Game Info: As in the past, the available resources for human expansion started to run thin. And as in the past, the pressure for resources forced mankind to push back the frontier of Space much like the frontiers of the past. Earth was hungry. Displacement technology appeared just in time to permit exploitation of the Solar system and man's first tentative visits to new stars.
As before, new communities of pioneers were established in these harsh new lands to oversee the exploitation of resources. But like before, it was not long before the citizens of these colonies started to wish for more
For more than a century, the interests of the Earth have clashed bitterly with the interests of the colonies. The feud has evolved into a never-ending guerrilla war in Space between the two sides:
The Commonwealth
The Earth and its colony stars constitute the Commonwealth: A power bloc, which attempts to maintain stability and unity. The Commonwealth has a massive space-going Navy. The Commonwealth Navy ships patrol space in an attempt to maintain order.
The Indies
The Indies are the manifestation of the colonists wishes for self determination. The Independence moment is a bizarre mix of pirates, terrorists and an underground political organisation.
Over the years the Indies have established a unique culture and identity. Fiercely defiant of authority, the Indies have built up a sizeable fleet of ships, made up of commercial ships and mining vessels along with military ships stolen from the Navy.
