War Pigs

The War Pigs are a band of terran outlaws, seemingly at odds with the Terran Dominion. They are the protagonists of the StarCraft comic.

History
During the Great War, the War Pigs were hired by the Terran Confederacy to assassinate Arcturus Mengsk at Atticus Minor. Taking advantage of the Sons of Korhal being distracted by a zerg invasion, they moved in, only to be forced back by the zerg. They fled to the safety of a mine shaft while waiting for the General Lee to rescue them, but the miners refused to let them in. The War Pigs killed the miners and held out until they could be evacuated.

Interbellum
Once disbanded, they were brought back together by their captain for one final mission–the assassination of Jim Raynor. As a reward, their records will be expunged.

Their ship, the General Lee, fell into the hands of pirates, prompting an attempt to get the ship back.
