Earth is unified and mars is a thriving terraformed world, most of the solar system has been colonized and several probes sent to the nearby systems. Aliens visited a couple times, but we managed to send a strong message that we are full and don't want them here.
On their visits, they accidentaly taught us faster than light travel after we examined the wrecks of their probes.
We built a spaceshipyard on earth and another on mars and have been buildings and improving upon the design of faster than light ships for a few decades.
The united nations decided to restart the calendar on the year the FTL drive was discovered.
The year is 37 of the Superluminal Era.
You come from a long line of fighter pilots, and you've been granted the honor to pilot a FTL ship.
Your mission is to escort a civilian Colony Ship to a habitable world. There might be pirates, mars saboteurs or even aliens along the way.
You are given the choice between three ships:
> EFS Tempest (Short-Range Interceptor) A compact, agile ship designed for close-quarters engagements. It’s outfitted with cutting-edge antimatter cannons, capable of obliterating enemy ships in moments, but with limited ammunition due to the volatile nature of antimatter.
> EFS Lancebreaker (Long-Range Destroyer) A sturdy, heavily-armed ship equipped with nuclear missile silos capable of delivering devastating payloads from extreme distances. It’s designed to hold its ground and deliver decisive strikes before enemies can approach.
> EFS Aegis (Mid-Range Drone Carrier) A balanced ship equipped with autonomous combat drones and medium-caliber railguns. The drones can handle both offensive and defensive operations, making the Aegis versatile in a variety of combat scenarios.
