About the game
The Synod was satisfied, despite the nominal loss of ships and money, that the Terran Alliance had sustained enough damage during the conflict to effectively contain it for the time being. Distracted with numerous wars and encouraged in their complacency by a seemingly contained Terran menace, the Synod has turned to other more pressing conflicts in other sectors. The Synod has contracted the Ghost systems and some Consensus systems to provide garrison troops for Synod held worlds within the Sol Sector. Ghost Fleets patrol the star systems still held by the Synod and provide a deterrent against any Fallen aggression. The Ghost Fleet is the primary antagonist in the Great Unification War campaign. It provides both Gruntz and FUBAR stats for 16 Ghost units and BOHICA stats for 8 Terran Alliance Starships, mines and fighters. —description from the publisher
