The galaxy is rife with conflict zones of varying degrees of intensity, from the low-level brushfires marring most third world planets to the everyday ultraviolence of the Koprulu Zone. In these wrong places, at the wrong times, the militaries of star nations can be seldom counted on to enforce the peace, and so those who wish to further their agendas or eliminate their regional rivals have to turn to the services of the galaxy's myriad private military contractors. From Klavostani mercenaries, to Belkan aces-for-hire, to private Replicant armies, known space has a nigh infinite abundance of shady professionals ready to do business with those who can pay the price.
