You went to the trouble of making a Klingon Empire Rebel (These guys: http://sto.gamepedia.com/Klingon_Empire_Rebel) kill category in the accolades, but somehow it's seemingly impossible to do this:

Having a single ground one in one mission (The Undying) and 3 on the KDF side makes it the most hardcore of all NPC groups in the game to get the ground accolade on. Why can't you guys just add them to the Foundry please?

The Klingon Empire Rebel kill group is not really meant for Fedlets/FedRoms. It comes from some KDF content and is tagged so weirdly that very few KDF missions use it. I'm not sure if the KDF Fleet queues use the faction or not on the slim chance of getting Klingon enemies. Weirdly enough, with the really old (and thankfully retired) content, it was possible for Feds to get the Fed Kill accolades.

Also, adding NPC enemy groups is nice to the Foundry, but not having ANY of their NPCs available as contacts is a real nuisance if trying to do anything beyond creating a Kill Accolade farm. Prime examples here would be those that can't be made with AlienGen, such as the Na'kuhl, Krenim (Also missing NPC groups), Sphere Builders (Again missing NPC Groups), Vorgon (Again missing NPC groups), Tzenkethi (holding them off till their story arc is done is understandable).

Another thing curiously missing from the Foundry is a Malon NPC group. There are Malon NPCs for contact use and all Malon Ships (including the Dreadnought), but despite them being consistently hostile, there is no NPC group.

Seems the Foundry gang hates me and my ideas. Getting an idea of starting a thread detailing my adventures trying to get 1000 KDF Rebel kills to bore people to death.
