A universe that never sleeps

A living, breathing galaxy

Rival empires rise, fall, scheme and go to war on their own. The galaxy is never the same twice.

  • Empires with ambition

    Rival powers expand, forge alliances and declare war on their own, and they don't take kindly to trespassers.

  • Borders that never stand still

    Today's map is not tomorrow's. Worlds are won and lost every day.

  • Peace you can shatter

    Rival envoys meet to end their wars. One well-placed shot, and the war goes on.

  • Skies that are never empty

    Traders, patrols and war fleets crowd the stars at every hour.

With your friends

Forge your own empire

Start a faction with your friends and put it on the map. Take worlds under your own flag, then build them up until everyone flying past can see whose they are.

    Name it, pick your colours, raise your emblem and recruit pilots to your cause.

  2. Hold worlds

    Plant your flag on new worlds and watch the map turn your colour. Then build the defences to keep them.

  3. Build them up

    Grow a frontier settlement into a terraformed world, its city towers rising until they break the skyline.

    1. Settlements
    2. Orbital Ring
    3. Ring Stations

The four powers

Four powers already hold the galaxy

Four great powers hold the edges of the galaxy, and nobody holds the centre. Each wants something different. The Crimson Fleet is recruiting now, and the others are coming.

A war fleet that builds.

The galaxy has laughed at the Fleet for two hundred years. The Fleet answered by building ships. Admiral Vesk runs it from Harrowhold.
