Former Marine Captain Alexander Hale only wanted a weekend out with some old buddies. He could have done without the gang war, the shootout, and...oh yeah, the alien abduction. Now he's in the middle of something he doesn't understand, never asked for, and is having quite possibly the greatest time of his life. Semper Fi and which way are the shores of Tripoli anyway?

A Signature Performance: Tim Curry, the source of our inspiration, returns – this time, he captures the quirky enthusiasm of this goofily visionary adventure.

Korzystajac z najnowszej technologii, umozliwiajacej podróze miedzygwiezdne, okret badawczy "Odyseja" wyrusza w dziewiczy rejs. Lecz kosmos nie jest tak pusty, jak moze sie wydawac z perspektywy naszej planety. "Odyseja" trafia prosto w srodek konfliktu miedzy dwoma rasami. Zaloga okretu staje w obliczu smiertelnie groznego, bardzo poteznego i znakomicie wyposazonego przeciwnika. Dysponuje o wiele mniej zaawansowana technologia, lecz musi sobie radzic za pomoca tego, co posiada. Ale czy podola wyzwaniu? I jakie beda konsekwencje poczynan Ziemian? Czy odwaga, poswiecenie i ludzka inteligencja sa w stanie zniwelowac dystans cywilizacyjny?

Wrogom zostaje zdradzony pilnie strzezony dotad sekret - wspólrzedne Ziemi. I tym razem to wcale nie zaloga "Odyssei" sprowadzila na Terran nieszczescie. To kapitan Sun z okretu Bloku Wschodniego, wracajac z wyprawy eksploracyjnej, nieopatrznie podaje polozenie ojczyzny. Reakcja nadzorców ze sfery Dysona jest natychmiastowa. Ku Ukladowi Slonecznemu nadciaga prawdziwa potega militarna, zlozona ze zbuntowanych dronów.

Inwazja obcych na Ziemie skapala miasta w ogniu i krwi. Niektórzy ludzie w panice rzucili sie do ucieczki, inni chwycili za bron, aby stawic czola Drasinom. "Odyseja" wypelnila swoja ostatnia misje - w atmosferze rodzimej planety siala zniszczenie wsród ladujacych dronów. I rozbila sie na Manhattanie. Dla kapitana Westona nie byl to jednak koniec zmagan. Tylko on walczyl z Drasinami w kosmosie. Tylko on tak dobrze znal wroga.

Trwa wojna ludzi z Sojuszem obcych. Sorilla i jej zespól podejmuja sie niezwykle trudnej misji uwolnienia zakladników przetrzymywanych na jednej z wrogich planet. Pomimo ze odbudowano orbitalne lacze na Swiecie Haydena, w dzungli nadal grasuja Straznicy, prowadzac partyzancka walke z oddzialami ludzi. Tymczasem w przestrzeni kosmicznej pojawia sie nowy gracz, który zachwieje ukladem sil - ale Ziemianie tez maja w zanadrzu niejedna niespodzianke.

Kapitan Eric Weston uratowal Ziemie przed drasinska rzezia. Jednak nie bedzie mu dane odpoczac, bo przed nim kolejna niebezpieczna misja. Wraz z zaloga "Odyseusza" musi wytropic tych, którzy steruja Drasinami, którzy przygotowali atak na Ziemian i Priminae. Sytuacja robi sie grozna, kiedy w przestrzeni kosmicznej natykaja sie na okret nalezacy do tajemniczych drasinskich wladców. To oni stoja za inwazja na planety Priminae i Uklad Sloneczny.

Beyond the confines of our small world, far from the glow of our star, lies a galaxy and universe much larger and more varied than anyone on Earth can possibly imagine. For the new NAC spacecraft Odyssey and her crew, the unimaginable facets of this untouched world are about to become reality. The Odyssey’s maiden voyage is an epic adventure destined to make history. Captain Eric Weston and his crew, pushing past the boundaries of security, encounter horrors, wonders, monsters, and people, all of which will test their resolve.

Nieugięte Imperium postawiło nowopowstały Sojusz Ziemski i sprzymierzonych z nim Priminae w sytuacji bez wyjścia. Komandor Stephen Michaels i jego Archanioły kontynuują misję na terytorium wroga, podając się za najemników i piratów, by zebrać jak najwięcej informacji o imperialnym dowództwie. Dzięki swoim staraniom odkrywają ponurą prawdę. Imperialne dążenia do wojny są zakorzenione głębiej, niż ktokolwiek mógłby podejrzewać... Podczas gdy jego młody przyjaciel i protegowany wykonuje jedną misję, Eric Weston boryka się z inną.

The world fell, the invaders won, and demons now ruled what had once been man's domain. The great works of a once powerful civilization lie in ruins, its people having forgotten the wonders of their forefathers as they now live in the yoke. Not everyone is willing to go quietly into the endless night, however. Human pests still infest occasional parts of the conquered world. In one nearly uninhabitable part of that world, a very young such pest has come of age and, without understanding what it means, she walks in the shadow of destiny.

Tajemnicza istota może być kluczem do przetrwania gwiezdnego okrętu… Albo kolejnym przerażającym zagrożeniem. Imperium zainteresowało się nowym celem – ludźmi, zwanymi też Terranami. Mieszkańcy Ziemi zdeklarowali się jako wrogowie Imperium i sojusznicy Priminae, więc siły Imperium zebrały informacje o kolebce ludzkości. W bitwie o planetę "Odyseusz" stanie w pierwszym szeregu. Jednak na Erica Westona i jego towarzyszy czyha więcej niebezpieczeństw. Zaostrza się konflikt dzielący rząd Ziemi, a tajemnicza istota nawiedza okręt – jej intencje i możliwości pozostają nieodkryte.

Superhuman terror incidents are on the rise, riots are breaking out everywhere like a plague spreading across the face of the world, and the unknown enemy still stalks the world. However, Pierson and Hale are determined to bring down the monster that caused this turmoil, no matter what it takes. With violence exploding on all sides, when given a clear shot at the source of the chaos, they determine to take their chance. Hale will throw every bit of power he has at the very source that granted him his strength, backed by a world thrown into chaos looking for someone, anyone, to blame.

At the helm of a commandeered freighter, Captain Steph Michaels has infiltrated the Free Star systems. Leading a captive crew, and posing as a privateer, he's on a mission to seize a precious resource from an enemy outpost. Backed by his Archangel Squadron, it's a smash-and-grab operation he can pull off in his sleep. Until it isn't.

Humanity has reached an uneasy truce with the Empire—but unless the allies bring the fight to the enemy, extinction is all but assured. In preparation for the inevitable next war, Commander Stephen Michaels is at the helm of the Archangel Squadron, and his orders are simple: go rogue. Disguised as mercenaries, Commander Michaels and the Archangels seek valuable intelligence on their imposing foe. Their mission takes them deep into uncharted territory, where they make inroads with the Empire, fiercely guarding their true identities and purpose.

The first shots of war have been fired, now it's a race against time to stop a headlong rush before someone fires the last shots. The alien probe that created dozens of superhuman weapons and unleashed them on Houston has a new testing site, the city of Hong Kong, and Alexander Hale has been asked to intervene. With no idea who, or how, the experiments on people are being done he slips into the city to try and find out what ever he can, but beyond the skyline of Hong Kong trouble is brewing.

The Scourwind family legacy brought the empire to the height of its power and prosperity and defended it against all enemies. Now one man's machinations aim to shift the balance of power - with violent and devastating consequences.

Two years after the initial invasion of Hayden's World, the newly reinforced Hayden Militia is in a state of stalemate with the remaining enemy forces, but neither side is content to leave things at that. The alien alliance has dispatched their varsity to clean up the resistance on Hayden while the USF has officially activated Task Force V, the latest and most advanced combat ships built by humans. In the end there are some things you decide in the skies, but some can be settled only in the mud.

The war that began on Hayden's World years ago has blossomed into a brawl across the stars, and yet that single and otherwise largely unimportant colony continues to be a central point in the conflagration. Human forces have pushed outward, now taking enemy worlds in response to the attacks on their own, but they don't have the numbers or the power to hold what they take. Now the alien Alliance shows a sliver of its true power, and the war for domination of the skies over Hayden burns brightly once more.

Newly minted Lieutenant Sorilla Aida has a new mission and new allies, gear, and support, as she is tasked with a job that could ensure that the human race stands a chance of reaching a technical parity with the mysterious alien alliance. Humans and SOLCOM are not the only ones making moves, however, and the alliance has brought up their varsity to end the little side war before it gets out of hand. Are they really interested in humanity or human worlds, however, or is something more at play?

When the Colony on Hayden's world went black, a team was sent to investigate. It was supposed to be a training mission: skip in, find out the Casimir Transmitter had gone dead, report back and wait for resupply from the Fleet. By the time the only surviving member of the team made landfall, it was spectacularly clear that this wasn't a training mission.
