Chapter One

On January 1, 89, 982, President Lucas Bradson who was two years into his third term as President of the Third Amderestan Republic sat in his office on the fifteenth floor of the executive building to read over stacks of datapads from the Parisian Region Amderestan Military Field Command Headqaurters. These reports detailed the aftermath of the two year uprising by Parisia Liberation Army forces.

Since a large number of cities on planets throughout the Parisia Region were devastated by the intense urban combat between Amderestan Military Infantry Assault Groups and PLA Forces, relief agencies began the task of providing hundreds of millions with shelter, food and water.

"Mr. President." President Lucas Bradson's Chief of Staff said in his Amderestan Accent through the office's intercom unit. "There seems a be a situation along the AAR border."

"What kind of situation?" President Bradson responded as he meet his Chief of Staff outside his office and the two of proceeded towards a conference room. They entered the conference room which showed a three-demensional holographic map of the Swearian Region divided in half between the Amderestan Army Republic which retained control of the north and 3rd Amderestan Republic which controlled the south.

"Well, sir." Amderestan Military Chief of Staff Chairman Commander Lonisian commented. "Swearia Region Amderestan Military Field Command Headqaurters has been sending reports detailing an increase of cross-border attacks by Amderestan Army Republic Military Combat Assault Fleets during the past month."

Amderestan Spacefleet Corps Chief of Staff Commander Crentuin who was seated five seats to the left of Commander Lonisian also had his concerns. President Bradson took a seat next to Defense Minister Tellson, a thirty-five year old Taronian man who had been appointed to replace his predecessor in 89,980.

The obvious question for the 3rd Amderestan Republic was how to deal with the attacks launched by Amderestan Army Republic Military Combat Assault Fleets. Prime Minister John Talias who was leader of the Amderestan Democrats had nearly won a majority in the recently held Senate Election and formed a coalition with the Amderestan Democrats.

In the Senate Building's legislature Chamber which covered a ten block area of Crescent City, the 836 million Senators who repesented the thirty-six region districts and 800 million states in under 3rd Amderestan Republic control were sworn into office.

Over at Amderestan Spacefleet Corps Academy, Cadet Jack Forrester who was now in his third year of training to become a pilot in the Amderestan Spacefleet Corps sat in a common room with Cadet Jack Vellans and Cadet Laura Widan to watch ARNN's coverage of the Swearing in ceremony for the current Amderestan Senate.

"So, Vellans think we'll see some action." Cadet Jack Forrester commented to his friend Cadet Jack Vellans who connected his datapad to the Amderestan Data and Information Service and brought up the ARNN site.

"You really think the Amderestan Army Republic is going to just rip up the peace treaty they signed after twenty-five years from now." Cadet Jack Vellans responded. "They are in no shape to do anything besides launching a few ISBMs into Third Republic space or attacking vessels on the border."

Jack Forrester, Jack Vellans and Laura Widan who were currently twenty years of age grew up on Taronia. Jack Vellans father, Michael Vellans had served three terms as President of the 3rd Amderestan Republic. While Jack Forrester's father Colonel Timothy Forrester who had spent the Second AAR-Third Republic War conducted hit and run tactics against the Amderestan Army Republic Military forces in the Taronia Region. Laura Widan's father Colonel Tom Widan was also an Amderestan Spacefleet Corps Intelligence officer.

Over the next thirty days, the 120 vessels in the 5th Amderestan Spacefleet Corps Combat Assault Fleet now under the command of Commander William Rochester had conducted a series of combat exercises against a number of simulated Amderestan Army Military Alpha-class starships, crusiers, destroyers and super destroyers.
