Feds want to arrest/kill all Hackers or prevent the target node from being hacked. They can wait out the time limit and are the minor faction. This faction is the main hostile faction, they have the most varied game patterns. They can work with Paragon.
Feds get access to a set of operatives. These operatives must contain at least one Fed on the Field and Leading Fed. The Fed Leader can control those operatives.
Feds know node health and node topology.
Feds must figure out each operative's role using their action space.
Many actions can increase or decrease wanted level. Your operatives will slowly be more or less wanted. If your wanted level is too high, an operative will be killed. This operative can be chosen. If all operatives die before your objective is finished, you lose.
Actives and passives that deceive or compromise will be labelled by how Wanted Level is changed, with Wanted Level total HP as 5 HP.
