The Frontier Syndicate is a wide reaching conglomerate of the Principality which has subsidiaries in spheres ranging from entertainment to industry. Although the Syndicate is led by the Columnar Exanceaster March, it is part of the Bilateral Intercession rather than the Pact of Free States
March Anecdatist Foundation
The March Anecdatist Foundation is a subsidiary of the Frontier Syndicate founded by Exanceaster March himself. They hire people for low pay to participate in unprotected mech wrestling and other blood sports, then use the data from these fights in order to create automated weapons and AI.[1] Palisade is their prospective "testing ground"[2] where they are both staging fights and deploying their new weaponry on behalf of the Bilateral Intercession.[1]
