It has now been over a year since the once powerful Confederation government made its last stand. The Rebels, though they appeared to be a small, unimportant menace at the start, finally prevailed. After decades of fighting, the Rebellion had captured nearly all of the core worlds, until all that was left was Sol itself. It was outside of the Confederation capital that the Rebels made their biggest and most successful offensive: to finish the Confederation. The warfleets assembled by the Confederation at Sol were massive, yet the Rebellion had overtaken their foe not only in military terms, but economically. The Confederation fought to the last, and their hopes died with them.
Now, one year later, the galaxy now faces an even greater danger. During the Great War, the mighty Confederation Navy had fought the great alien warships that nearly conquered the human race. Those aliens, outnumbered as they were, contained the most advanced technology ever discovered by the humans. The alien weapons and warships could destroy human warfleets five times their size within a few terrifying minutes. But the Confederation destroyed the alien warships and their escorts by trapping them one by one, until all known sixteen cruisers were written in the history books. Following the Great War, the Confederation and the Rebellion fought the war that lasted decades. Now, both those wars are over.
But the galaxy had other plans...Months proceeding the final battle at Sol, a single Manta recon fighter made one of the most fearsome discoveries while on patrol in the Serpens Nubula. The aliens were not extinct. An alien battlecruiser never seen before was lurking in the thick pink clouds, but it never struck. The Rebels knew, however, that their time was limited. The aliens wouldn't be in hiding forever.
Proceeding the discovery of the battlecruiser, a new class of alien fighters were discovered on the outskirts of Serpens. The Rebellion now realized that these aliens had never emerged from the Milky Way itself, but somewhere far, far away. There, behind the Serpens Nebula, lies a doorway to another galaxy...another universe that has yet to be discovered. So advanced are the aliens in terms of technology that they have the power to contruct massive jump gates.
But where the aliens have come from is still a mystery. Nobody will ever know for sure until the war is complete, which could easilly be in favor of the alien empire. For now, the Human Confederation Alliance, commanded by President Skyblade and his vice president Jonathan Navarone, face survival itself. The worlds of the Milky Way have united to fight the dreaded aliens that have again come...and it large numbers. Welcome to the war that was never completed, the engagement between alien and mankind that many now call "The Unfinished War."

Alright you guys, you all know the rules from the registration topic, but keep in mind that what was said about discovering another universe will not be covered in epside II. You'll have to wait for the threesequel, "The Worlds Beyond the Milky Way," before you find out anything about another galaxy.

Fleet Commanders of all governments- Make sure you keep up with your fleet numbers constantly. Add ships to your numbers when you are given reinforcements, and take away ships from your numbers after a battle. This is extremely important. As a matter of fact, it would be a good idea to post your fleet numbers within every post you make. Also, remember the fuel restrictions of your ships. If you're in doubt of ship capabilities, visit the shipyards. If you have any questions, please ask them on the original "players needed" topic.
To get started, visit the "players needed" topic and make sure you copy and past your fleet numbers and classes within your posts here. Sound alright? Great...
