[i]An early concept of a lunar train[/i]
[b]Who you are?[/b]
Once a respected member of the Engineering Council dispatched by Moon Shell, your mission seemed straightforward: supervise the implementation of an advanced mining system on the unforgiving lunar surface. However, the stark simplicity of this task crumbled beneath the weight of an unforeseen catastrophe.
A colossal solar storm, an act of celestial wrath, descended upon Earth with merciless fury, obliterating all electronics in its voracious path. As chaos reigned, the blinding rage of the Sun's scorching rays engulfed the Moon's main communication relay, leaving it a smoldering ruin in the unyielding light.
Now, you find yourself stranded and isolated, a solitary figure in the desolation of a lunar wasteland consumed by the relentless glare of the Sun. The once-promising outpost is now a graveyard of shattered dreams, everything within the Sun's reach reduced to ash in mere moments.
In this twisted reality, light is not a source of hope but a harbinger of destruction. Embrace the shadows, for they are your only refuge in this relentless battle for survival amidst the suffocating darkness of the lunar expanse.

[b]Dark Moon timeline[/b]
- 2032 - Global powers, including US, China, Russia and EU engage in the [b]Global Trade War[/b] in order to gain control over Earth’s strategic resources.
- 2034 - Climate crisis, mass migration and starvation in South America results in the formation of a superstate USAN (Union of South American Nations) composed of most of the countries on the continent.
- 2035 - Economic warfare fueled the innovation in the resource mining sector, and due to that massive states gained additional independence from global trade chains.
- 2038 - African Union collapses due to conflicts of the Nile Delta and its dams. Arabian League supports Egypt, exacerbating the geopolitical differences on the continent.
- 2045 - The unprecedented economic recession and climate change force civilization states to stop the [b]Global Trade War[/b] and partially restore the global trade chains. However, the major players are on their way to secure their own resource independence from the global market.
- 2046 - The beginning of the [b]Resource Wars[/b]. This is a series of proxy conflicts between the major players trying to secure the resources in the weaker and divided parts of the Earth. The players for each region are: Middle East: European Federation, Russia, and the USA Oceania: CANZUK, China, India, and the USA Africa: CANZUK, European Federation, China Central America: The USA and USAN
- 2055 - Due to the severe depletion of resource deposits in the Earth's crust, the Civilization States begin their efforts in space. First lunar mining operations of a large scale are initialized. However, due to the lack of space law, slowly smaller conflicts between the Civilization States are on the horizon.
- 2066 - The Moon Shell company is founded together with the Moon Rush project, which is the first cooperative effort to lessen the chances of conflicts for space resources.
- 2072 - The outstanding success of the Moon Rush project and its [b]Moon Shell Corporation[/b] ends the [b]Resource Wars[/b].
- 2077 - Dark Moon Begins…
