It is the year 2277. Man has conquered space travel, and has begun the necessity that is colonizing the planets of their local star space, known as the Genesis System. Their home planet, Gaia, is no longer their first choice; it is for the destitute and the unwanted. Those deemed 'valuable' or 'necessary' have been shipped to colonized planets, and everyone else scrapes up what cash they have to get the same opportunity.

As more planets became populated, ruling parties on all colonies formed a collective government, operating as a singular ruling organisation for all colonised planets in the system, known as the Galactic Coalition. The GC runs centrally through the Zion Station, a massive space vessel large enough to harbour a population almost equal to some of the planets that Man colonised, and the only one of its class.

But the Galactic Coalition, however idealistic, sadly cannot keep order throughout the light-years of the Genesis System across the several colonies without a considerable military force. And so, it is a considerable military force that the GC has created - the GC Military. Conscripting from all colonies, and even from Gaia, recruitment is consistently successful, mostly due to fresh recruits being offered free passage to Boot Camp, and a home on one of several colonised planets after two to four successful terms of deployment, depending on each assignment.

You are one such recruit, heading for your training camp on Primitus, the first colonised planet, and now used solely for Coaltion VIP's and military operations. You are awaiting touchdown, preparing for training, and hoping that your deployments will not result in a painful death. For whatever reason you joined up, you're here now, under the employment of the Galactic Coalition. You just hope your new life is better than the one you left.

Gear up, soldier. You're arriving.


-

Welcome to the 88th Unit of the Galactic Coalition Military. You are a soldier, either freshly conscripted, undergoing training, or currently off-duty from planetary deployment. Shipped in from one of several homes - Gaia, Primitus, Calidum, or one of the moon colonies - you have joined the GC Military for your own reasons, and you will be trained and deployed for the Coalition's reasons.

In this RP, you will be trained, deployed, extracted, put on resting leave, and deployed again. You will become immersed in the Genesis System, Mankind's local solar system, into which they have branched out from their homeworld of Gaia. Your character growth is your own, but your orders are to be followed.

I'm looking for interested players (preferably between 5 and 8) who are, in turn, looking for a structured, long-term roleplay with a good pace and an in-depth, branching plot line. I hope we can meet on middle ground.

Register your interest here, and hopefully I'll see you in the roleplay at a later date!

It will be detailed further in the OOC, but military equipment will be more advanced than current tech, while remaining grounded and avoiding energy-based weaponry and technology like flying cars, etc. In all honesty, it will borrow from similar universes such as Halo, Syndicate, and Dredd. Guns will still be ballistic, vehicles are either on-planet wheeled vehicles or off-planet transport vessels (there are no 'fighter ships', or similar personal-use space vessels), and armour will be tactical with modifications.

Always a good thing to have on a team. If possible, I'd like to steer my guy towards being a pilot.
