Hmmm...he could survive a drop from terminal velocity/getting hit by a train? And to think it's made of junk he found in a backpack.

YOU BASTARD, YOU BROKE MY ENVG?!

Humanity never managed to expand beyond the solar system, due to the laws of physics standing in our way. However, Simple multi-generational starships have left the solar system, but strangly enough, contact was lost with them as soon as they went past the Kuiper belt. The last ship to leave ( Or attempt to ) the solar system went missing in 2037.

It is now 2057.
Humanity has advanced long since its days in 2037, Colonies have started terraforming Mars into a paradise, Venus's floating cities attract industries and tourism alike. The Moon turned into the gateway for human expansion into the cosmos. Even some of the asteroids have colonies on them, albeit small ones. It looks like there might be peace for once for Humanity.

However, All good things must come to a end. A Signal was recieved from one of our Multi-Generational Starships, The UES ( United Earth Ship ) Glasgow... The last ship to leave the solar system. The Message was met with much skepticism, With many beliveing that its simply a Message from Years back finally reaching the solar system, Others believing that the ship was still out there, but suffering malfunctions. Fewer still believed that the ship had warned humanity of its impending fate, before suffering the same end. Awhile later, Contact with the Kuiper Belt Research & Manufacturing station was lost. People was warned, ships launched, soldiers trained, weapons built and prepared.

All for Nothing.
The 1st wave smashed through the Martian Defense forces, No one knew what was happening before it was too late. By the time any resistence had even managed to be organized, The Martian Central Command Station ( Or MCCS for Short ) had been destroyed. Reports of this tragic loss was rapidly sent to populations through out the solar system. People realized soon what they was fighting. They was fighting parts of the Multi Generational Starships! But the parts was...Different. When ever a friendly ship was destroyed, A strange ship whould go to the wreckage, and re assemble it into some strange mess, that whould go forward to conquer. The 1st wave was repelled, by use of the earlier weapons from the Martian Earth Cold War. These Crude obsolete weapons saved Mars. But now the 2nd wave is incoming... And there is not enough of these obsolete weapons of war to save the colony again.

You and your team mates, are onboard the UEGS ( United Earth GunShip) Bismarck, a relativly recent design, to suppress revolts and pirates in the Asteroid Belt.

It has Simple weaponry to go along with its simple design. A Automated Medbay to ensure the crew is healthy ( This is basicly a small room with various boxs on the wall to tend to your health ), A Command center with recent Touch screen consoles to control it, and various tools on the walls ( Including a rifle cabinet on the wall, ever since the Mutiny of the UEFS ( United Earth Freight Ship ) Voyage, Where the lack of weapons in the bridge lead to the execution of Captain Fredrick. ), A Rotating swivel Mounted gun turret, bellow the front of the ship ( A Rail gun based cannon to be precise, with Standard ammunition ( More ammo types can be discovered or created in game!, so experiment a little! ), and various settings such as Standard Fire and Overdrive( Overdrive Ups the damage and rate of fire of the gun, but each turn it takes a dice roll to see if its damaged! ). Crew Quarters are included, but are rather sparse, every crew member Gets a bunk and a locker, with various forms of recreation. The Captain gets his own quarters. The Engine room contains a Nuclear Fission reactor, supplyling the power to this small ship, and to the ships Twin IonDrives, This is where the controls for the ships emergency solar sails are deployed. The cargo bay is nothing special, It features the same loading dock as normal ships, but contains the Ships ordnance, Armory, foodstuffs and a little workshop for morale reasons.
