[edit] Story
In the year 2077, the regional nation state on Earth were on the verge of collapse, until a planetary government known as WSSS (World Silent Security Service) came in and devised a way to resolve the many worldwide disputes that spread across the globe by designing a self-sufficient space-station mounted to an asteroid in Earth's orbit known as Deadalus.
Eight hundred years passed and Deadalus' employment of robotic peace-keepers had kept Earth from reaching any sort of conflict within that period of time. However, within that time, mankind had completely forgotten the true purpose of Deadalus and those who helped build and design Deadalus were long deceased. Some people had began to venerate Deadalus for keeping man safe from conflict while others despised it for supressing man from force with force. While Deadalus busily tried to keep these two groups from clashing on Earth, the latter party known as the Reformist Faction prepared a space transport armed with three pilots assigned to launch into Deadalus and destroy it.
