Star Wars: Armada

Star Wars: Armada is an open time period story group where the story is affected by the roleplayers' decisions.

Overview
Armada is broken up into Acts in which a story line is created, played out and completed. The Acts are further broken into Scenes, which make up the areas where the roleplaying is actually done. Upon the completetion of a scene, the roleplayers submit ideas that stemmed from the events that occurred. Those ideas are then gathered and voted upon by the group. The winning idea(s) are then used to continue the story and to create the intro for the next scene.

Story lines that take place in Armada are not subject to time periods within the Star Wars universe. Because of that, characters from different time periods can interact with one another, though only one roleplayer per character is permitted.

Preface
Prior to the beginning of Act I, the Galactic Empire and the Rebellion were at war. As the war dragged on, it appeared that the Rebellion would be the victor. As the war came to a close, a man known only as (The) Fallen appeared in the galaxy with an army equal in strength to the Empire and Rebellion. Due to strained resources and battles, both sides could not effectively combat him. It wasn't until the Empire and Rebellion finally joined sides that they were able to defeat Fallen. At the end of the war, which had come to be known as the Fallen War, Fallen disappeared.

With both the Empire and Rebellion gravely weakened, the galaxy separated into several factions in the years after the war ended. The Empire, too weak to hold onto a majority of its territories, restructed and formed into the Imperial Remnant. From the old Imperial territories, the Dominion Empire formed, led by Rie Basoar. The remaining territories went under neutral jurisdiction, coming under the control of the Inter-Galactic Banking Comitee and several Mandalorian sects. The Rebellion officially formed into the New Republic. As the old and new factions continued to recover and grow, a new planet was discovered within the New Republic. The planet's native species, the Ishtari, quickly expanded once discovered. Within months they expanded to several other planets, forming the Ishtari Empire. As tensions rose between the factions, Emperor Palpatine declared a truce meeting between them in order to discuss the galaxy's current state.
