Maschinen Krieger Mothership Hack Introduction

   Introduction

    Maschinen Krieger is a Japanese model kit series originally created by Kow Yokoyama. There is a story attached to the models but what has been translated into English is rather generic which can be read here. This is a rewrite of the story into a more cohesive and interesting setting to be used. 

Opening

    2352, The Human Sphere still recovering from an interstellar WWIV has broken down into 2 main factions the United Federated States and Strahl Democratic Republic. Tensions still remain high with proxy wars, border conflicts and insurgencies throughout human space. The megacorps see opportunities for greater power, influence and profits in the current state of the Human Sphere. 


The Human Sphere

    Encompassing a 20 light year sphere with Earth in the center. The Strahl Democratic Republic (SDR) and the United Federated States (UFS) vie for total control, along side these 2 main superpowers are megacorps trying to make even bigger profits and independent polities trying to break free from their respective central governments. The independent polities are funded at times by the 2 great powers leading to proxy war situations.

Sol System
    
    The Sol system is divided roughly in half by the SDR and UFS. On Earth the UFS is composed of the Western Bloc nations while SDR is made of the Eastern Bloc nations. Luna is split in half, while Mars, Mercury and Venus are SDR controlled. In contrast Jupiter, Saturn and Neptune are UFS controlled. Uranus is jointly controlled as a treaty measure following the end of WWIV. The Oort cloud and asteroid belt are jointly controlled as well. 
    
    Numerous orbital habitats and colonies dot the system. The majority of people do prefer to live on planetary bodies though when possible.
