Hey, would love to apply, just gotta tailor one of my NS's for this. Couple questions though:

In general, what's the status of the orbitals? I'd like to have naval conflicts going on as well, so it would be sort of neat if the space around the planet was in a similar sort of ongoing conflict as the surface below, factions constantly vying to secure orbit and deploy reinforcements or execute tactical bombardments, etc.

Also a question about my faction in particular [@Sigma]; the one I'm thinking of using has a fairly effective system of immortality via reincarnation. When one of them dies, their mind returns to a hive mind and can be inserted into a new body to live again. Usually, the new bodies are designed to the individual's specifications, and soldiers are rotated away from conflict zones. But in this case, after such a long conflict they don't bother with the niceties, simply sticking the same minds into whatever bodies they have lying around. 
Tl;dr I'm envisioning an occupation force of increasingly traumatized/psychotic soldiers and officers inhabiting bodies they don't even recognize, fighting an endless conflict where they don't even have the luxury of dying. That sound alright?
