It begins...

Earth 2077

"With the Earth on the verge of nuclear war...A Messiah returns to save us from an even greater evil....."

Fossil fuels are almost run dry on earth, almost over night the earth united to explore space and scour the solar system for new sources of fuel. In 2070 fuel was discovered on Ceres, the largest body in the Asteroid belt. Within 7 years the United Earth Defense Force built a massive fleet to protect the Earth and it's colonies. All was well.......

On October 15, 2077 listening post Omega-7 orbiting Charon, the moon of pluto, sitting out at the farthest reaches of our solar system for years just listening finally picked up a signal. The message was relayed back to Earth. No contact was ever re-established with the station. The crew of 3 men and 2 woman was presumed lost.

On October 23, 2077 the first bombs fell to Earth. The name of the enemy or the reason for aggression was not established. The UEDF was split, to protect the Earth and all of it's history and Ceres, the new source of humanities lifeblood.

October 23- December 24 2077 The enemy began systematically wiping out every trace of humanity in the solar system except it's last two citadels of Earth and Ceres. The morning of December 24th Christmas eve, Luna colony was overrun, all 10 million residents, and 200,000 space marines were lost. The citizens of Earth could see the moon burn from their homes. At 11:59 pm the assault on Earth began.

December 25 2077 A man fell to Earth.....
