This likely won't interest anybody who doesn't play the game. This information came from a collector's website which had listings for all 32 "Situational Alliance" cards.

The Gunslingers don't count as a "faction" because they are Mercenaries and can be hired by any side. I have to make a point of this to myself because some of the Mechs I have are Gunslinger exclusives such as the Mortis. The Undead Lance and the Champions Action Packs are likewise meant to be Gunslingers.

I'll probably delve into these alliances and what they mean further before I start assigning my forces.
