Intrigue Of The Stars
Hello and welcome to Intrigue Of The Stars my political simulation set in a space opera setting and inspired by such games as Destiny Of The Republic and Power To The People. The game starts on August 9th, 2089 in a space opera universe based on subspace physics which is the source of our science and technology. In our alternative history the space race between the United States and Soviet Union accelerated with the discovery the subspace particle in the 1980s reigniting the fires driving the Cold War. The Space Age saw hundreds of colonies spring up through out the Solar System aligned with either the Northern Hemispheric Treaty Organization or Moscow Pact on Earth. Increased tensions led to the Solar War which devastated humankind and ended the old order. In its place rose the technocratic Federation Of Sol which unified humanity under a technocratic republic.
Intrigue Of the Stars follows the course that the Federation Of Sol takes in entering the interstellar age. The game mechanics are partially inspired by previously mentioned games but will not be attached to an actual video game. Players will create a character according to the guidelines below and will have influence in the game measured by Political Power (PP). Every player will choose a class corresponding to a population type of our civilization which determines how you acquire political power and how your character fits into the greater scheme of things. Your orders requires a certain amount of PP and will determine the course of the game and history of humankind if successful.
OOC communication will take place entirely on the coldfront.net room designated Cosmos_Primary.
