History
The Clone Wars Era
The Baktoid brand first appears in the Galactic Corporate Registry more than ten years before the beginning of the Clone Wars. At that time, Baktoid served as the vehicle manufacturing subsidiary for the Trade Federation, and Baktoid engineers were decisive influences in the development of heavy armor vehicles such as the Armoured Attack Tank and the STAP.
In the Trade Federation's Expansionist Era, Baktoid Armour Workshop enjoyed great success. As the Federation agressively pursued an expansionist policy, demand for quality combat vehicles swelled and the fledgling vehicle faction grew rapidly. However, the success did not last. The Trade Federation deployed an unprecedented nubmer of troops and vehicles at the battle for the planet Naboo, but lost the battle. As part of the ensuing effort to mollify the Senate and to prevent political rivalry on Neimoidia, the Trade Federation closed Baktoid Armour Workshop, merging its resources and employees into Haor Chall Engineering. As the Trade Federation took its place in the separatist side of the Clone Wars, the Baktoid brand was left unused. It became all but forgotten in the Federation's fall from prominence after the Clone Wars ended.
The Rise of SDF
After the rise of the Galactic Empire and beginning of the galactic civil war, many small factions were founded to supply the warring sides. One faction, called the Sons & Daughters of Freedom, was founded to promote political neutrality. To fund and front their operations, SDF went into business to maufacture and sell items. SDF became a fairly successful operation headquartered on Belephor in the Thrakia System. As SDF became the most prominent and pervasive employer and corporate power in the system, it quickly rose to political leadership. Using its new-found governmental power, SDF realized its goal of creating a completely neutral system as a haven from the ravages of the galactic civil war.
During this time period, the Glythe Sector came under control of the Trade Federation. The Federation had undergone substantial change since the end of the Clone Wars, and moved its headquarters from Neimoidia to Vinsoth. SDF welcomed a strong sectoral government professing galactic neutrality, and SDF peacefully coexisted with the Federation for several years. Over those years, SDF's business platform had begun to erode as faction leadership became more concerned with galactic politics than with the production business that funded their operations. As a result of the negligent policies of the SDF governing board, the faction was in serious financial trouble by the time the Trade Federation had ended its conflict with the Galactic Empire.
A New Baktoid
Under the direction of Viceroy Jacob Jansen, the Trade Federation purchased SDF and the Thrakia System. Resurrecting the old Baktoid Armour Workshop brand, SDF was rechristened and continued production of items as a member of the Confederacy of Independent Systems. Arturius Hall was named the first President of the new Baktoid Armour Workshop, and Gadon Trammer was installed as Vice President. President Hall was charged with making Baktoid a viable production faction and returning it to the galactic prominence it had once enjoyed as SDF. For about a year, President Hall labored to turn the financial situation at Baktoid in a favorable direction.
President Hall and Vice President Trammer worked to expand the operations that had flagged under SDF's later days, seeking out experienced employees for BAW's high command and purchasing new equipment and ships for the faction. As Vice President, Gadon Trammer reorganized the system of command for Baktoid, implementing an incentive-based system of bonuses to drive quality employees to the top of the structure.
With this new system in place, Baktoid's production was rejuvenated. Profit margins rose to the point that the company was able to satisfy the majority of its creditors. With the company out from the shadow of debt, President Hall resigned his post to pursue other business opportunities, leaving Gadon Trammer as Baktoid's President.
Acquisitions
- Under Viceroy Jacob Jansen, item production faction Zone Supplies Limited was purchased from Seth Shepard and merged into Baktoid Armour Workshop. The purchase was backed by the entire Imperial Union, and the Galactic Empire donated capital ships to the deal offering. The final purchase price was listed at 1.5 billion credits with Mandalore, Hapes Consortium and the Trade Federation each offering Shepard 500 million credits to complete the deal.
- On Year 11 Day 202, item production faction Creshaldyne Industries was purchased from mogul Elm Aran by Viceroy Jacob Jansen. The final purchase price was listed at 1.5 billion credits. The resources of the company were immediately merged into Baktoid Armour Workshop, including production schematics for the creation of Battle Armour, Tents, Portable Power Fission Generators, Masks, Macro Binoculars, Handled Shields, Combat Armour, Camouflaged Tents, Biological Sensor Packs, and Toolkits.
