Story

The Terrans and the Vasudans are in the middle of a high pitched, 14 year, intergalactic war. With the front nearly at a standstill and the casualties ranging in the billions, things look bleak. Then, during the middle of the fighting, a new foe arrives, named the Shivans by Terran Command. The Shivans systematically wipe out Terran and Vasudan outposts alike. With both Terran and Vasudans on the run, they must work together against their common enemy if they are to save their people, civilization, and homeworlds.
