The human race is triumphant. After succesfuly developing space travel, they swarmed around the galaxy, colonising dozens of worlds. In doing so, they found numerous signs of alien civilisations: odd bits of technology, ruined desert cities of gold filagree and glowing blue light, abandoned scapyards... but no life. But soon enough, following the trail across the galaxy, they found them: the Enkari. Highly advanced lifeforms, they were all but extinct when the humans found them, claimed by a deadly disease. They bequeathed their knowledge to the humans, in the form of a datacrystal, hundreds of miles high. The humans brought the crystal to earth, where the scientists eagerly awaited a chance to experiment with the advanced technology. However, on the way to earth, a rogue military general, Amadeus Sungh, attacked the convoy with a small fleet, seizing the crystal. The rest of the humans counterattacked, and in the process, the vast crystal was lost, accidently blown apart by weapons fire. Only a few shards remained, and war broke out among the humans, fighting for the knowledge contained within...
Tuth Choss, Haron System
You wake up, and find yourself lying on a table. The room is dark, but you can make out banks of surgical equipment. You clutch your head, trying to remember something, anything before this room. Nothing, nothing apart from your name. You sit up, and climb off the bed. You hear a clanking noise, and stare in horror at your body. Half of it seems to have been encased in some sort of golden armor, with glowing blue cables snaking in and out of your skin. Twin golden gauntlets are affixed to your hands, and metallic armor covers your torso. Armor covers the lower half of your legs, and on your chest you see a green crystal affixed to the armor. Blue cables connect to this, and it glows eerily. Despite the armor, you can move freely. In fact, you feel light and flexible. Suddenly, the floor shakes and there is an enormous BOOM. You are knocked off your feet, but get back up again and rush to the door. It opens, and you stumble into a large hall, filled with people running away. You stare out of a window, and see tanks and soldiers charging towards the base...

They are correct. With a flicker of light, you Charge at them. One's head is already flying off by the time he aims his gun, but the other gets several shots off, the EM bullets imapacting into your chest and shoulder armor. But before long, he too lies dead upon the ground. You hear a rumbling, and see a tank approaching the outpost. What do you do?
You spin through the air and dispatch one of the soldiers. The other tow open up with their heavy Gauss rifles, bullets slamming into you. However, your speed and and strength are high enough to take them out. You step over the bodies.

You go down a corridor, which leads to a large chamber. Many engineers are piecing together heavy weapons and suits of powered armor. You spy a higher ranked scientist giving orders. He has a card key on a cord around his neck. It reads: "Shuttle Bay". What do you do?
You cloak yourself, and snatch the card key. The scientist looks down, finds that it's missing, and shouts panickedly. But by that time, you're already gone. You quietly walk up some stairs, and arrive at the command center doors. Guarding the way in are two battle cyborgs, three metres tall and armed with gigantic guns and steel claws. What do you do?
You cloak, and sneak over to the door. It's locked, but you prise it open with an energy blade. However, the droids see the door opening. "INVISIBLE ASSAILANT REGISTERED. SWITCHING TO HEAT VISION." You back away. "RESISTANCE IS FUTILE. SURRENDER OR BE DESTROYED."
You try and run through them, but one easily smashes you into a wall with a fist, then hurls you onto the ground. Gasping with the pain, you step up as the machines advance.
You blast the closest one with your EM rifle, the bullets slamming into it's fibre-optic skeleton, disabling it. Yo flip into the air, and hurl a grenade at the far cyborg. It explodes, tearing apart it's arm and torso. You easily disable it with your energy blade, and walk into the busy Command Center. Many army officers and high ranking scientists cluster around large holographic screens. Do you:
A) Listen in on their conversation B) Throw a grenade in their midst C) Cloak, and attack them with your energy blades D) Try and hack into computer terminal while cloaked?
