Historical Background
After a few weeks, the carrier unit has proven itself very worthy in battle. High Command is requesting additional carrier units and the Othorians, it would seem, are willing to oblige. We in the ranks are starting to wonder what really is their motive. It seems that for every carrier unit we field, the enemy is doing the same. It is an arms race, but neither faction is gaining any ground.
The battle lines are drawn and you are in command. The rest is history?
