This war might be anywhere, in any age. The complexity of weapons, the ideals, the settings are all meaningless. Today like the day before you have seen friends slaughtered, their blood running with the blood of the enemy. You have heard men weeping themselves to sleep in their bedrolls, weary and sick of the work of killing.
Tomorrow the blood could be yours, or theirs. These thoughts like a trillion prayers are repeated across an ocean of worlds, many cut short, none answered.
Welcome to a universe at war with itself, where the feuds of nations consume the lives of men as they have done since the dawn of time.
Welcome to the Angels Fall First Universe.
Angels Fall First: Planetstorm is a team-based planetary assault game fought both in space and on the ground. Maps are linked in pairs to enable you to continue the fight all the way from jumping in your task force through to personally executing the enemy commander in his bunker.
The two superpowers grappling with each other are the newly reformed Antarean Empire, an expansionist power still smarting from a humiliating defeat of a millennium ago. led by the young emperor Maruis Lucan Andromedeus XIV they are determined to resist the unification led by the ULP and to reclaim lost territories. The Antareans are the oldest and proudest colony of man, and also the largest single political entity in the galaxy. The United League of Planets, consisting of 5 founding nations and assorted fringe protectorates. The ULP was founded by legendary Taurean diplomat Yvette Edrasil after the war against the old Antarean Empire shredded the former core states' political relations.
Their goal is a unified galaxy but like any vast bureaucracy they are seen as somewhat faceless and cold by many of the wayward nations they would adopt. Sensing this tension, the Antarean empire led the call to arms against the ULP, and the galaxy has not seen the end of hostilities since.
Three map-pairs are initially planned with more to follow testing.

And i must ask about this rather controversial topic! What are your plans for MECHS!
LOL. It's controversial because we already have fiction background AND concepts for them and wouldn't want to change our IP. We don't want to be another Gundam or another Mechwarrior honestly. :P There is already one mech slated for inclusion. A 'transformer' for lack of a better word as well as plans for more IF that one goes in without trouble. It's mostly a problem with animating them ingame. So anyway, keep your fingers crossed. :)
Transformer? Which one is it?
Will you guys be including all your concept art as a bonus to this Mod because its all amazing! and by any chance are you guys contemplating a third faction?
yeah baby - loading screens :)
In the final release, if we have spare megabytes maybe. :)
As for a third faction, probably not for the MSUC Planetstorm, though there are plenty of possibilities for the future. The Solesian Hegemony for example, the Solarian League, the Tar Shenna Librarians, Pirates, the Foyeri Union, the terroristic Crusaders of Ios etc. :P All of those are mostly independent from both the ULP and the Antarean Star Empire. Then there are the various special forces of the individual nations under those two superpowers, etc hehe.
The crusaders of Ios.... yeah right... they're no army... they're an armed bible discussion group!
what is the shortcut for planetstorm normal on 64 bit?
It should be the same assuming a default install on the c:/ drive. If it isn't working for you, check you've placed AFFGame folder as per the readme, then go and try our mod launcher app: Affuniverse.com
lol its taken us a year, and we only did things so fast cos we had a previous 4 years of building models for it :P
