History[]
Eight Luck is a space development company headquartered in the corporate-oriented country Enigma. It boasts the second largest share in the world after Jin-Sei Co., Ltd. At one point, it was the world's largest space development-related company, but it had to be scaled down once due to the rapid growth of Jin-Sei Co., Ltd. However, after that, they succeeded in rebuilding the entire company to its current position by securing a forcible sales policy and a low-priced labor force. There are many inquiries regarding satellite launches, etc., as they can undertake work at a lower price than Jin-Sei Co., Ltd., including the launch of supplies in orbit.
After some years of relative peaceful competition, the companies started attacking each other over the mining areas. Eight Luck successfully took over various smaller companies, intending on conquering Mars completely so as to establish a monopoly on the minerals outsourcing. In response to Eight Luck's attacks, Jin-Sei formed an alliance with the Japanese Defense Force, creating a space fighter program called Scarlet Lotus Team (SOQ), which utilized a new laser technology named Non-blind spot All-range Laser System (NALS). Hiring the best pilots and mercenaries, the SOQ are sent with the mission to protect Jin-Sei's areas and eliminate Eight Luck's war machines.
