Story:
To: Imperial High Command.
From: Imperial Recon Fleet 0-9-D-4.
Subject: Sanctonium Report #1.
Date: 15/01/02.
Body:
The people of Sanctonium have lived in peace for over a thousand years, with no need for weaponry their military capabilities are little to none, we have studied these peoples and conclude they're in an era we know as 'The Napoleonic' era, their equipment is of little threat, and their society is led in a very democratic manor, I believe our forces will be capable of taking this planet in a matter of days, given that our request to initiate the Fussion is accepted. However, if we are to invade, I recommend the immediate initiation of code: Sierra-91D-29C-29C. As I do believe that the immediate re-distribution of the populace is vital for maintaining our grip on the sector, as they have a habbit of forming a tightly wownd community over a long period of time, so if we keep the communities together, they may act irrationally if one of their loved ones are 'punished.'

For the Empire Brothers.
On February 4th, 901 AD, A vortex opened above the Sanctonion Capitol city of Versonix, the people begin to panic.
On February 5th, 901 AD, The first of the Overlords began to emerge, raising the city of Versonix to the ground, the invasion has began.
February 7th, 901 AD, The government of Sanctonium has collapsed, and our military is little more than a band of soldiers held up in the mountains.
February 19th, 901 AD, The Overlords are victorious, and they have began re-distributing the population, taking all the Children to a structure they call 'The Nexus', a large silver tower built where the Grand Palace in Versonix once stood.
February 21st, 901 AD, The Overlords have estabilished a Sanctonion police force, consisting of volunteers from the civilian populace who wish to up their standards of living, and gain more respect within the community.
June 3rd, 901 AD, Civil un-rest spreads like wild fire through Sector 9D, causing Martial Law to be put in effect across Sanctonium.
June 9th, 901 AD, Sector 9E, 9D, 9C, 9B & 9A have organised an Uprising, and the Overlords have been temporarily driven from the sector, due to being completely taken off guard.
June 15th, 901 AD, After several failed attempts to re-take Sector 9, the Overlords have released a Neuro Toxin across the Island, this is rumoured to kill everyone in Sector 9. The overlords leave the island abandoned to send a message to the rest of the population, pretty much saying 'This is what you get, if you dare oppose us.'
On September 4th, 905 AD, A broadcast was put out across the nation using the Overlord's public communication network, saying that the people of Sector 9 live on, and that they have been gathering their strength to fight back against the Overlords, due to this broadcast Civil Un-rest spreads across the ENTIRE nation, people from Sectors - 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 11, 13 all taking to the streets and protesting, while Sectors - 4, 5 & 12 take up arms and riot, causing huge amounts of damage.

Subject: Requesting Reinforcements.
Date: 15/09/05
Body:
It is with great shame that I must request immediate reinforcements, the people have began rioting in the streets and an armed uprising has emerged from Sector-9, a sector of which was long though to have been terminated from the population centre list. However, it appears a large group of civilians have survived, stealing armaments from the fallen Civil-Defence units.
We hope to get a reply A-S-A-P.
I'm sorry Brothers, I have failed you.
To: Sanctonion Colonial Governor.
From: Imperial High Command.
Subject: Apologies, brother.
Subject: Request Denied.
Date: 19/09/05.
Body:
I'm sorry to inform you, but we cannot spare any units at this time, as the Tonio and Xeno have launched a new offensive in the Quadro System and in Mining System 4-B. We will send aid as soon as possible, but we must ask you to maintain a hold on your sector, if the Tonio and Xeno catch wind of this uprising, they may send help, which is why you must speak to no-one from Imperial Command, and you must send your reports to High Command, as we do not want a leak from somewhere in the lower echelons of command.
I'm sorry Comrade, we wish you luck.
This where your story begins, what path will you take?
Will you:
Join the Rebellion, and fight for your freedom?
Become a loyalist, and help your Overlords in their war against the traitors?
Remain Neutral, and watch as the war un-folds, taking with it many who wished for no part in the bloodshed?
It's up to you how you play, the map will show you first hand what your choices have on the world, for anything you do could cause the balance of power to change.
This is your time.
Make it last.
Please, please, please, if you have any questions, do not hesitate to send me a telegram or post under this topic, and thank you for showing an interest.
(Map will be placed below, when it's completed.)
If there's any confusion regarding technology, I'd just like to make it clear that the Overlords are in fact FT, whilst the Sanctonions are only in the Napoleonic era. So the technology difference is the reason behind the Sanctonion's quick defeat.
