates technologies that are too dangerous or useless for the regular Voshkod forces. However, all of these mask their overwhelming desire for their further recognition by higher Voshkod authorities.

Description
The precise history of the Garlean's Scions of Science Ministry is shrouded in mystery not because it's a state secret, but rather no one in the Party caring enough about it. As far as anyone in the Voshkod Army is concerned, GSSM. is just the drop-off point for any intellectual in any fields that fell out of favor with premiers of their time. Scientists whose projects fail to meet the expectations of their creators and the state, "geniuses" who really were only kicked into a position upstairs where they couldn't interfere with anyone else and their valuable work. Dozens of Voshkod's best thinkers were pushed into GSSM after Garlean's death, where Gentiana upended decades of Eorzean scientific ideas and strategies.

Gentiana Science Strike Force
While not directly part of the Voshkod Army, the Gentiana SSF is composed of units that are testing the weapons that have viable chance of being put into production and service, thought they are also sent along with GSSM forces for the field trials. When the GSSM Generals need help, it is Gentiana SSF that sends in their men and equipment, that are believed to be future of the Voshkod armed forces.
