The New Earth Short-Terminator Series Congratulations to the winner - Serreski Details: After the discovery of an earth-like planet, Kepler, the various Galactic Powers are vying to colonise the planet with its' rich resources around the polar regions.
At the same time, beneath the densely-clouded atmosphere, indigenous inhabitants of the fertile polar regions (Astrum and Vertex) have amassed their (slightly primitive) military capabilities to resist invasion by the colonisers.
Your task, as leader of the Earth Alliance Colonisation Force is to defeat rival colonising forces and the local resistance in order to secure the planet.
This tournament is another in a series of Short Terminator tournaments.
It is open to all players with a decent attendance record (see below). Freemiums welcome (two-games-at-a-time).
