FACTION:Martian Front
By the first half of the 3rd millenia man has colonized the solar system. The economic cost of the First Space Boom sent the old-earth powers into a recession from which they would never recover. A new world order emerged after a century of war-a totalitarian government that unified the remaining earth powers and placed the colonies under their direct control. The colonies, left to fend for themselves for nearly a century while Earth waged war, lacked any real means of military power and quickly signed a treaty with the new government. They became vassals to the regime, policed by the elite space armada known as SKYGUARD, hardened veterans of a centuries old war. Martian Factions are openly rebellious-It is the year 3129 and power is changing hands once again.
This is the interest check for a political/military and trade RP taking place on Mars. I'm going to be upfront that simple stats will be used to make sure combat is fair and favorable to the superior tactician. Factions can be anything a player wishes that fits into the setting-disgruntled colonists,a miners consortium, corporate funded terrorists, mercenaries for hire or anything else you can talk me and the other players into. I would hope that players could bring some interesting ideas while sticking to the core aesthetic of the setting. Let's write something great together! I hope for this game to last for a while-so I'm not going to rush into posting the main OOC just yet-I have a 10,000 word OP to edit and share so stick around!
The setting is inspired by (and in no particular order):Total Recall(1990), The Red Rising Trilogy, the Red Faction Video Game series, C&C:Red Alert, Red Planet, SpaceBase 2000, Dune 2:The Battle for Arrakis(1992) etc..etc...
