After a mission for Jake Marlowe that went sour, Stone and Kuramoto approached Marc and Alex Barros for funds, expanding and turning Brigade into a more super-team-like group [1]. The team never worked quite well, consisting of unstable elements and the deaths of some of its members, ending first with Hacker and Boone being forced to betray Brigade and the apparent death of Battlestone [2,3], and the following death of the majority of the members when Crypt attacked [4].


Third team

Not knowing what to do, Dash took S.P.I.C.E. to Kid Supreme. While trying to find out what to do, thery ran into Badrock, who was training with Kyra and Geoff. S.P.I.C.E. showed evidence that she was innocent to the group, and shortly the evidence was shown to Fighting American who was out in the woods looking for S.P.I.C.E.. S.P.I.C.E. and the group was hidden at Badrocks place, and was supposed to stay there until they could find out who was behind the attack on S.P.I.C.E. [10].
