A ‘cultured''' way to fight a war.

In the Ganymede Cluster, they don’t do things like us. They live for the spectacle.

Wars are fought on out-of-the-way planets where the cultured citizens don’t have to watch it or see the horrors of it. At least that’s how humanity had treated war to avoid the destruction of the human civilization.

The Human Force for Peace was sent into the galaxy as a buffer to make sure alien invaders never reached Earth.

The Ganymede Cluster – where war is mainstream entertainment, gladiatorial in its presentation. The Collective has determined that Humanity is a contestant and that disputed territory will be settled according to their rules.

In the Arena. One champion with a supporting team against the disputant’s champion and team over the course of seven grueling days. War at its finest as entertainment and conflict resolution. The winner is awarded control of the disputed planet.

The losers are dead along with their claim.

Fight for humanity. Fight to save the lives of your fellow soldiers.

By order of Janus Seven, Leader of Humanity

For fans of Starship Troopers, Halo, Battleship Leviathan, and other military science fiction.
