Battle for Earth Strikes Back! (Map Game)

The year is 1965. The Cold War is at a hot point. America is tied up in the Vietnam War, sparking the hippie movement. Meanwhile, the Beatles have struck big in Europe and America. The Space Race is in full swing. The motivation to explore space is high, though if anyone knew what was out there, mankind would happily stay on Earth.

In July, Mariner 4 flew by Mars and discovered something shocking: a lone spacecraft of unknown origins flying toward the Red Planet. The craft impacted on Mars and exploded. Fingers pointed at the Russians, but the Russians denied the capability of this. Attempts to get to the craft began immediately. Little did humanity know they were stepping into affairs beyond them...

Welcome to Battle for Earth Strikes Back, a reboot of the BFE map game series.

LET THE GAMES BEGIN

'I want to add one more thing. Be realistic with how you interact with the Humans. Do not automatically align your alien nation with your Human one.'

'''So... shall we start a new turn?'''
 * Mech Network: A signal from an ancient artifact is discovered. The artifact, a relic from the Phantom Empire called The Forge, was last seen above Earth, where it crashed in the Yucatan Peninsula 64 MYA. It is likely to be a power fluctuation, but all readings and simulations from the Mechs indicate that power tics were supposed to have stopped half a million years after The Forge's destruction. The cause of this power fluctuation is to be investigated.
 * YES! I feel like honestly crying!
 * A Centrian Attack fleet picks a supposedly empty system in sector V29 for a set of military exercises; only to find a sentient race inhabiting the system. Analyzing the race's transmissions, it is found that these 'humans' are a divided race, possesing basic nuclear technology and space travel to the upper atmosphere. Corufrey is notified of these events, and the 68th Grand Fleet is mobilized to the system- taking care such that the humans do not notice them.
 * Praetorian Empire We discover a system with a small, but highly advanced for its size, civilisation. We send the 3rd uplifter fleet to the system, careful that the humans do not notice us. The plan is to land on the most hostile landmass with sentinents, as we need to have the ability to uplift them, and remain hidden. We also send infiltrators with the fleet, to take human form and guide Human Governments.
 * Australia: A space program is begun, and a location for the research base is selected, deep in the out back, but is not used as of yet.
 * Dravimosian Empire:
 * January: The Empire detects a spaceship crash in an uncharted system that is known to have a sentient species in it. The Empire and its military organizes a small scout force to investigate. A few small economic reforms are established to ensure better trade amongst the races of the Empire.
 * February: The Empire lets slip in a state dinner that negotiations with the Brudahka are progessing at a nice pace. As a result, many complaints are issued from embassies at the Empire's capital. The military increases security at the negotiation site to prevent any nation from tampering with the negotiations.
 * March: The scout fleet of seven frigates, two diplomatic ships, and one research vessel reach the outskirts of the system. They remain well outside the Oort Cloud at the time being. The military capture twenty-seven Polarans on a derelict ship and send them to the Polaran Reconstruction Government for medical treatment and rehabilitation.
 * Soviet Union:
 * January: The Soviet Union continues its space program, and notices an anomaly outside of Mars. When that anomaly crashes into Mars, the government demands to know what it is. An inability to answer results in demands of a Mars space probe mission.
 * February: Military upgrades continue. Nuclear testing continues.
 * March: By now many governments want to know what the anomaly on Mars was. Warsaw Pact nations nervously ask if it was the Soviet Union while capitalist nations angrily demand to know. Both groups of nations are told the same answer: the Soviet Union has no idea what is going on.
 * Japan: Japan builds up its Self Defence Forces. Meanwhile Takuya Yokoyama begins writing a manga called Satori Maiden, and the main character of the manga is Satori Komeiji.
 * Oriental Hermit Republic: Prime Minister Kyōzhou Arimoto begins plans to explore outside of the Oriental Hermit's Domain. The military is built up.
 * Sith Empire: the high judge of the empire is declared insane afte suffering drom an ukown desise . a slave revolt happens on dromund kaas.
 * Yeah, that's not happening. I know Star Wars lore too.
 * Lol. I was gonna wait to see his next move. Yay for the Old Republic
 * The Regenetech Empire continues its normal affairs. Intelligence reports a crash in the nearby Sol System, infamous in Regen legend (rhyme time!) as the Forsaken Zone, a system where the powers of the Force are disrupted. Despite the hard work of millimillenia, only a few individuals are known to possess galaxy-wide Force powers, and each of them is trained in Regen style hand-to-hand combat to be leaders in an upcoming galactic war predicted by the Senate. Legendary Senator Deo Floqre dies, ending a centuries-old peace between the Baurnbims and Koskar zibbens.
 * Scraw. You just deleted the post above for the same reason. 'The Force', Scraw? The Force? 
 * That was Crim, and a name is different from a thing. There's no "these aren't the droids you're looking for," just telekinesis. For lack of a better name. If I translate it, it probably becomes Gwerferferrvfibrvekhfrkn jrefdnkjefwvscd or something.
 * Wondrous.
 * US does whatever it was doing OTL 1965. However, the recent event spotted on Mars by Mariner 4 is rather strange. The government keeps this a close guarded secret and quietly asks the Soviet government if they are the perpetrators responsible for this incident. However, the news that the communists are also at a lost is accepted by the United States, which then proceeds to redirect funds into the space program, while adding more funding to the Mariner and Apollo projects.
 * Rasheen Kingdom: So far we have found on our travels across the vast space, nothing more than small planets and asteroids with resources, but we haven't found any sign of advanced sentient races ... however, our Scout Fleet recently detected weak yet multiple (and diferent) energy signatures traveling through the subspace to what it seems to be an Uncharted Area....the fleet led by the Scout Ship RSS Khöja is decided to find out the origin of such signatures, so after sending a messenger ship back to Arr-Rota to inform it's findings, the fleet it's on it's way towards the closest located point of origin of these signatures, we must be careful, we don't know what we may find.
 * Argentina: President Arturo Umberto Illia goverment has dedicated most of the national budget to Education (23%), reducing medicaments prices, controling National Petroleum (1963) and sustain an economic policy dedicated to regulate the public sector while impulsing the Industries and protecting the minimun wage for the workers, however, President Illia has found multiple problems from political Enemies mostly Peronist (which party is proscripted`) and the Military Leadership, attached to the "Nacional Security Doctrine", which seeks preventing the expansion of Left Politics Ideas and Military guerrillas in the country.
 * In India, PM Shastri announces a modernization plan for India's infrastructure. Meanwhile, the events on Mars spark interest in founding a proper Space program in India.
 * Canada: We do whatever we where doing OTL 1965. We ask the USA if we can merge our space progams so that we can reach the moon earlier then the Reds. We start a research progam to improve hydrolic energy and to make it more reliable.
 * Holy Protectors of Kryantychog(I will use HPK from now on, ok): Mighty Kryantychog enlighten our high-priest with a vision of a small advanced civilization somewhere in the outskirts of an space arm. We send a scout to this star to see if they are potential followers of Kryantychog.
 * Meridan Consul: A series of domestic economic programs are enacted to increase the productivity of our developed planets. Jobs are offered by the government to millions of citizens, creating large infrastructural projects across the Core Systems. In the region of Meridian on Monsmanu the cities of Xerstalinus and Vitaverna are revamped with sprawling skyscrapers of non-Euclidean geometry. Older, smaller buildings in the region of Incipientes are planned to be replaced by huge housing units, hoping to reduce crowded overpopulation. A commission for the creation of thirteen more shipyards per core region planet is passed, hoping to increase our production of starships. A new line of Space Carriers known as the Atlos-class is created, measuring about 30% longer in length than the previously standard Xherlygh-class. The Atlos-class will be armed with about the same firepower as a battleship, as well as carrying about two hundred ninety-five fighter ships. The new class of ships immediately goes into production. Mass production of battleships, battlecruisers, and destroyers also continues, to adequately protect our carrier fleets. Rather than spread out across the galaxy, we adopt a colonization strategy of settling all nearby planets first, tapping into all celestial bodies within our power, within our immediate area. Large sections of our fleet are stationed to protect the outskirts of our territory in regional bases, standing by to protect mining operations across the nation. Shipments of ores and other resources begin to reach all corners of the nation, as our large mining ships tap into once unreachable asteroids and other targets. We send peaceful envoys to chart the nearby galaxy. A diplomat is sent to Cy’ral Federation and the Dravimosian Empire to discuss a trade agreement. We also contact the Firstborn and ask for a non aggression pact.
 * The Caborr State sends a few small support vessels to accompany the Dravimosian fleet. Some of the leading xenologists and linguists are sent, to further analyze the species.

1965.75
 The Soram State, whose ship crash landed on Mars three months ago, send a small fleet to the Sol system, staying outside Pluto's orbit. 

 'The Firstborn (damn it Pita) mobilize their forces at the gaffe of the Dravimosian Emperor two months ago. They accept the non-aggression pact of the Meridians.'  '''It takes a turn to travel there. Also, no destroying Earth'''
 * Mechs: A scout fleet is mobilized as the location of The Forge is pinpointed to a star system. Further scans occur from Mech Space as the scout fleet leaves Mech Space at a speed under FTL to avoid drawing attention to their hyperspace signatures near Mech Space.
 *  Promethean Diplomacy:  We ask for the Mech Network to join our quest to save the galaxy from a potential threat:the humans. In exchange we will secure the Forge and hand it over to you.
 * Nobody knows the Mechs even still exist right now.
 * Humans... a threat. You're FUNNY!
 * Japan: Japan builds up its Self Defense Forces. Meanwhile Takuya Yokoyama continues writing a manga Satori Maiden.
 * Chinese Diplomacy: We ask for the people of Japan to join an emergency meeting at the UN.
 * Oriental Hermit Republic: Prime Minister Kyōzhou Arimoto continues plans to explore outside of the Oriental Hermit's Domain and begins to have a fleet prepared. The military is built up.
 * Promethean Empire:We begin a massive arms buildup and a massive invasion force to Earth after half a year ago detecting Sol, believing that the humans should they continue their current path, will share the same fate as our empire. Our fleets head for Praetorian Space and begin attacking their fringe worlds and as our fleet arrives on Sol, we decide to send a few ships to capture the Lunar base the Praetorians have as a staging area for our invasion. (Algo Help Please) The rest of the fleet enters Earth orbit and prepares to nuke the planet. SECRET: The true intentions of our invasion remain simple:enslave the humans for our own purposes. We also send some infiltration units to Earth to test our new mind control technology on key world leaders, starting with the Soviet leadership.

'''Well, he can try. He just won't succeed. '''

'''Have I missed something? He has a fleet set up outside Earth, in orbit, with thousands of nukes, yet he won't succeed... '''

'''He has a couple of dozen ships. I'm going to destroy his fleet and homeworld next turn. My fleets have 5000 each. And I have 700 of them.''' Canada Continue all the stuff we where doing OTL. We want to investegate the light from Mars and we need to take some action and to send a spacecraft to investegate the light. We suggest that all NATO nation work together to get this spacecraft as early as possible done.
 * (As Centrians) PROMETHANS! CEASE AND DESIST YOUR VILE ATTMPTS TO DESTROY THE THIRD PLANET FROM MOSTREV. After we all reach a consensus on what to do with them you may return to your self-destructive follies.
 * China:We continue whatever we are doing in OTL 1965 just like the Americans. We call for an emergency meeting at the UN to discuss the problem with the alien craft several months ago and begin our space program for funding in an attempt to compete with the Americans and the Soviets.
 * Praetorians: The fleet arrives in the Sol System. We discover the most inhospitable inhabited Continent, which is a single land mass, most of it desert. We set up a base camp in the desert, using stealth technology to arrive undetected. A few hundred miles from camp a human vehicle is discovered, with 4 humans that appear dehydrated. We take them back to camp, and 4 infiltrators take their place, driving the vehicle across the desert to the nearest settlement. The humans are revived, and we are learning their language. We declare that we will protect the human race from any harmful incursions. We make contact with the Promethean Fleet, and do not believe that they are truly coming in peace, as they openly say they are an invasion fleet. A secondary base is set up on the far side of the moon. SECRET: Infiltrators are sent to the Promethean Empire. Using the shape shifting ability, they are able to gain high up positions in the Promethean Government, and, although they do not do anything suspicious, they are able to report back on the true plans of the Promethean Empire. In response to this troubling news, more weapons are sent to the Sol System, and we begin to further explore the home world of the Evil Ones. We discover many disgustingly brutal weapons, but, faced with no option, we are forced to manufacture more, as we need anti-fleet weaponry. Assassins are sent into Promethean fleets, and kill the admirals, then blow up the ships, before jumping into space, destroying the Promethean Fleets at Sol.
 * Promethean Diplomacy: Listen, we do NOT want a fight with you guys and we can respect you are trying to protect the humans, but they have nuclear weapons and its a clear violation of intergalactic law(if there even is intergalactic law). We also estimate that their world will be drained of its resources by Earth year 2110. For the good of the galaxy, they must be disposed of.
 * Just so everyone knows, there is no Intragalactic Law, but you could very well claim that there is.
 * Praetorian Diplomacy: Yeah... no. We will not allow an imperialistic empire commit Genocide on a species purely due to the fact that you as a race had a nuclear war. That is your failing. Not theirs. There is no intergalactic law. Also, if there was, We would say that lying about your motives so as to gain a slave species is against it. Turn your fleets around.
 * Promethean Diplomacy: Very well, then you will die in protecting the humans.
 * Praetorian Diplomacy: We shall see who dies and who succeeds Prometheans. We shall see.
 * Australia: Plans continue for a Launch Base for ASA to be in the Outback. A news story in Alice Springs is reported in National News as a sub story, as 4 tourists return from the outback, 3 days after they should have died according to experts. They simply shrugged and said 'We found water'
 * Chinese Diplomacy:We want Australia to join an emergency meeting at the UN.
 * HPK: We request that everybody leaves the humans alone, they are no treat to any of us. We suggest to first closely investigate them and then see what we need to do. We also begin producing more warships for self-defense.
 * Soviet Union: The Soviet Union continues its military drills in the face of worldwide confusion over the Mars incident. Warsaw Pact nations gravitate even closer towards the Soviet Union due to fears over what is happening. Some in the Soviet Union start to advocate annexation of such states, arguing that a united commonwealth of workers would fair better in a war with the West, who is commonly thought to be behind the Mars Incident. Nikita Khruchev (?) does not support such ideas at this time. We will meet at the U.N., also known as the talk page.
 * Centria sends fleets to occupy the 6th planet from the Sun, known to us as Mostrev. In addition to the 3rd, 7th, and 23rd Assault Fleets, the 8th, 9th, and 92nd Battle Hives, and the 4th Grand Fleet, the First Sigma, the most dangerous fleet in the entire Centrian military, consisting of the elite ships and soldiers, is sent to establish a fleet on the moon of Titan, while the other fleets are kept orbiting Saturn. We suggest a meeting between the races assembled, but warn that any attempt to attack the humans or even make themselves known to the humans, will result in a massive counteroffensive from our combined fleets, to the point even of the deployment of Sigma Fields.
 * Praetorian Diplomacy: We will attend the meeting.
 * India makes a breakthrough in it's pursuit of nuclear weapons. The war against Pakistan comes to a halt with the momentous events on Mars. An armistice is agreed, and soldiers exchanged on each side.
 * Dravimosian Empire: The Emperor suffers the criticism of the press for his gaffe three months ago. To make amends, he visits a prominent military facility on the fringes of Dravimosian space to ease the criticism of endangering the armed forces. The military, including the four offensive battle groups and two of the defensive battlegroups, are fully mobilized and moved closer to Firstborn space in case war breaks out. The Sol Recon fleet detects some unverifiable signals around and in the system, and the fleet's captain files a report to the Empire suggesting an increase of ships to the fleet. The fleet moves closer to the orbit of Neptune, staying out of sight. The Empire accepts the trade agreement of the Meridians.
 * Meridian Consul: All domestic economic programs continue, putting millions of lower class citizens into work to improve the infrastructure of our core planets. The creation of advanced shipyards of space vessels continues, with several being laid down across Meridian and Incipientes in Monsmanu alone. The first Atlos-class carriers are almost down mass production, and they are planned to be incorporated into the military within the next few months. Mining operations continue, leading to the creation of a well oiled production line, and a standardized system for transporting minerals and ores across the nation. We are please that diplomatic ties have been opened between us and some neighboring nations.
 * The United Kingdom's Prime Minister, Harold Wilson (Labour) issues a statement calling the observations on Mars "a matter of international concern" and "requiring a bilateral agreement between NATO and Warsaw" before a response can be adequately found. We threaten our UN veto if these conditions aren't met. Furthermore, we establish the UK Space Agency in order to "establish, protect, and defend our interests in Outer Space." A mission to the moon is their current project, but it will take at least 5 years to perfect a rocket and missile, so the mission is tentative for 1973.
 * Denmark: Prime Minister Jens Otto Krag leads a campaign toward European cooperation and unity. A referendum is sponsored by him for Denmark to join the European Economic Community. An effort is made to increase the Danish navy. A design for a new torpedo boat/fast attack ship known as the SØLØVEN-Class is approved. The ship will measure 30.33 m in length, and will be armed with 1-2 ea 40 mm Machine Gun Mk M/48 LvSa (2x1), 2-4 ea 533 mm Torpedo Tubes (4x1), and 2 ea Illumination Rocket Launcher (on forward gun). More DELFINEN-Class submarines are also commissioned. We ask for a trade agreement with West Germany, Sweden, and Norway, and hope to have a larger role in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization.
 * Rasheen Kingdom: We are amazed to find out the existence of several alien species thriving and mobilizing through the vast space...However, most of them seems to be very aggressive and highly militarized; we also have arrived to a system of 8 planets with a singular G-Type Star, on this system there are several mineral resources, however there are civilizations slowly stabilizing...the only local species seems to be a Mammal based hominids on the 3rd planet not very evolved yet, however we're detecting nuclear technology, we must gather more info on them. We're sending our fastest messenger ships back to Arr-rota in order to inform the Queen and the Highest ones about our findings, we'll remain in This Solar system awaiting for orders and attempting to contact other species.
 * Argentina: Illia's Goverment is getting weaker by the minute, even though he has several supporters, the military and several key entrepreneurs are plotting against him...on other notes, there are plans for starting the construction of a Nuclear Power Plant, we have the engineers and the materials, but we do nt possess the experience, so it will take a while, also, The Military and the Civilian "Comisión Nacional de Investigaciones Espaciales" (National Space Research Commission) is currently developing an small indigenous rocket vehicle with both civilian/military potential uses code named: "Orion-1", however, we've been using for practice the American "Castor" Rocket since 1960.
 * Sith Empire: a lone ship appears at our capital worlds space station. When a boarding party is sent the ship opens fire on the shuttles. The shuttles were destroyed and the  EMP gun from the station fires and disables the ship then another boarding party is sent. A firefight breaks out in the ships hanger. After the engagement we soon found out that they were rouge Promethean warriors. We tell if this happens again it will be war.
 * Praetorian Diplomacy: We offer an Alliance against the Prometheans.
 * Azaranians: After deciding to act on the automated warning, and the intel gathered that other Alien Nations are starting to ammas near a supposedly secret zone...the Galleon System, where the Azaranian set up a xenoevolutionary research station millenia ago...The Galleon-4 Relay, by way of QEC remote control, uses the last of its juice to send a team of scientists to asses the damage, and get the relay in working order. All the required materials to fix it if need be, including construction replicators, are sent through the realy. The ETA for completion of the relay repairs is half a year at most. If push comes to shove, the Azaranian governement, in a secret meeting with the High-Senators-Military, decide to put the first fleet on a course to Galleon after repairs, and plan to terraform a makeshift base around the Relay(about 1000 sq km at first). The Azaranians prepare the 2nd and 104th fleets to be mobilized as they monitor the Firstborn-Dravimos situation...Due to the Nature of the Transporation realays, a giant spur of light was visible from the red planet for a brief moment, even visible from earth for a full 5 seconds as a large elongation from the red planet, and detected by most observatories and telescopes, leaving the nations of earth to ponder the connection between the mars incident, and the light spurring from mars' surface. Any non-humans in the galleon system would have noticed this event too, despite the Azaranian scientists stealth systems, they would have detected their entry.
 * Rasheen Diplomacy: Unknown space fleet we detected your entry into this solar system, if you are listening we peacefully greet you, this is the RSS Khöja a scientific ship from the Rasheen Kingdom's Scout team, we are in no hostile intentions to you, If you are interested in continue peaceful talks please let us know, we are currently moving between the L-5 Point and the main equator of the sixth planet of this system.
 * The Centrians are interested to note that despite the fact that we have put up massive defenses all over the 6th planet you persist in attempting to reach it. We would like to know your reasons- before we destroy your fleets.
 * Rasheen Diplomacy: The Sixth planet from the Star seems an interesting mining place for it's gases and minerals by their nearby moons, we are a peacefull race Centrians and we'll leave your territory but be warned any unprovoked attack will not go Unanswered.
 * Caborr ships stay close to their Dravimos counterparts, intercepting television and radio signals, attempting to find out more about this new species.

1966
'''Following the attack orchestrated by rogue Promethean warriors, there is a general call for greater security across the galaxy. Many in the Sith Empire begin advocating for a crackdown on galactic piracy and crime to protect outlaying colonies and trade routes.'''

''' Human nations are beginning to get really scared after the Azaranian Relay Event last month and increased signals from Saturn. Militaries around the world are readied. '''

''' The situation on the edges of Firstborn-Dravimosian space is at a standstill. '''

''' The Ariax (?) Empire positions its fleet somewhere in the Sol system. '''

''' The Firstborn sees the Prometheans and the Human situation as perfect to undercut the Grand Alliance, and so gathers more of its forces. Its allies rally their forces as well. '''


 * Xlax Imperium: We Denounce the promethians existance, and cut all trade with them. We continue to explore new lands for trade. We also build up our military and defense


 * East Germany: We send a group of 20 people into West Germany, mainly young people. We investigate the flash on the red planet, we also build up our military
 * Japan: Japan builds up its Self Defence Forces. Meanwhile Takuya Yokoyama continues writing the manga Satori Maiden.
 * Oriental Hermit Republic: A fleet continues to be prepared for exploring outside of the Oriental Hermit's Domain. The military is built up.
 * Praetorians: Offer the Xlax an alliance. We begin to expand our borders. Talking to the Humans reveals that although some humans are violent, the humans of this nation have not had as violent a path as most. We decide that soon we will contact them, and uplift them. We ask for the meeting that Centria proposed. We begin to saturate the Promethean Empire with shapeshifters. We manufacture around 2000 ships for the fleet. We begin to excavate a large Old Ones Facility.
 * Xlax D: accepts
 * Jaledom of the Universe:  When a memeber of the Army of the Universe dunkedly falls and lands in West Berlin people go mad over him. The Jaledom, a collection of subdivisions called Crapers, has one craper officaly decalre global neturallty. In our dry docks on Boringsauct the people get to boerd of not having to make ships so they make a ton. Denounces the Promethans and asks to ally with Preatorians. Boringsauct continues to grow into a Imperial captiol untill a new plan is made- use it for tuourism.
 * Praetorians: Accept


 * Germany: A new poltical party begins to rise, the Monachist Communists.


 * While this is possible, it would take a while to do so. Slow it down, we have plenty of time.


 * Promethean Empire: We decide to send more fleet to the Sol System to defeat the Praetorian forces there as the Fringe Worlds of the Praetorians are attacked. We also decide to begin a campaign of war against Centria to destroy their sigma fields. We attack the Praetorian base on Luna and we quickly capture it and begin using it as a staging area for operations across the Sol System. We begin building thousands of ships to prepare for a war against the galaxy and ask for an alliance with the Firstborn and Mech Network following a scout ship passing by their region of space.
 * Hell to the damn no. Too much too soon.
 * Aw What!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!??????? COME ON!!!!! I WANT TO BLOW SOEMTHING UP!!!!!!!
 * No. Too soon. Read the rules.
 * The Regenetech Empire decides to prevent the eruption of a full blown galactic war, especially one centered on an inhospitable region of the galaxy. Nonaffected Force users who can actively use their powers begin to have their DNA selectively breeded to produce a newer subspecies of universal Force users. These clones are raised quickly to create elite units that operate under normal Regens. Ten fleets (which is what, ten hundred thousand battleship and innumerable sentient organisms?) are deployed to wait within the the orbit of Sol but not within the view of Solofix (Earth), utilizing the sun to prevent detection by humans.
 * The US continues doing whatever it was doing OTL, but it becomes increasingly aware of strange things in the solar system. The military is put on high alert, and the government goes onto Defcon 2, while not telling the public of this.
 * Centria is shocked at the actions of the two warring sides and institutes Plan Beta. The 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 9th Sigmas are sent to Earth, in addition to 6 Base Fleets and 9 Assault Fleets. These immediately implement Search-and-Destroy Missions against the fleets of the Jaledom and the Promethans located between the orbits of Venus and Saturn. In retaliation for the attacks on Berlin, Toyo, Leningrad and LA, four prominent Promethan worlds are utterly destroyed via Sigma field.
