Yeah in retrospect it is and is offer my apology for that. I'm also guilty of not only abusing the "post apocalyptic" theme, but generally using it incorrectly. Perhaps it would have been better stated such: In the 31st century man has searched beyond earth for desperately needed resources. Sadly only a handful of planets were found to contain usuable resources. The earths goverments long ago gave way to 4 private corporations which control vast "defensive" millitarys. At the beginning of the 31st century the "Division Compact" was signed by the ruling corporations, which basically states force will be used to achieve control of the off-worlds resources. The 4 corporations use advanced millitary weaponry each utilizing natural gas as a fuel source. This very fuel source is one of the precious resources sought after which serves to limit the number of units commited to a campaign. I am attempting to work in the harsh enviroments Herzog Zwei on a planet wide scale.
The people of earth now pay there taxes based on the results the corporation achieves: i.e.; corporation A loses 5 out of 7 battles and the public loses trust in thier ability to secure the resources which trickle down to each citizen, and the cost of the losing corporations production increases. In a sense I wanted to show a sort of capitalism gone over the top. I'm also thinking about the idea of govermentalist. That would be groups that wish return to the standard goverment systems of old and occasionally sabotage the corporations through captured technology.
To me there are elements that seem to have real potential. The thought of a group of people who recognise that raw unchecked capitalism is actually destroying the society as a whole is very interesting to me. I think we typically see things from the opposite perspective in real life.
Honestly this probably seems poorly thought out, and a bit all over the place, and to some extent it certainly is. I was merely wandering if anyone else thought this even remotely sounded interesting.
