INTRODUCTION
Welcome aboard.
Star Control II
will take you on a far journey, a space
odyssey encompassing the realms of science-fiction and role-playing. This
epic adventure spans hundreds of light years, and evokes a history reaching
back over 250,000 years. As you travel out among the stars, your decisions
and actions will directly affect the destiny of 18 intelligent, star-faring species,
including the inhabitants of Earth.
Star Control II
is only in part a sequel to
Star Control, which focused exclusively on the strategy and tactics of the bitter
Ur-Quan Slave War (known by the philosophical as the Great Crucible of
Sentience). You need not have played the first game to enjoy this one.
However, if you have never fought a Star Control space-battle, you may wish to
practice with the SuperMelee game before facing enemy forces. The evil aliens
you will encounter are adept at the art of war, and unforgiving of weakness.
The history that follows details the critical involvement of Earth in the conflict
between the Alliance of Free Stars and the villainous Ur-Quan Hierarchy.
Study what happened, learn from the mistakes of those that went before.
Only in this way will you be prepared for the mystery, the intrigue and the
blazing action of
Star Control II.
