Speed of Light is set in the Year 2847 in the Solar System.

Humanity has left Earth and now 4 Empires have taken control of the solar System.

 

The Europa Empire has control over the metal and mineral rich planets Mercury & Venus.

The Alliance reigns over the Earth and what remains of the now broken Mars, they benefit from an almost inexhaustible supply of water and ore.

The two Gas giants are slave to The Imperiya, heavy mined for their gasses and exotic particles.

And the Mysterious Hoshiko Empire control the 2 outer Ice Giants with.

 

The 4 Empires are all a a relative peace after the age of enlightenment of the mid-21st century. They simply use Mercs to wage their wars are create profitable trade lanes.

Rouge Factions of pirates strive to destroy and horde all equipment and raw materials for their own twisted means.

 

Become a Merc for the Empire of choice or take the role of a ruthless pirate. Create huge fleets of warships, trading vessels or mining barges.

War is not only won through the barrel of a gun, but also through a fist full of cash or a cargo hold of ore.

 

See you out there.
