none

The named TaskForce is the team’s roster. Its member lines are the slots recruitment fills one at a time and the unfilled places a computer house builds toward; the total of their quantities is the strength the team counts as full at. A reinforcement group creates exactly those members instead of recruiting them. The TaskForce also supplies the team’s recruitment Group whenever the TeamType leaves its own unset.

The value is matched against the registered TaskForce IDs. <none> and none clear the reference, and a name that no [TaskForces] entry registers is not rejected: a fresh, empty TaskForce is created under that name. A team built on an empty one wants nobody, so it never reaches full strength and never starts its script — outside a campaign the unfilled-team rules dissolve it after a delay, and in a campaign it sits there for the rest of the mission.
