If you're looking for story inspiration, I recommend the Ghost In The Shell manga. The characters are government spooks rather than mercenaries.

None of the GitS adaptations get this right. They're usually employed by the government but the adaptations never get that they're "glowies" in 4chan lingo and that they are basically authoritarian and not really moral.

It's still a unique take decades later.

Appreciate the suggestion, will definitely look into reading the manga. I'm mostly familiar with Oshii's films, but I know they're not really the same as the original work by Shirow.

Right now you do technically play as government goons (basically a detached special forces squadron) who's sent to beat up the separatists, but nothing's really concrete.
