The year is 2195, and an alien race known as the Formics is currently at war with Earth. With this new common enemy, the nations of the world formed an uneasy truce and created the Hegemony, a single government that would govern the world, led by an elected official, the Hegemon. However, ever since the Second Invasion, the general public has been unaware of the ongoing battle between the Hegemony and the Formics. In addition, the battle school that has been publicly training young cadets to prepare for a potential Formic invasion has actually been using the cadets to attack the Formics directly by convincing the cadets that the attacks they have been leading have all been simulations. It is currently the job of the Hegemony to ensure that Juke Limited, an incredibly powerful company owned by the son of the current Hegemon, is still supplying the battle school with weapons, while also keeping the Third Formic War a secret from both the general public and the cadets currently fighting in the war. How will the Hegemony win this war without the public taking notice? Will relations between the Hegemony and Juke Limited remain friendly? What tactics will the Hegemony use to outsmart and defeat the Formics? Delegates must create a plan to repel the Formics and not destroy trust in the government while they’re at it.
