Space Rangers

Our hero comes into existence just at this moment. He or she is one of the dozens and hundreds of volunteers, which are attempting to save the galaxy from slavery. The ranger gets a small spaceship and the freedom to act as he pleases. From now on everything depends on his choice. There are no certain ways to win the game, each of the rangers decides on his own, what to do to stop Klissans' invasion and to prove that it is him who is the Hero whose destiny is to save the world from the Dark.

In the beginning, the small spaceship of the player is too weak to deal with the warships of Klissans, so the first task is to get all the necessary equipment. The player has plenty of opportunities to accomplish this, by way of trade and completing quests. That is, the player buys and sells cargo and takes missions from planetary governments. But he should not forget that there are many rangers in the galaxy, and each of them is dreaming to become the fabulous hero. Thus, the rangers would all try completing missions of different governments (which often contradict each other) and get the most profitable deals. Cut-throat competition - this is the essence of the initial stage of the game.

All this time the player should watch how Klissans are doing. He does not know the actual size of their armies, but it is possible to judge their strength by the number of systems captured, which is shown on the galactic map. The player also has information on the other rangers. On any planet he can get the list of the active rangers, in which he can see their achievements.

Gradually, two things happen: 1) Rangers become stronger; 2) Klissans capture more planets and start approaching the center of the galaxy. The interests of the sides start intersecting. Rangers have to take military action against Klissans and try to defend the planets attacked and liberate the ones already conquered. The successful rangers start getting money from the governments of the planets which have been helped, and this allows them to press harder on Klissans. The latter, in their turn, start making more powerful fleets and trying to capture the most developed planets. The opposition nears its culmination.

It is difficult to predict the exact outcome of this course of events. However, it is clear that if rangers are passive and are unable to counteract the nasty guys, the story is going to have a bad end, both for them and for the galaxy. If another ranger manages to destroy Klissans, it also means that the player has in fact lost. Thus, there is only one way to the victory: the player must find the secret base of Klissans and destroy it.
