They built a special unit inspired by the Fianna and adapted it to high-tech combat for Fionn to lead. He was brought to Aquatica to help in  The Chaos Wars  With Fionn 6 of his elite troops were transported with him to help train the new unit. They were the core of this new unit. In the decade of the Chaos Wars, the Fianna were a fierce and destructive unit in the world.
