In terms of storyline, I’m immediately reminded of Mechwarrior II: Mercenaries. Working as a mercenary means not particularly caring about who wants to control what – you’re here to make money. The Pilot’s License we picked up gave us our “in” for exploiting all of these mega-corps, resistance groups, and various factions operating in the region of their cold hard COAM. Much of that will come from Walter, albeit with the help of a few friends along the way.

That is, until the Fires of Ibis – a cataclysmic event that engulfed an entire star system in righteous fire and death. Scarcity has always been a source of conflict, and Coral could have been the spark that humanity needs to put it on a path towards unlimited energy. Countless wars have blighted the history of humanity.
