Design for a Real Time Strategy Game
Based in Space
Dark Moon Entertainment

Five "races" are future manifestations of current earth tribes
split by a sort of 2nd tower of babel:

After the y2k madness,
the United Nations, Microsoft,
Nato, the Vatican and China
agree on a software standard
for language and programming
communication - "communitas"
in the interests of
progress and eco-stability
and enabling long distance space travel

those folks united into "unitas" (the human race)

because they opposed the union,
extreme factions of each group
take off into space
with a copy of the program
coded in their own language

eventually unitas takes over earth
and our galaxy
while the other races colonized elsewhere

in the center of those five galaxies is a battle galaxy
where the tribes duke it out for control of trade and communications
