The Secret Operations Executive, commonly known as SOE, is Aliquantus’s external intelligence agency. Under the direction of the Queen it works alongside the Security Services, Queens Governing Office Communications Headquarters and the Defence Intelligence Staff. SOE is responsible for the Aliquantus’s espionage activities overseas. The service has had its public headquarters at Damara Catwalk in central Aliquantus since 2006, the real headquarters in Aliquantus has its location kept private. As Aliquantus’s secret service, SOE provides the Queens Government with a global covert capability to promote and defend the national security and economic well-being of the Queendom of Aliquantus. SOE operates world-wide to collect secret foreign intelligence in support of the Queens Government's policies and objectives. Regional instability, terrorism, the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction and illegal narcotics are among the major challenges of the century. SOE assists the government to meet these challenges. To do this effectively SOE must protect the secrets of its sources and methods. SOE has an Astute class submarines, HMS Anachronism at its disposal, it holds less weapons for space used by the agents and are used as bases for communications, liaison and command assets.

The SOE is currently headed by Lady Tiffany who, as Secret Intelligence Minister, is abbreviated T or LT when including her title as a female Lord. The Ministry's deputy is Lady Hecuba who is classed as an operative.

Agents

Agents working for the SOE are split into two groups, the first are 'Operatives' who support operations or are staff in the Ministry Headquarters. The second are 'Executives' who carry out foreign operations. The head of the Ministry, Lady Tiffany is not classed as she runs the service; her deputy however is classed as an operative. The SOE has no male employees and because of Aliquantus's disgust of all things deficient in beauty, agents may be easy to tell apart from other nations intelligence agencies.

Recent Operations

On the 10th of March 2007 the Secret Service Vessels HMS Anachronism and a large team of agents were sent to the nation of Zambistan during the Zambistan Revolution. On the 18th of March the SOE sent a team to Nuevo Italia’s colonies under invasion by the Soulforge Cathedral.
