The time of the Fading Suns is upon us…
The only awareness of the transition Leopold had was the sudden shift of stars on the view screen before him. That shift, however, was exactly what he sought. No one from the Known Worlds had seen that star field in centuries, ever since this jump route closed off at the end of the Second Republic. This, the thrill of discovery, mattered far more to him than did any thoughts of wealth. This was what all his efforts had been leading toward. He relished the chance to go where no one had gone for hundreds of years.
Suddenly his view screen lit up with a fiery display. “Blasters,” yelled Atila, his weapons master. She pressed a series of buttons. “Our aft shields are almost gone!”
“Accelerate and turn to starboard,” Leopold yelled back. “Who is hitting us?” His fingers flew over his console. He cursed to see that the jumpgate had yet to reset. Escape was closed to him.”
“Explorer behind us,” said Atila calmly. Her tone changed to one of surprise as she scanned the enemy. “Decados!”
Welcome to the Noble Armada, where just as Lepold you will have to manage your way through the dangers of the Known Worlds in strategic real time fleet to fleet combat…
