DOOM

[ooc]Disclaimer: This thread is heavily based on the Doom 3 PC game. Some plot will be followed, some will be created by myself.[/ooc]

The Union Aerospace Corporation is the largest military hardware supplier to the nations of Earth. Ranging from small-arms to the latest gunships and spacecraft, they hold a virtual monopoly over all military hardware. Since becoming the principle military supplier, they have branched off in space travel, colonization of the other planets in the solar system, archeological research of ruins on Earth, and increasing their weapons technology.

One of their most public stations is the Mars Base. The 1st permanent base set up on the planet Mars, it is a hodgepodge of various levels of technology. There are even rumors floating about that ancient alien ruins have been found on Mars. In any case, lots of groundbreaking research has been done recently on the planet of Mars.
