i just can't remember when i have seen the fs community this excited about a project (sarcasm). Here's the deal, the year is 2764, the GTVA has created 4 realms, and although it holds no planets itself, it is the ruling body. Each realm was a separate entity under GTVA control. The GTVA has fallen and each of the four realms are vieing to replace it. Peaceful negotiations have fallen aside, and war erupts between all four realms. You get to choose which realm you fight for, you get to choose where you move your fleet(s) to, and you get to either rule all of known space, or you get to get blown away by the oposition.
