The '''Badlands''' is a sector in [[Red Faction: Guerrilla]]. It is located between [[Dust]] and [[Oasis]], being the third to be liberated in the story.  
[[Image:MarauderShotgun.jpg|250px|right|thumb|A Marauder holding the [[Shotgun (RFG)|Shotgun]].]]
The '''Marauders''' are a mysterious people that appear in ''[[Red Faction: Guerrilla]]''. They inhabit the [[The Badlands|Badlands]] sector of [[Tharsis]], [[Mars]]. They are the descendants of [[Ultor]] scientists from [[Red Faction|the first game in the series]]. They are hostile toward all other groups, happily killing members of both the [[Earth Defense Force]] and the [[Red Faction (Group)|Red Faction]].


The Marauders worship [[Capek|Dr. Axel Capek]] as a god, having built many shrines dedicated to him and the Ultor Corporation.
==Background==
{{Quote|The Badlands are a wasteland of harsh terrain and scrap. For whatever reason, the EDF set up their largest outpost here. Most people think they're looking for something out there... add the high concentration of Marauder activity and the sector is an extremely hostile area.|Guerrilla Handbook}}
The Badlands are home to the [[Marauders]], descendants of [[Ultor]] Scientists from the first [[Red Faction (Game)|Red Faction]] who appear in large numbers at night. Ruins of Ultor buildings and mines can be found in the sector.


==Behavior and Culture==
The reason the EDF is so intent on controlling this area is because of the [[Nano Forge]], a powerful piece of Ultor technology that has the ability to create a near infinite supply of nanites, thus tempting the EDF to weaponize it.
===Aggression===
== Missions ==
The Marauders simply refuse to interact with other human beings in a peaceful manner. There are only two Maruaders that speak clearly throughout the game. The rest never speak, only grunting and yelling at [[Alec Mason]] or each other. Though it wouldn't quite be true to say they are unintelligent, they are certainly not at the same IQ level as their ancestors from fifty years ago.

Occasionally they can, with no prompting from the player, be found attacking EDF soldiers and property, sometimes inadvertently assisting the player. But it's best not to get in their way when they are carrying out these actions, or they will focus all their efforts into eliminating the player first.

===Technology===
===Ambient Vehicles===
By nature, they are scavengers, salvaging what they can from the inhabitants of Mars that are foolish enough to stray into the Badlands. There are several audio diaries that indicate that the recording parties met their end at the hands of the Marauders. The Marauders' weaponry tends to be cobbled together from junk that they find around them, and occasionally from stolen EDF and Red Faction technology. Their vehicles are as wild and feral looking as their creators.

===Intellect===
{{Tile|Min_Rover.png|Rover||120|80}}
The Marauders are generally perceived as mysterious, brutal savages. It is entirely possible, however, that they simply hide their intelligence from the outsiders they so strongly loathe. At least one Marauder has been shown to be highly intelligent. The Marauders' technology is also an indicator of their intelligence; while it is largely formed from stolen or scavenged parts, the tech can at times be quite advanced.

In addition to attacking Alec Mason, at some point during the story the Red Faction will ally itself with the [[Marauders]] to achieve an objective.

Prior to the events of ''Red Faction: Guerrilla'', a Marauder named [[Samanya]] rescued [[Dan Mason]] and [[Hugo Davies]] from an EDF prison camp in [[Mariner Valley]]. She later defected to the newly-revived Red Faction. In ''Red Faction: Guerrilla'', the Marauders were hostile toward the Red Faction. However, their leader, [[Vasha]], was forced to establish a truce with the miners to destroy [[the Hydra]]. During the attack on the ship, Vasha was killed, and the terms of the peace agreement -- the giving of the [[Nano Forge]] to the Marauders -- were not honored; this may have led to a renewed enmity between the Marauders and the miners.
 
==Trivia==
*They come in two variants: Ravager, and Raider. Raiders wear what looks like a canister or jug of some sort with a cut-open circle with glass attached. They are more durable and mainly stick with their faction's main weapons.
*They will wield only Gauss Rifles later in the game when they become allies.
*Storyline-wise, they are regularly first encountered in the Ultor Echo mission.

  • The Badlands is a sector in Red Faction: Guerrilla. It is located between Dust and Oasis, being the third to be liberated in the story.

    Background

    The Badlands are a wasteland of harsh terrain and scrap. For whatever reason, the EDF set up their largest outpost here. Most people think they're looking for something out there... add the high concentration of Marauder activity and the sector is an extremely hostile area. „
    — Guerrilla Handbook

    The Badlands are home to the Marauders, descendants of Ultor Scientists from the first Red Faction who appear in large numbers at night. Ruins of Ultor buildings and mines can be found in the sector.

    The reason the EDF is so intent on controlling this area is because of the Nano Forge, a powerful piece of Ultor technology that has the ability to create a near infinite supply of nanites, thus tempting the EDF to weaponize it.
