What I would prefer is a non federation aligned human group, maybe disenfranchised fed citizens that do not believe the course the federation has taken is the right one. It could be a more generic "Alliance" style of sci fi humans, maybe even have more "human" spaceship designs.. BIG, BLOCKY, and with lots of BIG HONKING SPACE GUNS!!! And most importantly without silly things like the Prime Directive (fun fact: fed citizens are not bound by it) or a need to always prove their saintlyness to others. Basically a group made up of real people lol.
Browncoats. YOU want BROWNCOATS.


(admittedly, I would love it too-regardless of how utterly ****ed up the idea really is wrt Star Trekkiness in canon.)

Give 'em the "Mercenary set" AS their uniform, and make it a breakaway colony that BELIEVED the Klingons when they said "Your government has been suborned".

Probably need to be a border planet in the NZ, and limit them to "old crap" designs-Mirandas and such, ships that they could steal or buy on the black market...
