The rebels of Warpath, written as Rebs in the fluff, are a coalition of numerous alien races that oppose the Corporation. They're said to be a secret resistance, although they've been fighting the Corporation for centuries so it's hard to say how secret they really are.

Background

Composed of disenfranchised humans, survivors of Corporation genocides, and freedom fighters of conquered races. Their forces include both overt armies fighting on distant planets, as well as saboteurs hidden within Corporation ranks. On the tabletop this is somewhat represented by the difference between Deadzone and Warpath forces, although you can field any of their infantry in both formats.

Their name "Rebs" comes from a pejorative term used by Corporation forces to refer to them that they later adopted as their own. In the same vein, they call the Corporation the "Evil Empire." Yeah, wonder where they got that from...

Dreadball

The Unincorporated Rebs team of Dreadball was introduced in the Season 4 book. They're kind of an odd team in that they can customize their players to some degree by using different member races in different player positions. The kit comes with two each of Gaelians, Ralarats, Rin, and Soraks that can be run in different roles.
