But the story? The hordes of hell are unleashed, yet again??? Whats up with that recurring story in Sci Fi games? You'd think the gates of Hell were not spec'ed out very well, they seem to snap, unleashing hellish minions every few months now into every other Sci Fi game...
There's limits as to what you can do with the story for the type of game you are after - if you want to have the player going up against hordes of opponents with a reasonable semblance of a moral high ground, you need: Hordes from Hell, Evil Conquerers, Rampaging Mutants, or the like; there's a fairly sharply limited list of things to choose from for that style of game.

Also, with the number of games, books, and the like out there, EVERYTHING (or nearly so) has been done pretty much to death at some point or another.
