"The Last Ship" how i see it
if this was in a futuristic game i would imagine it as this:
in the beginning there is a headsup about the situation in the year 2274:
wars have been fought,billions have died...but from the ashes of the annihilated empire,our new savior has risen...the citadel(show a giant space station *i'm not using the story of ME1&2*)
a galactic council made of all sorts of different species who swore to protect the galaxy and it's people.
but after so many years of hope and peace...a new,strong and common enemy's is rising.and the only way to destroy it and ensure the safety of the galaxy,foe and friend has to stick their hands together.
but not all is as we want it,despite our best efforts,we couldn't stand the line...our enemy's have destroyed our worlds,enslaved our people and killed our leaders.
and after all these years,only a small group of races excist,one of them is humanity,this is where our story begins.
humanity...with it's enduring capabilities has almost always hold the line...but they are weakening,and to stop the madness of our enemy we have studied a soldier fit to accomplish something nobody could,save the galaxy...that soldier is you...(game begins and shows the antagonist on a rock,the suns starts to rise behind him)
this is a litlle bit of a book i'm writing,i hope you liked this,both the reviewers and brokendeck.
if you give permission i would like to use this as the intro.
