The trailer above explains some beginnings of the Battlestation universe. There is quite a lot written actually, we have a book. The only problem right now is the fact that it exists only in Finnish We have some snippets of the book in the "sci-fi book" section on these forums.

Our resources are quite limited as a game studio, and for this reason we haven't had the time or the resources to think the back story through completely. We do have a pretty good framework though, the Unknown being the evil and everybody else looking to colonize new planets and dominate the galaxy. Some of the races are just outright out looking for the reason why bad things happened to them in the past.

I have to say I'm quite proud of the world we have created, granted it's probably not something truly out of this world kind of stuff, but it's also not the unoriginal material that it could be

We had an idea regarding Battlestation: Humanity's Last Hope, where different officers (Engineers, Scientists, Pilots and Marines) would lead Androids. So most of the grunt work in every department would be done by Androids but human officers would lead them, and even give them abilities based on their own strengths.

So in this sense most of the bulk personnel would be Androids, while all the leading stuff is done by experienced human Officers and Commanders.

The trailer above shows how all of this started, why humans decided to build the very first Battlestation (That you control in Battlestation: First Contact episode 1 and Battlestation: Classic). Battlestation: Harbinger would be some time after this, when humans have managed to fight back and get some territory back again. It could also be before all of this, when humans were spread out and starting to lose territory

So many great questions! The one cool thing about all of this is the fact that the Battlestation universe is practically endless. We can create a bunch of new games into the universe and slowly the story will unfold with these games. The world will become bigger and bigger and maybe one day there will be a good picture of the whole universe and how everything is related.
