The year is 2378

Sol3 (Earth) has been transformed from its contact with three alien races. First contact was never made with the short, large eyed race (the White), back in the late 20th Century. Extreme contact occurred later with the subversive parasite race (the Red). This left Sol3 technically advanced but totally unprepared for the casual brutality of the huge and technically advanced insectoid race (the Blue) that followed.

Humans are not a conquered race, they don't rate that highly. Their planet has been "harvested" thrice since the Blue first came. The first trip took a measley 5 million people, the next 20 million, and the last 40 million. Humans have been taken for a combination of slave labour, Red hosts, and when they serve no further purpose, food.

The Alliance Command has been unable to stop any of these attacks, but they have a plan. Send a task force to gain valuable technology, rescue as many people as possible and get back before the next harvest.

This game is that mission, or what's left of it.

Single session for five players, a futuristic systemless, combat orientated
with strong characterization, written by Nigel Cunningham.
