Description:

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far across The Pond, a overly zealous Jermian Space Scout named 8-Off took control of his Scout troop, the Knotsies. Under his rule, the Jermian Knotsies began to oppress and invade neighboring Franzosis. They maintained control of the Franzosian citizens through military occupation. Cities were fenced off and troops stationed throughout. The Knotsies even imprisoned civilians, just because 8-Off was a whiny brat.

Meantime, the rest of the quadrant were trying to decide how best to liberate poor Franzosis, and improve their own economies. The Rustians decided that they, not the Knotsies should rule both Franzosis and Jermia. They threw together a large invading army. The United Spacemen of A-Mark-A, having a serious social hero complex, hired a bunch of trained soldiers to rescue the prisoners of war, return them to the USA’s home system, and put them to work. The galaxy’s multi-system peace organization, The Unified Milky-way was determined to wage peace on this conflict. They too prepared a force, this one powerful yet non-lethal. So on a dreary, cloudsome day on Franzosis, four militant groups clashed: The Knotsies, the Rustians, the A-Mark-Ans, and the UM Peacekeepers.
