The Hive is an incredibly powerful and absolutely enormous starship, housing complex machinery and hundreds of thousands of citizens and crew. As of yet, however, the ship and its crew are completely untested. You barely had time to finish your training before being locked inside this behemoth and prepared for the journey to an uncharted region outside the territory of the Empire, with orders to conquer or destroy whatever and whoever gets in your way.However, as if this task were not difficult enough, the third Imperial Princess accompanies you. Forced to give her only child up for adoption by her mother, as part of the insane scheme which brought you to this, she is proving to be less than cooperative. You suspect that many of those on board would place their loyalty to their Princess above their loyalty to you. You hope however, that those loyalties will never have to be tested.Using the power of one of the most ancient relics of the Royal family, the Hive and its sister ships have been sent on a one way trip through the Astral Wastes to their individual destinations. During the trip, all ports and sensors have been darkened or turned off, for in the old stories there are many stories of a strange sickness of the mind that befalls those that see or hear its wonders. Finally, the Hive re-enters normal space. The engineers inform you that the second batch of the Hive's first generation mecha is nearing completion. You give the orders for all sensors and port windows to be brought online. What greets you is the sight of two alien fleets, fighters blossoming into fiery explosions, frigates and capital ships breaking up. And then, you see the missiles heading streaking towards you.</blockquote>
