The universe - the last great challenge for mankind. We find ourselves in the year 2300... Mankind arrives in solar systems that have been inhabited by intelligent lifeforms for years. That can only lead to arguments... The universe is inhabited by a great diversity of different races, who have found protecting with one of the four great power blocks of the universum: the Alliance of Human Life-Forms (AHLF), the Remouladiers, the Marsians and the Pecunian Hegemony. Each power block strifes to gain political, military and scientific power - and while the AHLF is always expanding, it always feels the pressure of the other powers. There is the tense atmosphere of a cold war... The discovery of new resources, the research of technological advances, trade and diplomacy are the core of this game. How aggressive it becomes is based solely on the mentality of the players. The wrong word at the wrong time can start a galactic war - the right bribe at the right place can prevent such a war. But while the powers are entwined in their enmities, others are already planning their destruction - first and foremost the apparently invincible "G'Ork" with their cubic spaceships.
