Phantom Galaxies

Handlung

Over fifty years have passed since the last great war between the Union and the Commonwealth of Neoterra, and today the two factions co-exist in an uneasy alliance against lawless pirate guilds and a dangerous new foe: the Sha’Kari. The Sha’Kari Zealots are the priest caste of the Sha’Har race, and they intend to exact revenge upon humankind for the desecration of the Sha’Har’s ancestral planets. They have a strong presence in the galaxy, inhabiting several star systems, and their incursion puts pressure on the Union and the Commonwealth’s uneasy alliance. The human alliance is fragile, but it must endure if it is to have the slightest chance of withstanding the assaults of the fanatical Sha’Kari, who consider humans to be usurpers and grave robbers. The Sha’Kari have the clear advantage in technology, being the original creators of the powered armors that inspired humans to build the highly successful Mechanised Starfighter series of vehicles. On the human side, Mechanised Starfighters are helmed by the very best pilots, and the Ranger Squad represents the best of the best - a highly regarded unit of Union and Commonwealth elite pilots known for their fearlessness and effectiveness in battle. You start the game as a Mechanised Starfighter pilot ensign who joins the ranks of the Ranger Squad of elite pilots.
