They're like InterPol.
Come to think of it, if I play my cards right, I'll be untouchable by any law enforcement agency on any side of the galaxy. If i supply the weapons to every single imperial, republican, sector ranger, and gunshop in the sector, the sheer threat of knocking me down a couple of pegs would essentially piss everyone off...

Des Voh Cale Darksun The Sector Rangers are unaffiliated space cops concerned only with arresting dangerous criminals. You would need NR Intelligence to compete with Imperial Intelligence. Completely unaffiliated? Quote: While local law enforcement agencies were restricted by jurisdictional boundaries, the Sector Rangers were able to pursue criminals anywhere within a given sector, from one star system to another. Since the Sector Rangers were concerned with law enforcement and peacekeeping matters and not military or political issues, they remained largely unchanged during the Imperial era except in name, then referred to as the Imperial Sector Rangers. Technically they answer to COMPNOR, but with the collapse of Imperial Authority, they probably "Answer" to the Sector Government. The New Republic is trying to replace them with the New Republic Security Force, but NRSI is still mostly a Military Police Force.

My guess is kind of like the bounty hunter system. Wherever they bring in their criminals to pays the duty taxes on the issues. I'd imagine they're funded by the local planetary governments in most cases, since they'd essentially be performing extradition of sorts, and criminals brought back to their planet of crime would receive funding up front too. Due to the network found on each government, the ranger offices would be directly financed by the planetary taxes.
That'd be the most effective way to really run the setup.

Thats what I was trying to figure out, but the info on Wiki is very-much lacking.
I would expect, as they Empire had control over it during its rein, that the Republic now does, after COMPNOR lost its hold over it in 6 ABY. And that it is an extension of Republic Security.
Which brings me to this, would a neutral Sector allow itself do be protected by it in that point of fact?

They care about snagging smugglers, murderers, and pirates, the type of people who are a threat to the populace.

Prioritizing the most violent criminals as their prey without a doubt.
Being a neutral sector in a highly unstable atmosphere there's probably some local pirates to chase as well as those terrorists that Cale will be playing.
Course the Imperial Navy and the Republic Navy both have a vested interest in chasing down Pirates at this point, maybe I should go pirate hunting for part of the campaign.

Here's my suggested breakdown by faction.
Republic/imperial- Trying to assert political dominance after getting blamed. mostly fighting the other political dominance, along with demonstrating to populace that they're stronger by focusing on law enforcement when they aren't in battle.
Sector rangers- Hunting terrorists and pirates. Maybe taking down my smugglers every now and again.
Terrorists- Trying to just get everything into chaos, mostly attacking any faction to provide the most disruption. Kinda Tyber Zann-ish, but with political aspirations.
Me- Just trying to run a profitable, mostly-legit buisness.

Since the Sector Rangers are primarily Imperial affiliated, they could also use some pull to get Imperial fleet units to assist them on occasion in their hunt for criminals.
Being the only Interdictor in the Sector, I guess I'm on call by the Rangers. If you know a criminal is traveling along route X just give me a call and I'll intercept em.

Let's try not having huttlords and such. A terrorist organization is bad enough without having more neutral chaos.
Plus, we want to encourage people to take sides so that it's not one terrorist, one imp, one NR, and everyone else jerking off on the sidelines.

At this point, I'd wager the Sector Rangers are in a bad spot, half being Imperial Affiliated, some keeping to themselves in neutral areas, and the rest out of a job because of the NRSF. Because the orginal rangers were converted by the Empire, an organization put in place by the Old Republic, its likely they would have been completely decommissioned by the Republic as they were once apart of COMPNOR.
This Sector probably being one of the few either still with Imperial affiliations, or, as Nelo suggested, on the local governments payroll.
I myself would like to thinhk of them as the Lawfull Neutral guys in all this, just trying to put a puzzle together and catch Cale.

Why I say you could call on my ship is that my job is much the same as Imperial Customs. I drag ships out of hyperspace, make em surrender for inspection, and let em go if they aren't carrying anything illegal. There's good reason a sizable portion of the Interdictor fleet defected to the New Republic. They're more loyal to keeping peace and security in their sector then they are to the galactic government.
