• Episode 84 - The Age of Strife

  On today’s cast we cover the transition from Age of Technology into the Age of Strife. We open with mankind’s unification into the federation. Then we cover the mass appearance of psychers across the galaxy, and how they began to cause chaos into the federation. But then things get massively worse as the men of iron rise up in the cybernetic rebellion. We spend time talking about the nightmare that was the cybernetic rebellion, both during and the effects of it afterwards. After this, the warp turns effectively opaque and the entire galaxy begins to burn with the effects of it. We then close out focusing on Sol during this period, with a focus on the planets and quick aside into the unification wars.
