[QUOTE="Blackrat, post: 3678636, member: 27761"] [I]They burned the sky! You were on the last transport from ISS to colonyship Unity. Looking through the window you saw the black ship appearing from nowhere, immediatily opening fire at Earth. It seemed to launch thousands of glowing missiles that exploded as they reached the athmosphere. Zeus and Juno tried desperatily to harm the ship but to no avail. Your last image of Earth was a burning planet in the background as Zeus rammed the black planetkiller, and then it was gone as your transport docked with Unity... It's been over a decade since Earth was caught in the middle of Areq'dah civil war and destroyed but the vision haunts your dreams still. You grew on this barren rock, in colony-station Unity listening to freighterpilots telling stories of the wonders of the universe: -About Earth. How it's covered by a red cloud which no sensor can penetrate. -About Areq'dah killing themselves to almost extinction in their civil war. -About Galactic Rebuplic of Free Stars, formed by the former slave-races of Areq'dah imperium, and how they overthrew their distracted masters.[/I] Never run a PbP before but I think I might give it a try. The idea is a homebrew scifi universe using the SW-saga edition rules minus the force-related stuff and using PL and eguipment rules from D20 modern/future. Humankind has been exploring the stars for only a few decades when Earth is destroyed in a galactic civil war. A decade later the few hundred thousand survivors live in cramped colony-stations, living their lives as outcasts of the universe, warring with eachother, commercing with the less hostile aliens and hoping that someday, someone will find an uninhabitet planet with earthlike conditions. PC:s will be young adults who were still children when Earth was lost. They have been given command of a small commercial freighter owned by Far-Star Trading Company and a status of privateers by Unity's Council. Now preparing to take the old rustbucket-of-a-ship out for the first time. Right now just seeing if there is any interest in the idea. [/QUOTE]
