Sparta has overthrown the corrupt government on Earth and replaced it with leaders intent on bringing Earth up to the technological level of the Alliance. The Alliance Engineers are installing machines that provide free food and clothing for all of Earth’s Citizens. However, they are being attacked by rebels claiming that Sparta is intent on conquering and ruling Earth. The rebellion is spreading and Jesse is forced to fight the rebels with weapons and volunteers from Earth. Sparta will defend the Alliance Installations but to use Spartan Warriors and weapons to put down the rebellion would only prove the rebels are right in their assertions of Spartan Rule. To make matters worse, Sparta can’t go to fight with the Gracken against the Weg until the rebellion is ended. The war with the Weg is not going well and the Gracken are counting on Sparta to join them in the defense of planets that are infested with Weg Queens. Jesse calls on Joshua Adams to form an Elite Unit to take on the rebels and, though he doesn’t think the young officer can make an immediate difference, he gives Joshua and Pricilla the tools they’ll need to face their enemy. The action is continuous from fighting the Rebels on Earth to facing off against millions of charging Weg. The Weg are winning and Joshua will have to build the walls needed to hold them back.
