Earth, the home of the Human race, our most precious sapphire pearl of the cosmos..
The Interstellar Cultural Confederation is a faction of humans broken off from the rest, driven from Earth eons ago, are losing their home. Exathra is losing it's ability to sustain life. As a final, desperate move, the ICC have mobilized their armada to attack and conquer Earth on August the 14th, in the name of the Confederation.
Secret agents of the United Galactic Trade Organization lost their lives transmitting this information back to Earth, and thier ship was destroyed by Exathra's planetary defense systems soon after the transmission was detected.
The UGTO have called back every active ship on duty, to return home to defend Earth.
The ICC have begun to mobilize in deep space outside of Pluto's orbit.
The alien threat called the K'Luth, have become very interested in this sudden gathering, and have also begun to gather forces nearby the lone star.
After centuries of Peace, Earth is once again at a time of conflict.

If this is an official part of the story update, then im assuming the mi are going to show up or.. they will take everything in sag while we are gone.. or one of the factions is going down and will be replaced with mi.......

Does the event end when ICC captures Earth, or when the time is 11:59 PM(CST)?
Will this be UGTO vs ICC mainly, or is it meant to be a 3-sided war over Earth?
Will enemy factions be 'allowed' some planets before the event so that they can estabilish a shipyard for spawning purposes, or do they have to fight for a foothold?
Are planets in Sol part of the event aswell? Will other star systems also be valid components of the event?
Will there be prizes for the winning faction?
I'm SERIOUSLY hoping you don't confirm the validity of Q.4, those potatorocks have ancient and weak builds, last one updated months ago! (excluding those that im slowly updating just recently). If the other planets are valid event targets, I might end up needing cooperation from other UGTO fleets for carrying out maintenance duties x_x

Not that I'm planning this, but it basically looks like an excuse to get a bunch of people together to have a punch-up, and Earth just happens to be a planet that everyone is familiar with. So it's business as usual, except that someone's gone to the forums and said "Hey! Wouldn't it be cool if we got a bunch of people to attack Earth at such-and-such a time?"
Lore-wise, I'm having trouble working out how this could happen, barring some kind of horrible defeat of UGTO, since one of the main objectives of the war is "stop the enemy from getting to our core worlds", the other main objective being "defeat the enemy and capture their core worlds".
You'd kinda think that UGTO forces would have intercepted the ICC around about the front-line systems, really.
But hey, punch-ups are fun, I suppose, so yeah. For fairness, though, there should probably be events like this around the other homeworlds, too, so that it's not just Earth that gets bombed and razed to death.

Yeah if this isnt something official than i think this is just an excuse for people to get together and try to take earth from ugto without having to fight through sag legitimately...
