Terran Colonial Forces

The year 2940 in Sol years

Sector: Sirius

Three years ago, the 301st TCEagles Commander, crashbx, formed a temporary alliance with another Squadron, the 317th Scythers, to fight pirates and common enemies in the Sirius sector. After destroying one of the organized criminal networks in the Omicron Gamma system, the two squadrons decided to re-unite the old Western Alliance. The WA fought the Coalition in the solar war long ago, but once the fighting stopped the WA disbanded, with most members relocating to Sirius to preserve their way of life. Now reunited and stronger than before, the Western Alliance was reorganized and renamed as the Terran Colonial Forces, due to the fact that its membership and influence encompassed an equal number of Terran and Colonial worlds. Not long after the reorganization, 2 more squadrons were added to TCForces; these are known as the 313th DragonClaw and 45th Werebears.

Recently, they intercepted a distress signal from their distant home in the Solar system; the home they thought destroyed. The decision was made to launch their jump capable carriers and return to the Sol system. Their mission: to investigate the source and reason for this distress signal. What they will find nobody knows, but the distorted distress signal mentioned the unification of humanity under the UEE banner and an alien threat…the Vanduul.

Estimated time of travel to the Sol system is from 1 – 2 years, even with the improved jump-drive capabilities. In the meantime Terran Colonial forces will gather their ranks and prepare for the upcoming threat.
