I'll just put the raw text down here: I'll sort it out later or if you want the responsibility i'll leave it up to you.

Terra Libertas
Recently formed, Terra Libertas is a highly militant Anarchist movement, with the sole objective of overthrowing the Capitol. As their numbers gathered, the need to acquire more supplies grew. Liberating weapons and Armour from factories around the industrial district, Terra Libertas are well equipped but unorganized. Whereas CSEC fight in tight formation, always covering each others backs, Terra Libertas prefer to fight from rooftops, raining fire down onto the people below. Focused mostly in the legendary Skytower, Terra Libertas have been fierce rivals with RCM over reasons too petty to be brought up in public now. The founder and mastermind, Octavius Commodus, has spun their tale into a colorful pageant full of freedom and democracy. Of course they know they can't stand up to the full might of the CSEC armed forces, so they've been taking plenty of opportunities whilst the fleet are engaged. Sabotaging factories, stealing munitions, booby trapping roads and attacking CSEC soldiers, Terra Libertas could be on to something big.

Weapon name: PEPS Archimedes

Category: Anti Synthetic rifle

The Archimedes prototype was originally created by CSEC to combat The Torag Uprising which took place twenty years before the beginning of this Story. When they were dispatched with lethal efficiency, CSEC found they had little use for a weapon that was primarily for use against mechanoids or vehicles with an implanted AI chip. After some initial controversy surrounding the ethics of the field testing, the Archimedes was made the standard rifle for many of CSEC's combat engineers that met the rebellious Mechs that year. Compared to normal stock assault rifles, the rounds it fires are smaller and lighter than the average bullet. This comes with the upside of increased range, fire-rate and far lower recoil. However, it does mean that each shot does had incredibly poor piercing and stopping power. However, every round fired by the Archimedes is wrapped in a short-term phasic envelope, which works much like an energy shield. Impact on a target causes the envelope to explode, creating an inch-wide explosive radius with each shot and an electronic pulse with every hit. While this effect has minimal use against organic targets (although the small explosion is still enough to leave a hole in body armour, not to mention blasting through flesh), it becomes far more useful against synthetic targets. Combat androids and light mechs for example. The explosion damages armour and with enough shots can short-circuit the mech's/android's electrical systems for a short time, leaving it open to further assault. CSEC have managed to avoid the issue of having to reload both the bullets and the battery charging the envelope generator by making a single clip that powers both the envelope and contains the ammunition, making it far simpler to use than might be expected.

Weapon name: MRF (Mobile Rapid Fire) Canary Mk1

Category: Close range Submachine gun

The Canary is a surplus sub machine gun produced by the weapons manufacturer Misrah Armories. It began as a proposition for a replacement defense weapon used by engineers and special operations staff. CSEC saw the merit of a fast and maneuverable SMG to be placed within easy reach of vulnerable close quarters troops. But right before the first production run, the order of Canary's from CSEC was rescinded, as the organization had found something cheaper and more reliable in the form of Naga's new Compact SMG range. Misrah's sworn business rivals in the munitions industry. Relations between Misrah and CSEC rapidly soured; and the Canary found new life being produced and sold to Terra Libertas. That being said, The Canary still is a versatile weapons platform. It has a very high rate of fire, is easily maneuverable, and easily concealed. The design of the Thrit allows many modifications to change the performance of the weapon, and it boasts a standard clip that holds thirty five rounds.

Weapon Name: Dafthit MP1

Category: Specialist Assault Rifle

The Dafthit is another failed production run of a replacement weapon. Specifically marketed to air crews as a means of self defense, the deal fell through as the CSEC saw it more beneficial to supply the aircrews with surplus infantry weapons. Misrah Armories decided to follow the path already started by models such as the Canary and secretly market it to Terra Libertas. The Dafthit, affectionately known as the "Daffy Duck" by its users, is a weapon intended for many situations. It has a respectable rate of fire for a weapon of its kind, and exceptional accuracy. The blowback, open bolt weapon fires 5.56 rounds from a twenty round magazine, and is heavily customizable. Misrah sells many attachments for the weapon, allowing it to fit in almost any battlefield. The Dafhthit is also well known for its durability, due to its design and internal mechanisms, it is easy to replace parts, rarely needs maintenance, almost never jams, and even with sand or water inside the gun; it can still fire effectively.

None of the pictures are there so we'll need to re-source those.
