Attention all agents!

Greetings operatives. We are faced with a noteworthy threat. The megagang known as...

The Shelldogs.


A matriarchal religious megagang, with over ten thousand members. Firearms violence is elevated, preached as a virtue. Xenophobia is rampant among the Shelldogs — they would seek to dominate and degrade anyone outside of their cult

“Dogs of the wastes! Behold the miracles of our Divine, in his grace blessing us for our gifts! Let our raids be fruitful, let our shells cover the wastes! In the name of Gunpowder and Lead!” - words of a Bulletpriestess, Embrasure II

Though mostly loyal and obedient, Shelldogs are prone to unpredictable behavior. One day they call our spacebridges "Heavencanes" and praise Damag's moon as their Wolfgod, the other - blow one of them up, halting trade in the region.

It would be useful to learn more on the gang's hierarchy, before you are sent to Damag, operative. Here is an excerpt from our archive:

  • Mega-bitch or Utopia — the head of the Shelldogs.
  • Shellpriestesses and Bulletpriestesses take on general and chaplain duties. “Bullets” focus on all-out onslaught, while “Shells” cover logistics.
  • Varg is the highest rank a male can achieve. It is basically equal to a senior officer/ colonel. Sometimes their lacking strategic and combat abilities are more than compensated by their libido and good looks. There are exceptions, however - Utopia’s Varg is not to be trifled with.
  • Beta wolf is a rank equivalent to junior officer. They are experienced fighters and clawed their way to this rank through gunfights, raids and missions.


Though other gang members are commonly known as just dogs, underestimate them at your own peril. They still outnumber you, operative.

And always remember your mission, agent - track down Utopia and cut her down. With you as the protector of the UCE's assets, the rebellion on Damag surely won't last. Good luck.
