Flexos is detailed in Spinward Marches System Guide 2 FLEXOS from Comstar Games. Campaign specific additions are detailed below.

Flexos Army

Flexos has a small permanent military force that is armed with portable energy weapons such as Laser Rifles that have been smuggled in from off-planet since it does not have the technology to build its own. Apart from the Laser Rifles, the arsenal of this army consists mostly of projectile weapons and should be chosen from the Planetary Defense Force (PDF) lists. The standing army uses the PDF reaction charts too and has Comm Links.

There is also a Planetary Militia. All citizens must undertake basic training (usually 1 year) followed by a minimum of two weeks' training each year thereafter. The Planetary Militia are organised the same as the Gaea Prime PDF but use the Planetary Militia reaction charts.

Flexos Police Force

The Police Force on Flexos consists of temporarily serving militia members and is treated exactly as the Planetary Militia, except that, when on patrol, they will carry Pistols and Nightsticks (One-handed Weapon) rather than Assault Rifles. One Shotgun is carried in each Police Cruiser too. Thanks to the off-world smugglers, the police have Comm Links.

Tactical Response Units

The Tactical Response Units are a special branch of the police. They will arrive on the scene with heavy firepower, and should be treated exactly as the Flexos Planetary Militia, with the same range of weapons, although high-explosives will tend not to be used, because of damage to property. Like the police, they have Comm Links.
