The Alpha Centauri Wars (later Alpha Orionis Wars) are a series of huge team mode events open to the community consisting of 3 teams ( although in the past it was up to 5), usually with each garnering over 50 players, and a huge map. There have been over 20 Alpha Centauri wars events to date, with a new one each month(on special occasions there can be two events per month). The Alpha Centauri event is named after the nearest star to earth, the Alpha Centauri triple-star system, which also includes the star Proxima Centauri (Alpha Centauri C), of which one of the events in the Alpha Centauri series was named for. The creators of the Alpha Centauri Wars are Ethereal and Ancient Sky, as well as some artistic collaboration from Commander Andromeda.

The Alpha Centauri Wars are essentially regular team mode games but with some notable changes. While a regular team mode game can have a maximum of ~65 players, Alpha Centauri Wars can regularly take an upwards of about ~250 players. It takes far more gems to upgrade the base, usually taking an upwards of 320,000 gems to fill a level 4 base, with U-series it's 640,000 gems, but it only takes less than 1% of capacity to repair. The aliens at the sun are also far stronger but have a much higher gem yield. Due to a combination of these changes, Alpha Centauri Wars tend to last several hours; some in the past have lasted over eight hours. This event now often uses mods; KEST is often used but U-Series, Nautic Series, and Alien Intrusion have been used in the past as well.

Story [UNDER CONSTRUCTION][ | ]

This is a continued and reworked version of the original story written by ThirdEyeMan, with the intent to make it a flexible story and timeline where other writters can create their own fan-ficiton without severe interference of the original story written by ΛNCIENT SKY.

Preface · The Beginning[ | ]

Humans, beings that are gifted the ability to question, to philosophize, to discover, to invent, to believe, to destroy, and to live. These beings look up to the stars and question if they will ever reach them, or, find something undiscovered in the dark and deep abyss of space. Will these beings ever live among these stars? Will they ever live in the void of space? It all begins with an important discovery in a neighboring star system, the Alpha Centauri System.

4.2 light-years (1.3 parsecs) away from the Solar System, the Alpha Centauri System has one of the most important planets discovered in the 21st century: Proxima Centauri b (Alpha Centauri Cb). Discovered on the terrestrial year 2016 in the Habitability Zone of the red dwarf Proxima Centauri (Alpha Centauri C), scientists began to speculate about the possibility that there was life there. Two decades later, in 2036, NASA launched the mission 'Breakthrough Starshot'. The mission consists of a research probe that utilizes a solar sail, with the objective of studying the geological, atmospheric, and any potential biological characteristics of the planet.

After a long exchange of information between the mission's probe and the JPL (Jet Propulsion Laboratory), NASA published a detailed report with a breakthrough discovery: there was life in Proxima Centauri b. This begged the question, should humans be sent to this planet in an attempt to research and colonize it? Eventually, SpaceX and NASA cooperated to create the first interstellar ship, the IXS Falcon Enterprise. The ship consisted of a large research crew, each with hand-to-hand combat training and a specialty in research, 10 years worth of supplies, multiple laboratories, rooms, and even areas for entertainment. A feat of engineering that shocked the entire world, but little did they know, this would fundamentally change human civilization forever.

The year 2067, the IXS Falcon Enterprise has launched from the Moon, traveling at speeds faster than light. Upon arriving Proxima Centauri b within a couple months, the crew is shocked to see a planet that looks similar to Earth. Proxima Centauri b is flourishing with plants and creatures with similar features to the life on Earth. The air on the planet is breathable, but the entire crew wears full protective gear and takes serious biohazard measures to ensure no possible biological threat can kill them. These measures go as far as a researcher who has been exposed to the biological contents of this planet, are to be executed. After spending a year collecting, storing and researching the planet, the majority of the crew departs to bring the samples to Earth. Twelve crew members remain on the planet and their task is to research more about the planet for the next 6 Earth months, until a new research crew arrives.

A trio of researchers have given themselves the task to explore uncharted territory, closer to the equator of the planet. They packed themselves enough supplies to spend a week away from the research facility. After a couple days of traveling south, one of the researchers slipped and happen to smash his helmet's visor on a pointy rock. This created a crack in his visor, which exposed the researcher to breathe unfiltered air of the planet. A few minutes later, the researcher begins to have a fever while coughing up fleme and blood. Seemingly, there was not much time left for the researcher, as he is on the ground continuously coughing while the two other researchers watch helplessly. Two tall purple humanoid creatures come out of a nearby bush, which scares the two researchers and makes them take out their rifles. They are quickly stopped by more of the humanoid creatures and are carried to a civilization of these humanoid creatures. The sick researcher is given a medicine which quickly makes him recover from the sickness, making the researchers trust the humanoid creatures. The two other reseachers are offered to drink the medicine and they both accept, allowing them to unfiltered breathe air of the planet while being able to fight off biological threats. Among the researchers, they began to debate whether they should return to the facility, however, they decided they will not out of the fear they may be executed because they've been exposed to the planets life.

The two species began to converse by trying to learn each others language for the next few days, but the humanoid creatures learns English far faster than the humans can learn the unknown language. It is learned that these tall humanoid creatures call themselves the Innesians and are extremely intelligent. They are gifted with large eyes that can read information about any object, which they learned that humans are not too much different than humans, hence why they knew the medicine would work. Despite being extremely intelligent, the Innesians forbid technological advancements as they understand it requires destroying what they live to protect, creation and nature. The only time they use technology, is when its needed.

An elderly Innesian arrives to the civilization and gathers the civilians to pay attention. The Elder mentions that a new and final cycle has begun and they will have to do whatever is possible to protect this planet. One of the Innesians explains to the researchers that the Elder is a master in reading the universe, which allows him to sense when a new cycle has begun. Unsure of what they mean by a new cycle, the researchers begin to debate about going back to the research facility to show the other researchers that living on this planet is possible. The air is breathable and there is a lot of plantlife that is completely edible, while also boosting your immune system.

The researchers decide to take the huge risk and venture back to the research facility. Upon arriving back to the research facility, they are greeted by the other researchers. The travelling researchers explain to the other researchers that humans can naturally live on the planet due to how similar the life is to Earth's life. One of the travelling researchers take out a bottle filled with the medicine and gives it to the other reasearchers. All of the researchers can now safely breathe the air of the planet. During the time the twelve researchers wait for the next crew to arrive, they begin learning how to mass grow crops on this planet.

The next research crew arrives and the captain of the crew sends a call to the research facility. The research facility explains to the captain it is safe to live on Proxima Centauri b and it is now a new home. Hesitant at first, the arriving crew decide to trust the words of the twelve researchers and eat the plantlife on the planet. Some of the crew members had digestion issues on the first day and second day, but their bodies eventually adapted to the new foods. Over the next two years, some of the reseachers began having kids, the first humans born in a different star system. Proxima Centauri was on its way to become another planet that will be inhabited by humans, however, the three travelling reasearchers know there will be conflict over this. They are the only ones that encountered the Innesians and know their prescence.

One day, skyscraped sized pod ships began landing on Proxima Centauri b. A species of aliens invades Proxima Centauri b, destroying parts of the research facility and captured colonizers. Before the invaders could fully capture the colonizers, one of the ship captains managed to send a transmisison back to Earth, saying that there is an alien invasion. Only one researcher, the researcher that got saved by the Innesians from sickness, managed to flee. He arrived to the same spot he first encountered the Innesians, and to his surprise, a couple Innesians were waiting in a nearby bush armed with long swords this time. The researcher is brought to the civilization of Innesians, a valley full of gargantuan trees, which allows the civilization to evade the invasion for the meantime. One of the Innesians brings the researcher to talk to the Elder. The Elder explains that the new and final cycle begun because humans made themselves visible once they traveled out of thier own star system.

Earth recieved the devastating transmission, which resulted in the creation of the New World Army, an army composing of 600 thousand soliders and a special divsion of 3300 fighting spaceships, the first real battle these ships and pilots will be going through. After a year of preperation, the army is sent to the Alpha Centauri system, while another larger army is being formed. Many troop-carrier ships land on the planet around the research facility, however, they are already being shot at by the invading aliens. Ground troops push their way into the research facility while the ships clear the invading ships, but there are no signs of the crew being present anywhere. Many large camps are set up near the research facility while a temporary space station has been pieced together in the planet's orbit. Innesians, alongside with the researcher, decided to go talk with the soliders. The soldiers were ready to fire at first, but luckily, the researcher managed to calm them down that they are native to the planet and are not here to harm. He explains that Innesian scouts have traced where the crew is located and it is not too far away.

The soldiers prepare to save the crew, however, there seems to be a lot of tension among the soldiers, like they almost want to fight each other. The soldiers arrive to where the crew is and have a long battle with the invaders. Alongside with the Innesians, they managed to save the crew, who were being enslaved to mine the planet for resources. This stirs some weird conflict among the soldiers, that seemingly came out of no where. Some of the soldiers begin arguing about whether they should mine the planet in order to continue human civilization and some begin to argue they should form their own civilization independent from Earth. Two factions are created among the soldiers; the United Nations Green Eagles and the Proxima Mining Front.

The Innesians and the researcher made their way back to the secret valley. They discussed about how the planet is now a warzone and it will change. The Elder said that technology is necessary in this time. He took out a red crystal from his toga, looked at it and mentioned that it is the final cycle. Using his bare hand, the Elder shatters the crystal, causing a visible warp in the space around him, and the warping expands in a blink of an eye. He talked about how new information exists in the universe and this information will be necessary.

A few Earth days later, perculliar events were occurring during a laser weapons test. The glow from the targets were appearing brighter and the heat was far more concentrated. The testers decided to continue running the tests. Once they got to stronger laser lasers, red crystals began appearing, then dissipate into heat. This discovery remains unexplained, but, it lead to a new branch of technology. These crystals were like wind, but in everything, seemingly infinite free energy to the human race. All what was needed to rip these gems into reality, was a high concentration of heat beamed onto a target.

[Stopped here]

This mineral, formed due to the astrophysical characteristics of the star Proxima Centauri and the tectonic activity of Proxima Centauri b, has a very interesting particularity: we will not go into the mineralogical details because that would require a complete article, but the Frotmerium, due to its peculiar crystalline structure, can compress and store an enormous amount of energy in a little space, which makes it extremely attractive for the interstellar and intergalactic travels. All the Earth Space Agencies began to send Mining Vessels to exploit the Frotmerium ores, while they discovered that in Proxima Centauri b there were intelligent humanoids living in the equatorial regions.

In the year 3900, the Earth received an unexpected transmission from the Alpha Centauri System: the terrestrial miner fleets had been intercepted and attacked by unknown ships. The message was clear, putting in check to all the nations of the Earth and also to the Proxima Centauri b inhabitants. Earth lost millions and millions of dollars for the destroyed spaceships, but Earth lost more for the thousands of humans, a lot of them very skilled pilots, who died during the attack.

On March 13, 4300, the UN received a message in an unknown language. After their decoding, they were learned that the message's emitters were the attackers of the Alpha Centauri System ships: pilots from a very advanced civilization coming from the Galactic Halo, and who threatened to exterminate anyone who went through the Alpha Centauri System with the intention of taking the valued Frotmerium.

On March 15 of the same year, the Earth received a new message, this time coming from the native civilization of Proxima Centauri b: the invaders were exterminating them little by little, doing with them immorals experiments and enslaving them to extract the mineral. The transmission transmitter was nothing more and nothing less than the leader of one of the planet clans, hidden with his family in a deep cave in the equatorial region. And he asked Humanity for help.

Chapter 1 · The First Alpha Centauri War[ | ]

On Saturdays July 8 and 15, 4337, the Earth Forces sent huge fleets with a lot of warships to the Sector 22 or χ, where Proxima Centauri b is located The mission: take revenge and establish peace. The captains were of three terrestrial factions: NWAC (New World Army Citizens), UNGE (United Nations Green Eagles) and PMF (Proxima Mining Front). At first, they fought together with the Innesians, the Proxima native humanoids, who were united in a warlike association known on Earth as CSF (Centauri Space Force). The common enemy: the Astrinomitas, name given to the Halo invaders. Their main attack group was known on Earth as Halo Corsairs.

Due to several causes, in the end, the space battle became an "all against all": an arena of blood, flesh, and metal floating in space. The NWAC is fundamentally a civil organization. The tension between them and the UNGE, a military organization, was decisive. Very different ways of doing things... The PMF is a paramilitary group, with rebels pilots eager for revenge, due to the 3900 massacre. They appreciated the initial support given by NWAC and UNGE, but they wanted to do things by their way. The CSF sought independence for Proxima Centauri b and its inhabitants. They appreciated the help, but they did not trust anyone anymore. On the other hand, the Halo Corsairs are space pirates: they survive through smuggling, invasion, and extortion. They have not other way. If we add to all this the unexpected betrayals (pilots from one Faction that suddenly worked for another Faction), and the Orbital Dysfunction Syndrome ("Pandorum"), we have an unstable situation whose end was the total violence.

The July 8 Battle won the PMF. This was a relief moment for the Earth. But this relief was brief as a supernova explosion: on July 15, the Corsairs took revenge. Taken Sector 22, which houses the innesian world, the Corsairs won the First Alpha Centauri War.

Humans and Innesians are now preparing for a brutal revenge, each species by its side and in its own way, which will surely crunch the fabric of the Cosmos.

To be continued...

The Teams[ | ]

Alpha Centauri has five different teams that have not changed as of yet:

They split with yellow for the first Alpha Centauri and swept the next two Alpha Centauri's in September and October. They had no success in the next Alpha Centauri, being obliterated in the December Alpha Centauri, but then winning the European event in January. They are currently the most dominant team in Alpha Centauri, though they have taken a step back in the last two Alpha Centauri's, then they have started to come back however the team has been obliterated repeatedly, not even really getting very close to winning in most.

They then proceeded to win the next Alpha Centauri due to a total collapse by the Halo Corsairs, and are still a strong force to be reckoned with, though they did not win the January Alpha Centauri. They have been putting up a huge fight against United Nations Green Eagles in the more recent ACWs, including winning against them several times.

United Nations Green Eagles[ | ]

The United Nations Green Eagles are presumably going to make a run at winning a second in a row in the February 2018 Alpha Centauri. Since September 2019 they have been crushing the other 2 teams in ACW in most of the events, even if they lose to NWAC they still put up a major fight.

Proxima Mining Front[ | ]

The Proxima mining front is the least successful team in Alpha Centauri, having been crushed in every Alpha Centauri's they been in.

Centauri Space Force[ | ]

Furthermore, they have never come particularly close to winning an Alpha Centauri for most of the ACWs, being crushed in each installment, they have had some better luck in the recent ones when they were one of the options. They have the second lowest win count, they won their first one in February 2018 and latter won Asia and America in the first-anniversary event.

Strategy[ | ]

CSF info

For your ship in Alpha Centauri, it is favorable to have a ship that can hold its own in combat, seeing as fighting someone is inevitable. It is also favorable for the majority of your team to mine, seeing as getting to the next tier before your opponents gives you a significant mining and combat advantage. Much of the event is mining until late in the event, where massive battles between dozens of tier sevens take place. Battles do still take place though, sometimes sizable groups, and watch out for attackers on your minimap, be close to where your teammates are at, as many people hunt for people to attack! It is also smart to have a pack of missiles and maybe a Torpedo later on so you can blow up tight groups, attack pods work really well and are the second most common pod to be used behind mining pod. (If you have a Torpedo during the level 4 group attacks you can get a large amount of gems and kills) the 3 best level 6 ships are the A-speedster (for level 7 killing abilities), the Condor (for both level 7 killing and fast mining (faster than A-speedster but slower than rock tower), and the rock tower (to quickly level up the base and to get a massive amount of credits) do note it is slightly harder to get these ships since the vanilla ship tree change(s) in April-May 2018.)

Note: The same idea works with U-series and KEST but with different ships on different parts of the said trees.

Creators' Notes[ | ]

  1. We will organize one event per month (12 per year), probably on mid-month weekends.
  2. The same weekend, we will organize as minimum 3 events: one for Asia/Australia (AS/AU), one for Europe (EU) and one for US/South America (AM). If there were many ping problems, we would consider opening 4 or 5 servers, one per region. The European and American events will be called 'Central Wars', and the Australian/Asian events, 'Auxiliary Wars'.
  3. Each battle will be for one of the Alpha Centauri Sectors. The complete results of the battles (Central Wars + Auxiliary Wars) will determine the dominion percentage for each sector ('Percentage of Sector Domain' or PSD), and the Map evolution. The Central Wars will account for 80% of domain (40% each) and the Auxiliary Wars 20%.
  4. For who do not want share the sector(s), we will could organize Extraordinary Battles (EB). There may be alliances that could generate puntual supermassive confrontations between 2 or 3 teams.
  5. There will be, for now, the 5 original Factions: NWAC, UNGE, PMF, CSF and Halo Corsairs. However, in the future, you will can create your own Faction to compete and participate on the story.
  6. There are some sectors that keep plot secrets.
  7. There will be a 'Hall of Fame' for the most courageous and committed pilots (one per month). There will be an Official Team Classification too.
  8. The story will evolve after each event, with an amazing Sci-Fi report accompanied with cool artwork.

Center Aliens[ | ]

Aliens also spawn at the sun during the match. They will attack any player in range regardless of the team. Unlike aliens in regular team mode games, these aliens are far stronger and give far more gems; the yellow hirsutes and yellow saucers which spawn give enough gems to completely fill up a tier 7 ship's cargo with one kill. As of the 9-13-19 update killing these aliens as well as the regular aliens in team mode gives the player no score and no longer count towards the player's frag count.

AOW (ACW Season 2)[ | ]

ACW was renamed to Alpha Orionis Wars.
