The next is inspired by a game I used to play when I was a kid.
It is based on Warhammer 40k if you want to know.
It is the 21st millennium.
Mankind has evolved
Due to nano technology, Stem cell resource and so on we rid ourselves of diseases and prolonged our lives with hundreds of years.
Peace was settled amongst the once rivaling nations of Terra, formally named Earth. And a golden age for mankind had begun.
Working together as one united race we bettered ourselves and war was considered a part of history.
But resources started to diminish on Terra an so the United Nations of the Earth set out for the stars to colonize planets and take for our self all of the vast riches of the Universe. Starting off with Mars and then the rest of our solar system.
But a threat was lurking.
From our isolated corner of the Universe we set forth and colonized planet after planet system after system, terra-forming and mining all what we could find. The great counsel of the Nations became the Coalition of planets
Man was advancing in technology prosperity and size for thousands of years. And then we discovered the WARP.
The WARP. The parallel dimension allowing mankind to travel great distances of space, in a very short time.
It was then that we met the other species.
In our ignorance we openly sent out a meeting party consisting of top Scientists, Philosophers and diplomats. They never returned.
Soon after, we were at war loosing colony after colony to the new races. A man rose from our midst The emperor of man.
We used our technology and ingenuity and created war machines and weapons to defend us and to recon cur the lost colonies. We created war machines as great as mountains called Titans and started a campaign to free ourselves. But the enemies of man where cunning, they where losing the battle to mankind. So they devised a plan.
The moon of IO, known as the great library of man. A library stretching out over the entire surface of the moon. A Library holding all the accumulated knowledge of Man was their target
They attacked the moon with one decisive blow with only one reason to destroy all knowledge of Man.
In a desperate attempt the Librarians and ground personnel fled the moon with as much knowledge as they could! Most of them ran into the guns of our hated adversaries and the knowledge they held was gone….. forever!
Man repelled the aliens But it was too late IO was in ruins and Mankind was hurled back into the dark ages. The knowledge that was saved was sent across space in huge space ships bastions of power capable of fending off all enemy attacks. Or so we thought.
In retaliation, the Emperor of man issued a crusade against all enemies of man eradicating them from the universe.
But a new enemy was rising one far more dangerous than the foes man had encountered. Within the WARP man had awoken an ancient threat. Imprisoned their by a race unknown. The Powers of Chaos where put there for releasing untold horrors upon the universe. Creatures of such power that they are capable of changing the matter and fabric of space itself.
They watched us. Scrutinized us and made their plan the greater powers set out and started to corrupt the travelers of the WARP. Championing those they thought worthy to fight their course.
Heresy, heresy to mankind!
All hail to the Emperor, All hail to mankind.
For there is only WAR
