Line 12:
* [[Going Native]]: The Legionaar sub-group of the Bergers are descended from rogue French Foreign Legionnaires who over time assimilated into the Afrikaner-descended population. That said, however, they still retain the martial traditions and professionalism of their forefathers, and even use French as an indecipherable battle language.
* [[Great Offscreen War]]: The "Dissolution Wars" that brought down interstellar civilization and which impact is still greatly felt centuries on. While it's touched upon at points, the exact details remain vague.
* [[Schizo-Tech]]: The "present time" on Shindai features a lot of this, partly as a consequence of the post-"Dissolution Wars" collapse, scavenging old wrecks and attempts to rebuild industrial society.
** The Bergers utilize "Geweers" (heavily implied to be replicas of Gewehr rifles) as their standard firearms while many other peoples on Shindai utilize black-powder musketry for theirs. On the other hand, their vessels have magnetic weapons while their Legionaars have access to "auto-fusils."
** The Texacor standard-issue gun is a black-powder musket rifle that could alternate between musselloading and breechloading configurations. It's also capable of firing hypervelocity, armor-piercing rounds.
