We
live in an age where technology is advancing so quickly, it's almost
impossible to keep up with the latest tech unless you have money to
burn, and even then, every few months you'll be discarding previous
devices. I'm sure you must feel it too—things seem to be advancing
faster than you remember in years past. A new computer falls behind
the curve in a year or two, and within five years, you'll almost need
to rebuild or replace the entire thing if you want to upgrade to
current technology. I used to custom design my computers, but it
quickly reached the point that I often had to switch out to a new
motherboard because newer components simply wouldn't interface
anymore. Gaming consoles (Sony's Playstations and Microsoft's Xboxes)
have a predicted life of 6 to 8 years before a new version is
released –this is a rather long lifespan when considering that
within a year, newer and more advanced models of smartphones and
computers are on the market. But is technology really advancing at an
exponential rate?
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.
