Good decriptions of the game

Rifts space in a galaxy far far away, war tor in the midst of a galaxy spanning war between the fed com (local military) and the bugs (a combination of starhives from phazeworld and the bugs from starship troopers ((not the sequal movies)).) . the game is heavy intrigue and role playing then combat rollplaying. Its deffinately a more evil gave as far as the players with the biggest factor of them working as a group is security and the p..s are the most profitable people any of them have ever met. Oh and  full of shenanigans. 

The nuts and bolts about this galaxy is they used to be phazeworld tech level and most of this galaxy was populated or colonized or what ever (records from that era are lost to the cosmic winds). 1000 thousand years ago the a.i. war broke out. (plunged society into a new dark age). The various surviving races started clawing thier way back. (think battle star galactica style). 100 years ago the bugs started to spread across the galaxy. Before they were stopped half the galaxy had been scurged/eaten destroyed. Now the bugs have come again but thier different thier taking and securing territory (think the star hives . Not as powerfull individually but more numerous like the starship troopers bugs). This then is what the players get started into. on the fringes of the galaxy.

Simple and straight forward.
