For five thousand years mankind has ruled amongst the stars. Five thousand years of "peace", and "harmony". But, as with all of mankind's great creations, this was doomed to wither, and die. Earth, the seat of the tyranical, and potently corrupt Union of Federated Sates, those that sent millions, perhaps billions, or maybe even trillions to their deaths. In the waning years of the UFS, millions were killed for dissent, or died in the terrible conditions that had become rampant. Until, a UFS fleet stumbled upon the world that was to be called Dusk. A world where a people lived that were supposedly not the spawn of Earth. So, the UFS in the insane grasp of the mad chairman Robert Holmes bombed the world to pieces. For the first time in 5,000 years man went to war. Worlds burned in atomic fire, pestilence stalked the known universe, and man killed beast without mercy. The "monsters" the UFS called it's foes, until a horrifying discovery was made... They were us, and we were them. Fearing the advance of the shrouded invaders, thousands of fringe worlds rose up in open revolt, while Earth was left with it's first two thousand, or so core colonies. While the supposed spawn of hell pressed ever onward. These are times of chaos, and despair, and as such, are ripe for men to take their place amongst the legends...

Factions:

UFS: The soldiers of Earth will not surrender until they are annihilated. They have highly balanced armies. They are defending an ancient government, and have countless ancient texts to fall back on in times of desperation.

SF. The Salvation Front is a loose coalition of armed militias, their weapons are weak, but they have sheer numbers.

The Hal'dyor: Descendants of lost colony ships sent to the galactic fringe, they are masters of "futuristic" weaponry. They are slow, and lumbering, but make up for it with sheer firepower. They are almost unknown to their foes, but are known to commit everything labeled a "war crime" by the UN, an ancient organization that was put aside during the First Interplanetary War. Their society is a culture based around war between various clans, but they have strict rules, something Robert Holmes had no concept of. As such, they treat their foes like they are not human. An act of revenge almost never used in their culture.
