The action has moved on 500 years and an uneasy cease-fire exists between the two vast war machines of TransGlobal Industries and the MegaCom Corporation. The final phase of the peace initiative is only hours away when an incident takes place, which throws this short-lived truce into complete disarray.
War is firmly back on the agenda.
The taking of territory is still paramount for victory as buildings can only be constructed on land owned by the player. But now, gamers must also think about which territory will best suit their strategy. Each sector on the map will feature a flag displaying a number from 1 to 5, the higher the number the quicker the game's resource, Xenonite, will be mined. The temptation may well be to secure those territories that will deliver the most Xenonite so forces can be quickly built up. But the game's 3D environments mean that some territories will be strategically better than others.
