- Background
-
- Earth, in the year 2114, was suffering from a population crisis and
- exhaustion of natural resources. The atmospheric conditions fluctuated
- to the extreme and no life on the earth could avoid being damaged by the
- intense heat and cold. Moreover,the portent of the fourth glacial age
- accelerated colonization of other planets and migration of citizens to
- another galaxy. The Interplanetary Transit Law, which was the biggest
- obstacle for the advancement of mankind into other galaxies, was amended
- and a new space route was developed based on the space warp. There was
- soon found a planetary system that was formed around the same period as
- the Earth solar system and wished to build a utopia there. As the
- atmospheric conditions of the 4th and 5th planets were suitable for
- human habitation, each nation immediately dispatched special work forces
- to develop colonies for their benefit. With the conflict between
- countries being mostly diminished due to the formation of the Planetary
- Union, criminals remained on Earth and corrupt government officials
- united to expand their influence to immigration agencies to dominate the
- new planetary system. Their attempts continued for three years
- eventually resulting in an open revolt against the colonies. The rebel
- army was repressed by the Governor General and troops dispatched from
- the Earth. In the end the Planetary Union came under the direct
- control of the Governor General.
-
-
- The rebel army sought refuge on a planetoid near the colony and
- continued to lash out in acts of piracy against freighters and merchant
- ships that ferried between earth and the new utopia. The Governor
- General, whom did not wish to lose his soldiers in petty skirmishing,
- focused on the development of the colony. The relative peace of this
- arrangement, however, was short-lived. Unidentified life-forms attacked
- the 6th colony and completely destroyed the installation. Troops were
- sent to the colony to regain control of the situation but they were ill
- prepared to face the life-forms, and defeated outright.. Subsequently,
- mercenaries who had previously earned livings defending merchant cargo
- ships from pirate attacks, were invited with the promise of great
- rewards, to aid the Governor General troops in the destruction of
- the alien threat. Equipped with the latest high-tech weaponry, as well
- as genetically and cybernetically enhanced, the mercenaries have become
- the most powerful weapon in the fight against the creatures. The
- availability of cloning means that the only thing a mercenary need fear
- in battle, is running out of money for re-equipping and re-growing
- themselves after dying in battle. The colony, once a utopia filled with
- new hopes, has become a deadly battle field where the distinctions of
- life and death are no longer meaningful.
