First Contact War



The First Contact War began in 2147 when Alliance troops had discovered an giant mass relay which was actually in the core of a rotating mass around Pluto, assumed to be a random moon planet or an asteroid. A small group of Alliance Soldiers were picked to observe the relay after scientists believed to have activated it, the small group of soldiers were sucsessfully sent through and discovered even more relay's lying on the other side of the galaxy. After sucsessful re-establishment of other relays Alliance soldiers were working to activate yet another, but soon were discovered by a Turian Special Forces squad, instead of being dealt with peacefully they opened fire, thus causing the First Contact War (Most likely due to first contact with extraterrestrial life). Not holding back Alliance soldiers fought their way through the space battle, a single crew told to retreat and to tell Alliance, after recieving news Alexander Tillery organized at least 30 single attack ships to send in, all capable of size they held the Turians back, thinking they were here to destroy the Mass Relay and endanger their life.

Alliance forces were not prepared for any space battle and were forced to retreat into the mass relay and back to The Local Cluster, landing on Grettchen, a small - but advanced colony which lies upon Titan. (See the location Grettchen for more details) After a horrific battle scene Alliance soldiers were able to uphold Grettchen and cause Turian forces to retreat back into the relay, Alexander Tillery recieiving news from his current location in Antartica conducted a meeting of special forces within the Alliance, making sure he would rally up the best people in put them into teams to defeat the unknown force,Captain Harris being among these people. Tillery had commanded 5 squads of at least 10 people in each, sending approximately 50 men into battle, an huge space war had been declared against Turians and Humans, the council from which the Turians came from had not recieved news, and the Turians were not planning on telling them, sure they could handle the conflict on their own. A strong war waged on for 2 - 3 months while Turian and Human soldiers camped and based on surrounding planets, even on the same one and near eachother, although more soldiers were sent through Alliance Special Organizations were to keep a low profile, this causing many soldiers in ASO to stay alive unlike others in battle.
