The Story

In another place....

Interstellar travel has bee around for a long time.
Technology is such a part of life as to be completely invisible.
No one really notices it

A war rages accross the stars.

On one had there are the Sterateel. So alien as to be unknownable. So alien as for diplomacy to always fail. On the other hand are out heroes (no name here - I want the players to imagine them). The clash is the familiar (our heroes) and the alien.

No one knows why the war started or how it will end. It is played accross vast distances with each side taking almost random resources off each other.

This story is of the Frigate "Golden Chance" and her crew as she attempts to escort a convoy of supply ships to the constuction point of a Star Pool a place that draws in currents of chaotic fluttering wormholes that allow fast (if sometimes unpredictable)interstellar travel. Construction of the pool is important - it will allow development of what is an otherwise isolated system.

The Sterateel are just starting a campaing here and the job of getting accross the system is going to be a hard and tragic one

This is to be simple story. Told on a human level that alludes to huge goings on. An attempt to create the start of a huge space opera.
