We all use to be alone. Conflict use to be against ourselves. Even when we
expanded into the vastness of space we were still alone for the most part.
War has always been apart of every civilization throughout the universe.
Even the most humble and apathetic cultures know of war and its uses. But
war has not always been a sport. No. It was used to get what the other had
or to finish a disbute and etc. It was like that for Trillions of years.
Until they came.....

The Ancient Ones they called themselves. They had immense power. Their
species has had been around since the begining of time. They are the
oldest species throughout the universe. Mostly machine they were. Big grey
and red they were. No emotions. They had tremendous powers. They could
bring back the dead. They could transport whole star systems to anywhere
in the galaxy without corrupting the gravitational pull and other such
things. The Ancient ones knew the effects of war. How wrong and bad it
was. They wanted to let us know. To let us feel. They began the horrible
games. A sport it was. They transported star systems next to other star
systems and ordered the people to fight. If they refused every single
person of both sides were killed and then brought back. Death.... was a
harsh punishment, being brought back...even harder. A human by the name of
John Thatcheringhow somehow convinced these so called Ancient Ones to let
him pick and choose who faces who. He con them. He con them immensly. Soon
he started up the sport. The Conqueror's League he called it. The
participates played if they liked it or not. They got to keep the
territory they conquered. They got to kill and destroy. Most civilizations
learn to fight. It ended abruptly one day.

But now after a few thousand years its back and so is he. John now has the
power. The Ancient Ones are now extinct. Blood, money, and repeated
annihilation was at his command.

Are you ready?...for the Conqueror's League
