Submarine Titans

Background

25 Million Years Ago, Man evolved out of the ocean. In 2047, He goes back! In the year 2047, a massive comet slams into the Earth's surface and the shell-shocked remnants of mankind descend into the liquid cradle of creation in order survive.After a hundred years, the resilient humans have slowly created a new life for themselves in the plains and mountains of this cool blue universe. But even in the ebbing stillness of the deep one harsh reality remains - where man goes, war follows.Two distinct humanoid races have evolved and flourished in their seagoing colonies and now the oceans of the world are not big enough for them both. The power hungry White Sharks who horde the remaining resources and the Black Octopi who blend their love for technology with the fragile ecosystem of their new underwater home find themselves embroiled in escalating conflict. Their squabbles are quietly observed by the "Silicons", a stranded alien race entrenched in a deep crater, who have decided these warring factions are of no use to them alive... Submarine Titans takes real-time strategy deep into a 3-dimensional underwater universe where armies are deployed, terrain is deformed and precious resources are mined. A precise plan of attack is required to gain control of this spellbinding abyss or find the fate of civilization and mankind in the water.
