The UC Vanguard act like the protectors of the galaxy; think of them like an entire fleet of Buzz Lightyears. They are - or, at least, they like to think they are - the good guys. If you want to join UC Vanguard, then good news: it’s very easy to do so. You can literally sign up in a recruitment centre on New Atlantis and after passing an exam, learning the history of the UC Vanguard and then passing the probationary mission, you’ll become a fully-fledged UC Vanguard.]

On top of that, if you complete the UC Vanguard faction storyline (culminating with A Legacy Forged (30G)) you’ll even be able to buy a place in New Atlantis - something only UC citizens can do, and something you’ll become upon completion of the UC Vanguard faction questline. Nice!
