Enemy Battlegroup is inbound on a HIGH CONFIDENCE intercept trajectory. Has not responded with CLEAR/OK to our hails and is HOSTILE. Looks like a stand up fight, Commander. Waiting for your go...

From a distance it is elegant.
Up close it is hell.
If you miss this shot...
Everyone On This Ship Will Die.

It does not star faceless men and women who simply exist to die. From one perspective, a battle begins at the top of the corpo-states and interstellar governments that shape the galaxy's fate. A decision for trade, for commerce, for strategic concerns, puts pressures here and creates tremors there and these pieces build and build and build until they explode in violence.
Until they become the Diamond Shoals.
But from another perspective, a battle begins with the people who will die in it.
To understand Diamond Shoals, to understand the convulsions that would echo from it and ring not merely along the Dawnline Shore, but also, throughout the entire galaxy...you need to know the people who would die in it.
And one of the most important dwells on the orb below...
[ ] A swirling metropolitan world called Central-Second-Two, where a young officer from the Union Navy Corps is about to receive their first marching orders.
[ ] A desert swept world on the Periphery of Baronic Space, with a struggling noble family seeking to find new life. There, a graduate from the Karrakin Naval Academy is about to receive their first command.
[ ] A oceanic world of deep lakes and deeper seas, scattered archipeligo. Three nation-states here, and two of them don't recognize the Union as an equal despite its vast size. There, the one nation-state that looks to the stars took up the mantle of their Orbital Defense Force. There, one officer in the ODF gets a nasty surprise.
[ ] The capital world of Harrison Armory, location of Purview Interstellar College, Harrison Armory's newest and only naval academy. One graduate here is going to step into history.
[ ] The Honest Truth, a roughly spheroid shaped space station that orbits around Argo Navis once every three standard Cradle years. A buzzing hive of commercial and military activity, the ISP-N Corpostate uses the Honest Truth to train their naval officers. Among them, one has been given their first orders.
