The space-time continuum being fought over by the Kryomek and Nexus Quoromate is very different from our own. Instead of a 'future earth', humans sprang from a cluster of three planets into a different universe. This universe is described and defined in the books that also provide the rules for simulating the fierce combat that occurs as the Kryomek attack.

Kryomek (Expanded 1st Edition)
The book that started it all has been updated and expanded. New quick reference charts (in color), additional weapons, new races, and optional rules have been added to the original set. Profusely illustrated with the hottest artwork, you'll enjoy the storyline and pictures. But don't stop there! The easy to understand, easy to play and very enjoyable rules take you planetside to face the Kryomek T onslaught. Can you stop the swarming mass of Helions and Warriors with the pitifully few Nexus Marines that the Quoromate sent? As the Warmaster of the KryomekT, can you over come the human's weaponry with the unfailing courage of your hivemates? One outcome is certain, only the victor will live at day's end. 136 pages, complete with plastic templates, record sheets, and counters.

The Kryomek

It is said that Man is made in the image of God and since this God made the Universe, Humanity feels confident that it has a right to rule it.   But there are other Gods, dark Gods,

Gods in whose terrible image other creatures are made -
and these too might believe that they are destined to rule...

Unknown just 12 years ago, now every human shudders when they hear the name. Fierce, merciless, in numbers beyond count, they continue to assault Nexus space-time. Where humans create machines to serve them, Kryomek create living organisms. They have harnessed the power to create and twist life to suit their evil purposes. All Kryomek serve the hive. Similar to less deadly hive insects, the Kryomek consist of many specialized types, each optimized for a single function. The primary battlefield types are listed below, but a complete listing would be impossible. There are rumors of other, larger, more deadly Kryomek. They remain rumors because no humans who have seen them have survived to describe what they have seen. -Jardus Manturikan, lecture to officers of the NTFA 6.12.3503
