The first incident that may occur is
something some of us may have already experienced—running out of
fuel. In the days before cell-phones I remember being a little
nervous the first time I traveled across a 2-hour expanse of desert
in the West Coast or more than an hour on the Jersey Turnpike on the
East Coast. Both roads were, for the most part, without exits, and if
I hadn't put enough fuel in my car, I would have had a very, very long
walk to find a gas station or help. Even if I could call from my
phone for help, I could be in for several hours of waiting. On the
West Coast, the heat of the desert was the danger, while on the East
Coast during winter, the frigid temperatures were a serious threat.
In space, without fuel to propel a starship to the next destination,
both the oxygen supply and the cold of space could become very
serious challenges. Food and water supply could also become crucial,
if players haven't stocked up enough to cover the extra days (or
weeks) they may have to wait for help to arrive.
As seven alien races struggle to co-exist in an uneasy alliance, the Inter-Stellar Union sends Union Guard agents on missions to preserve the crucial balance. These specialized operatives must do what regional security cannot, dealing with smugglers, pirates, terrorists, and even greater challenges in order to bring stability to a universe that needs it desperately. Without the Union Guard, the races will not be prepared to face a looming alien threat they can only hope to defeat together.
