One Small Step for Man, One Giant Leap for Mankind

This is a Traveller 2nd edition game. The game will not be taking anyplace that is cannon in the Traveller universe. The game is mostly military based, with heavy influence on politics. The Milky-Way alliance has attempted to bring the Hraangar Galaxy into their government, but the Dinet race that has been advanced enough to control six planets of the nine planet galaxy had declared war upon the human's arrival. The war was not declared verbally, but when Dinet ships blew-up an ambassador's ship that was carry terms of peace. The Milky-Way alliance currently is comprised of Earthlings (Humans), a race found on Europa (they call themselves Ythuric. They were advanced enough to have control of Neptune, Saturn and Pluto when their home was discovered by Humans), and a race found on Venus (they were unnamed when Human's and Ythuric's found them. They gave them the name of Orian. They were as advanced as humans in the 21st century). Currently, in the Hraangar Galaxy, the Milky-Way alliance holds three planets, and is fighting with the Dinet for a fourth that is Earth-like. The three planets currently held by the Milky-Way alliance are Bakek, Bak and Igen. The planet that is under constant battle is Nid. The Dinet currently hold three planets: Asip, Deckon and Feur. The Dinet are also currently trying to get hold of Nid. Nid was uninhabited when the Milky-Way alliance and the Dinet started their siege, though it seems that there was once life due to archaic stone structures that litter the landscape. There are two other planets in the galaxy that are not involved in the war but are inhabited. The Falkiks inhabit a neighboring planet of the Dinet by the name of Bairur. They are as advanced as the Dinet, but they're not the violent type. They only allow dockings of Dinet though, because they don't want to lose their trade with them. The outermost planet in this galaxy is called Norfek. It is home to giant nitrogen-based-life-forms by the name of Tordegs. They have absolutely no opinion of the war and allow both governments to land as long as no fighting erupts. The Tordegs are more advanced than both the Dinet and the Ythuric combined. They don't speak out loud, but they speak telepathically, and Norfek is currently the only planet under their control. I would like at least 8 players, at least one to be a diplomat and one to be a soldier of some kind. It is not a requirement for those types of players to be created, it would just be interesting for the campaign.
