Pandora First Contact Key

In the future, factions have risen from opportunities and ideologies independent of governments.
Private corporations and religious movements have started wars because of greed, ideology and power. Many have died and many lands are in ruins. Planet Earth has been depleted, and attempts to colonize other planetary bodies have been in vain.

Finally, after decades of exploration, an interstellar probe brought the promise of a new world many light-years away.
The strongest factions gathered their best men and women to send them on a long journey to Pandora.

Far from being deserted, the Earth-like planet has been shown to host a multitude of indigenous life forms, while the gigantic monstrosities on land and oceans seem relatively calm, human-sized beetles and fungi threaten to stop human expansion.

As the various factions strive to take control, each will research and develop many new technologies, discovering new weapons and industries, while opening trade agreements and forging alliances with other factions to impose itself.
As they spread, they will discover ancient ruins of extraterrestrial civilizations that will give them advantages over their rivals.
