CONTRACTED CELLS
Insurgencies that have been outsourced by the umbrella group LAMBDA are called contracted cells. Between a singular leader or co-operative decision within a cell, its members have accepted the LAMBDA cause, with the extents of which they follow varying between different cells. Some cells are more devout than others accomplishing their collective strategic goals, while others see it as a necessary side-objective to their own motivations. Regardless, all contracted cells receive weekly restocking shipments so long as ground-based supply routes remain uninterrupted. Cell shipment sizes vary in amount and specialization based on their expertise, member count and track record. Recruitment is free-form and completely up to individual leaders or collective say. Contracted cells may have occasional group conflicts, though the likelihood of violence is rare due to the risk of terminating their supply agreement.
When applying for a contracted cell, it is important to develop objectives you seek to achieve, as leading these cells offers you a lot of creative freedom while also being the one responsible for the group's solidarity. Figure out a way to keep your members engaged to your cause. Try to develop a unique group culture that might slightly or greatly differentiate you from other cells.
INDEPENDENT CELLS
Usually exiles running off of their last shipment. Rarely, some cells establish their own supply systems. Independent cells usually adopt goals or ideologies that conflict with the LAMBDA mission and so lead to a rejection of contract. Alternatively, their independence may have been the result of violent internal struggles during their tenure as a contracted cell. They may have been deemed dysfunctional saboteurs of operations although their motivations may have not been clearly opposed to humanity's struggle, meaning no bounty is set. Despite their unfavorable or sometimes unknown backgrounds, contracted cells are not disallowed from co-operating with them on missions, which is entirely up to both parties' risk assessments.There is no applying for an independent cell. Either your group has been excised from the bulk of contracted ones, or you have started this group traditionally from the ground-up relying on less-than-consistent sources of food and gear. However, this does let you stray much further from usual resistance archetypes. You might not even want to resist - simply coexist in a hostile environment and make your own ends meet.
