the entire coalition and earth got blown up right after the 5 sleeper ships left

its in some early released intro somewhere on this site not sure where....

"If im phased and can walk through stuff, then why am I not falling through the floor?"

That was the OLD intro...it is not the official story anymore, just a curiosity to look at which shows the different phases the game went though before release.

The current official story makes no mention of what happened to the Coalition or Sol; for all we know they're still there.

but why did they the alliance and coalision fight? i mean what for?

Watch the intro
Rough qoute "The war had been going on for so long we had frogotten what we were fighting for"

Also if you play starlancer it may shed some light on the A vs C war

Ive got Starlancer Here in the box ready to load on... Guess Im playing them in reverse order...

Not to give you any spoilers about that, but you never find out why the whole war started. The Alliance and Coalition have apparently been going at it for quite some time in various places around the Sol system, with the war that begins in SL being only the latest scuffle. It would have been interesting to find out who started it all, but it does add a little to the story having never found that out...

Going back to SQ40's openning suggestion, though it's rediculous, I'd like to point out that Confederate naval emblems often include red stars (especially in WC3). This is besides the point, though, and this thread is long dead. Hehehe.

Yes, this thread is long dead - you are spamming to increase your rank, something that is heavily frowned upon.

That is not tolerated.

Integrate and contribute constructively to the community, your rank will grow with time (it doesn't mean you get respect at all, it means nothing other than how many posts you make), but do not ever start bumping and making random posts (even if you are attempting to make them have "content"

if u downloaded the trial version u will see how the war started.

The alliance and coalition were going to sign a treaty called the 'Balma Treaty'.
This would bring peace over the two factions ever growing intentions.

Story:
The alliance has been under attack for several weeks by pirates. The capitol ship ANS Yamato launches a fighter wing called the Ronin to finnish patrolling the to make sure that there are no pirates following them.

The wing finds a derelict convoy that has been destroyed pirates. With the pirates still in the area, Ronin wing engages and destroys all of the pirates, ecxept for one that manages to jump out.

Ronin follows pirate and encouters 3 coalition cruisers. They now know that the coalition is attacking the alliance with pirate ships to disguise themselves and that the Treaty is a setup. Ronin wing quickly leaves the area to an early warning station, in order to warn the Yamato and alliance fleet.

When they arrive at the early warning station, it is already under attack by "pirate" forces. Two coalition torpedo bombers jump in and fire a large salvo of torpedos at the early warning station. Ronin manages to destroy the torpedos right before they hit the station. Then they destroy the remaining coalition forces and return to the Yamato.

When they get back to the Yamato, it is already under attack. They move to destroy coalition fighters. Next another wing of alliance fighters jump in and help Ronin destroy the coalition fighters. After that, the 3 coalition cruisers from before jump in and start firing at the Yamato. The Yamato fires it's own torpedos back at one of the cruisers. Ronin manages to destroy the torpedos, while one of the cruisers gets hit and blows up. Again the Yamato fires a second salvo of torpedoes and kills another cruiser. Finnaly the Yamato fires its last salvo and destroys the last cruiser.

Then as if the battle seems over, a deadly class1 coalition carrier jumps in a fires more torpedoes at the Yamato. Once again the Ronin wing destroys the torpedos before they can hit the Yamato. With the Yamato out of torpedoes and the carrier about to launch more tordpedos; a new capitol ship allined with the alliance jumps in and fires torpedos at it. The carrier explodes in a huge explosion.

The new ship reports that the bulk of the alliance front line ships have been destroyed.

The alliance fighters land on the Yamato and the battle is over... for now.
