An infamous time in the history of our world. A rogue organization calling themselves Caeli Ignus Animositas attacked with a fleet of advanced warships, the Earth itself and those that inhabited it with the largest ballistic weapons ever created by man, Space Colonies. Taking advantage of the conflicts between the three major factions at play on Earth, the rogue fleet was able to seize a large number of colonies without interference other than the rather limited colony defense forces, which stood little chance against the fleet. It wasn’t long however before the rogues turned their attention onto the Earth, bringing several colonies into dropping positions and attempting drops. Due to the extremely slow response time of the Earth, several colonies made their way downwards from orbit before the fight of the millennium broke out in the heavens. Angels and Demons clashed in the sky in a battle to determine the fate of the world. Heavy damage was sustained to some colonies, while others were destroyed entirely. Immense devastation was wrought across the land as colonies crashed into the earth, and others broke up during the fall, scattering destruction across the world. Civilization was shattered as what survivors there were scattered for shelter and fought over food as a nuclear winter effect settled in over the land from the drops. Billions died, centuries of knowledge lost from mankind as so much was buried under rubble, dust, and the blood of the innocent. The battle in space soon ended, all sides having taken devastating damage, their forces almost entirely obliterated. What survivors remained on the Earth had naught to look forward to but the blood and sweat of rebuilding civilization from the rubble up.
