I have been labeled a major lore-freak by many people. As you could guess, if I start a clan, it is damn well going to have strong lore backing it. However, a futuristic French Empire that controls much of Earth and has colonies on faraway worlds (but lacks the means to quickly get to the colony), that leaves room for several lore elements to prosper.
Even though we are an Earth based empire and we do deal with a lot of problems there, (Communist resistance states, Insurgent raids, martial laws, etc) our situation on Alpha Centauri seems to grap our attention most.
SITUATION SUMMARY
Upon landing on Alpha Centauri in 2088, the immigrants were greeted with the ancient ruins of a city from an apparently forgotten civilization. This civilization was much more advanced than anything Earth could produce. The immigrants founded the "Napoleon" colony in the abandoned city center. However, within hours of landing, construction efforts were halted due to strange attacks. Troops were sent to investigate. They never returned to Fortress Laselle. After days of nervous waiting, something happened. Armed madmen stormed the streets of Napoleon.
Any attempts to reason with these strange people always resulted in gunfire. French AAC forces were called in. The sheer force of the New French military against the small band of raiders was expected to scare them into submission. As the AAC demanded their immediate surrender, the raiders seemed to frenzy and attack all the AAC surrounding the area. This lead to a bloody street battle that lasted the entire night in question. Ever since, those same armed madmen (called "Feral Humans" by ILNF troops) regularly attack Napoleon. Even though 6 GPAMs and several battalions of AAC guard Napoleon through Fortress Laselle, there seems to be no limit of these Feral Humans.
EXPLANATION OF THE FERAL HUMANS
Imperial Legion scientists have determined that "Feral Humans" are the remnants of the civilization that once stood on the planet (This civilization and anything it provided has been nicknamed "pre-civ" until further information can be provided). It has been concluded that a virus from times-before has caused mutations within them. These mutations eventually force them to go mad. It is with hope, however, that these mutations only show in a certain number of individuals. With that hope, scientists believe that there may be an unmutated group of survivors living out some where in the wastes.
Some are armed with advanced pre-civ firearms that are beyond Earth capabilities. They require some training to wield, which is why all attempts to use them ourselves has failed. It is interesting to note that even though their mind is lost, they can still wield these complicated weapons with ease. Lucky for us, these weapons seem to be in short supply with the Ferals. Although there are still a considerable amount of firearms within their ranks, our tactic of taking all pre-civ firearms and locking them in secured research vaults has paid off. In the two years since landing, we have noticed much less gun-wielding Ferals. Besides their pre-civ guns, they mostly carry crude melee weapons.
NAPOLEON
Napoleon is the name of the colony set up in the ruined city center. As suggested, it is named after the Great Napoleon I. All of it's buildings are pre-civ, but the Improvement Corps has made them suited to living standards. Although resources are few, it is beginning to look like a normal city. Shops have opened, law is being enforced, a council has taken control.
Naploeon, however, is under constant threat from the Ferals. The ILNF forces from Laselle can only keep watch ever so often. Some of Napoleon's citizens have been dragged away in the middle of the night. The reason is unknown.
FORTRESS LASELLE
Fortress Laselle is the only protection Napoleon has. It is built within a large system of caves inside a mountian. The mountian is located on the outskirts of the city near a growing forest. It houses all of the Imperial Legion's AAC and military assets. It's location, seemingly awkward, runs right in the middle of the Feral Humans charges towards Napoleon.

No big deal.

Would you believe that the entire layout of this clan was inspired by Civilization V?

Not sure.
You don't have to put it in if you don't want to.
