The Play-Off Planet: A very brief history.

The Play-Off Planet over the years has established a long history of pragmatic rule for approximately 44 weeks of every Old earth year. The majority of the time, when they are not being plagued by epic battles spanning the entire expanse of their globe they have a fairly normal existence. They rarely let themselves be troubled by too much ideology or political philosophy as they have very little desire to “upset the applecart” when it comes to the uncontrollable war that overtakes them from time to time.

The terrors of war, have been accepted by these people from day 1. In fact the yearly tragedy that they are put through provides an environment where population control, despite being a relatively small planet has never been an issue, nor has lack of resources for the quickly developing areas. Not to mention that constantly being in a state of rebuilding has provided for a strong economy, where jobs are prevalent and where economic growth is constantly stimulated by a need for restructuring the cities. This also makes for a strong infrastructure that must be able to withstand much abuse, but is also never in danger of getting old or worn out when powerhouses from other worlds show up twice a year to destroy it.

The truth is, that they are a resilient people if not an overly bright group; but in recent years the tide has changed for a small; but growing segment of the population. It is they who have been wondering what life would be like free of the cosmic terrors that plague them.

The following stories will scratch the surface as to what these ideas will bring for their future and the future of The Play-Off Planet as a whole.
