Limited colonization takes place over the next 40 years.

The UEF seeks to impose order upon the Cybran and Aeon splinter factions.
These symbionts are integral to a colony's survival and perform a variety of roles, from menial domestic laborers to technicians and scientists. Therefore, they still use large numbers of submissive Cybran workers, called symbionts in UEF space, which usually come from cloned stock and have been subtly programmed to be obedient to EarthCom. They see nothing wrong with utilizing technology, including genetic engineering, to help achieve that lauded goal. Their main focus is their military might, and their prime virtue is order. They are attempting to rebuild the Empire that fell at the onset of the Infinite War, and with memory of such dark times still present all around them, UEF leaders can be driven to justify extreme measures. They believe that this is necessary to ensure galactic order and the common good. Personality The UEF rulers are expansive, aggressive, and authoritarian. For this reason, UEF communities very rarely contain vagabonds and homeless individuals. Positively contributing to society and personal improvement is a way of life for UEF citizens. UEF colonists really band together when times are tough. Ancient religions are as varied and diverse as they were in prewar days and continue to be a motivating factor for many.Įven if individuals differ in their political or social perspectives, the single most common trait shared by every UEF citizen is their sense of brotherhood and community. Each has his own opinion on how the government should achieve its goals and whether or not the UEF even has the right to try and restore something that failed so long ago. They desire stability and order, but their ideas on how this should be achieved vary widely. They are artisans, athletes, craftsmen, warriors, and philosophers. You get a sense for the zoom factor in Supreme Commander when you pull the camera back for a wide view of the battlefield.Ĭulture The average UEF citizen is not too different from a 21st-century American. This time it promises to remain conscious of the lures of greed and corruption that led to the Empire's downfall by tempering individual ambition with a new, united camaraderie. As the United Earth Federation, it is driven to restore its former glory, pursuing the ideals of brotherhood, honor, and tradition-the virtues that once made it great. It gathered power unto itself and eventually initiated a strategy to reunite all worlds under Earth's banner. Only the core of Earth Command (EarthCom), the military arm of the now-shattered Earth Empire, remained to carry on the torch of a united Earth-descended government. Eventually, the Empire grew so large that it could no longer support itself it fragmented and plunged into chaos and civil war. Through innovation, ambition, and desire, the Empire expanded its borders into the furthest reaches of the galaxy. Its history dates back to precolonial days, when travel to other worlds was still but a dream. The Earth Empire, which would eventually become the United Earth Federation, was the original society from which the other two factions (Aeon and Cybran) splintered. History of the UEF By Gas Powered Games Staff The game isn't due until next year, so make sure to check back with us regularly for the latest information on Supreme Commander. We have background information about the UEF straight from the developers at Gas Powered, as well as a timeline of history. Over the course of the next few months, we're going to examine the game's three factions up close, starting with the United Earth Federation. The United Earth Federation is the successor to the Earth Empire. Supreme Commander will put you in charge of one of three futuristic factions in the battle for Earth, though what makes Supreme Commander special is that instead of battling on small maps, you'll employ strategic skill as you command armies on huge swaths of territory that are thousands of square kilometers in size. Now Taylor's Gas Powered Games is busy working to deliver on the game's promise. Supreme Commander wowed audiences at last month's Electronic Entertainment Expo, and the next real-time strategy game from Total Annihilation creator Chris Taylor came away with the Game Critic's Best Strategy Game award.
