Beneath the Alps

A classified European military programme has opened the way to worlds beyond Earth. From an underground Alpine facility, you take responsibility for the people and decisions that shape what comes next.

The commander's role

The intended experience centres on running the programme: recruiting and preparing teams, organising expeditions, responding to reports, and balancing research, diplomacy and security. You command the effort rather than directly controlling soldiers in the field.

Information is part of the challenge. A report describes what was observed; it cannot tell you everything that is happening. Preparation and judgement matter when events develop beyond your immediate view.

A place and a period

The setting brings together an alternate European 1994, Alpine military engineering and the uneasy promise of exploration. The programme begins in a world of physical workspaces, reports and human responsibility.
