In a time long ago there existed an ancient being known as the monoprint.  It was through its will that created the first draughtnauts to colonize the solar system.  THese first draughtnauts quickly founded the first great colonies, that was until a great calamity befell Their civilization! Their home star went supernova and all remnants of the ancient bases were eradicated from space!  But all was not lost.  The monoprint had survived and was sent hurtling through the gallaxy.  as it passed by other stars it would shed some of its energy to seed a new Draughtnaut colony until the entire galaxy was filled with new Draughtnaut bases!  perhaps too many...as the armies begin assembling, Which colony will come to dominate the entire galaxy?
