The Abzalan Combine (Outer Space humans faction) has successfully retrofitted Invader tech into superior weaponry, that they keep quite jealously to themselves. However they are willing to fight for the future of mankind, if mankind can write down enough zeroes on the bill.
My first entry. This is for the Space humans, as it is for the beginning of their journey just as they leave Earth.
Edit: Changed card ability Vanishing to Fading. This is to prevent the card from being summoned with 0 counters and becoming an indefinite enchantment.
Trevor Klenn was born in Pantheon, capital city of Mars, fully terraformed in this dark future. Being the first target of the earliest alien assaults, the Red Planet has developped a prominent militaristic tradition, in which Trevor grew, learning the art of war from a young age. Recruited in the Abzalan Combine for his uncanny talents, he was soon found out to be a latent psychich. Combining his newfound abilities and his combat expertise, he turned ou to be the most notorious infiltrator, spy and assassin in the system. His fame made, he left the Combine to work for his own account, earning him the top spot of the Abzalan's bounty list.
For the invading aliens, idea from Ender's Game. I wanted it to be black/green, and I wanted to represent the second phase differently than the first, but there was sadly not enough space, so this is what I have. https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/the-hive-queen
Yesss!!! The Invading "UFO"/vehicle ship! @ThyMaster, really nice vehicle, and it covers the make an artifact with color challenge I saw on another contest elsewhere (can't remember off the top of my head where it was at unfortunately, I'll let you know unless you already know).
@SorinJace Two thing I had a colored artifact contest yesterday so that might be what your thinking about and also what do you thing about my stuff so far?
@pjbear2005 creative as hell, nice work and keep it up please thank you! Don't forget to say what the cards category is when you submit the cards though please thanks
@ThyMaster I like it. What would you call the new mana? and this could be the missing 6th color, purple? or well technically it could be 7th because I think they consider colorless as the 6th color (which sounds like it makes no sense when your telling people that outside the world of mtg that have no clue about the game)
1st, on the side of the alien invaders. Their goal is destruction. The language at the bottom is Klingon (as there is an actual dictionary I can use to make flavor text). It reads as "'All humans will die' - High Warleader"
The next three are back to the space human Frontier Fleet mentioned in my first entry, Last Glimpse of Home. First is Aurias, the leader of Operation Frontier. His card gives a huge buff to humans, but with a cumulative upkeep cost.
The reason for this cost is to ensure he eventually dies (as in the story in my head, he does indeed die before finding a new home for the fleet). Once dead however, his legacy and vision is carried on by his daughter, Aelin. She doesn't provide the same buff, as she's not the leader he was, but she can greatly impact the game by making it harder for opponents to use noncreature cards.
Lastly, is the Frontier Fleet itself. This fleet provides a big help to mana generation (though later in the game), which was thematically done as it is the base of operations for the intrepid explorers and hopeful colonists. Furthermore, it can be crewed to be an amazing defensive option, or to provide mid-range flying attack. This is not a war fleet, rather a colony fleet with some escorts.
And... another. This time for the Earth Humans. Though they have ships, Earth's defense is heavily reliant on O.R.D.S. Something that may, or may not, protect it from direct invasion.
Here's a little story that based from some of the entrants so far:
Kansarka, the Devourer, or Kansarka, the Consumer of Worlds, was currently brooding in a dimly light room. Said room had a dark theme and it was also decorated with spiky and extraterrestial-ish decorations, skulls were included. Alien skulls, beast skulls, human skulls, whatever kind of skulls those things were. And from the large, thick glass window of the room, the scenery of a beautiful starry night sky could be seen in contrast of the dark atmosphere of the room.
A demon was always brooding, and scheming. An universal rule that couldn't be denied.
From the shadows, another armored figure was slowly walking to approach him. The figure was a male Forerunner, an ancient race who believed that all things in the universe belonged to them alone. An arrogant belief for such an advanced race. And due to that belief, and a war with a certain "parasite" race, their numbers had been dwindled to only a numbers that barely enough to fill a standard-sized city. The original Forerunners, at least.
"Hello, Kansarka." Said the standing figure, his hands were folded, his expression cold.
"Well, well, well, how's it going, Warmonger?" He smiled ever so slightly, if a demon could smile of course.
"Stop with all the pleasantries. There are some problems that have to be addressed. First of all, your puppet has betrayed you. Now he's currently residing along with those humans and called himself as 'Leader of the Free' or something along like that." Informed the person with a firm tone. The 'Warmonger' just a moniker to hide his true name.
"Tch. Just as I expected from an insect like him." Scoffed the currently sitting demon.
"There's also a problem with the mobilization of the human's fleet, lead by the Admiral Aurias himself, that slowly come to our territories. In fact, they're just looking for new homeworlds."
"There are already plans for such situations. How's about the invasion then?" Asked the demon with a typical voice of a demon could emit from their mouths.
"We'll use the 'dragon' due to some problems with the human resistance and their allies. There's also a human soldier individual named 'Trevor Klenn' who has been a thorn at our side. I was also informed that he's also a psychic too."
"An extraordinary soldier with an extraordinary power? How typical for them." The demon chuckled. "What about the Banes?"
"Those ships are still operating, so long not a single one is destroyed, albeit too slow to do much damage. You know that those humans could breed like those Earth's cattle and doing many things in just short amount of time."
"I see." The demon only placed his rather sharp claws in front of his face in a thinking position.
"So, do I have the permission to use the 'dragon'?" Asked the anonymous Forerunner.
"Permission granted. But return it swiftly to my territory after you finished with it. And don't let it get destroyed. You know the consequences for you if that happens." Threatened the demon. "Oh, and don't forget to tell Dracor to stop with his petty slavery for just once and tell him to come to me. A good 'business partner' like him is hard to find nowadays... Tell him that he'll get new, much better toys if he come to me."
The anonymous Forerunner just steeled his expression and nodded. Then he returned to slowly walk in the shadows towards the automatic main door.
The sitting demon then returned for being deep in thought again.
'Xanther, if I see your face again, I'll personally come to you and rip it and shove it down to your stomach for your insolence.' Pondered the demon in a thinking position, for he and the notorious leader of human's alliance had quite an unpleasant history for trying to annihilate each other.

and the other one is for EARTH HUMANS

Here is something that could be controlled by either alien team or the outer space humans

Outer Space Human, Invader Alien
Outer Space Human
This is completely just random ideas, and nobody has to use or acknowledge this at all.
A new type of mana, for spells shaped in space. Because there is no way to make a symbol for this, I am using the phyrexian symbol in place of it.
