				New Game
When a player logs into a new server or starts a new solo game the first thing that you have to do is pick a faction. There are currently four different factions in-game. Hurles Co., Galactic Trade, Sentinel Security Systems, and Drifters. Each of the factions has their own specialties. When you start you are given a set amount of starting resources and your character is teleported into that faction's base of operations.
Let's compare each of these factions.
