Aside from the Fair Folk, who briefly visited the earth many centuries ago and left legends that later became fairy stories, there is the Tar'avi - a species of insectoid tyrants that are bent on conquering the galaxy for their own inscrutable means. Earth and her colonies are next on the Tar'avi menu, and all hope seems lost. But an ancient Fair Folk prophecy claims that from this seemingly insignificant planet will spring the death of the Tar'avi empire. Be a manamech pilot, driving your fifty-foot tall suit of armor through alien cityscapes, striking down Tar'avi battle drones with your flaming sword and Vulcan Mk.
