== History ==
=== Initiation ===
In the wake of the Futureline war, Nexonia Prime found itself embroiled in chaos and devastation. The Communist Defence Pact (CDP), a formidable adversary, initiated this conflict, leaving a trail of destruction in its wake. Among those who stepped into this maelstrom was Leonard Griffin, now accustomed to his cybernetic body, rejoining the fight as a soldier of the Winslow Accord. This war witnessed both sides, the CDP and the Winslow Accord, embracing extensive cybernetics and Direct Neural Interface (DNI) technology, much of which was supplied by THETA, a powerful corporation with its own agenda.
As the conflict raged on, the Supreme Central Intelligence Agency (SCIA) launched a relentless manhunt for the turncoat Alfred Winnick, whose defection to the CDP had triggered the war. Gemma Kane, a dedicated SCIA agent, was dispatched to assist a hand-picked team led by Jerrick Taylor. This team included Mako Grayson, Henry Diaz, Carlos Maretti, and Tania Coutard. Jerrick Taylor, once the commander of Winslow Accord forces, now found himself assisting the SCIA in this manhunt. However, he ends up being killed by Winnick at the same time and his corpse is later recovered to undergo process into becoming a cyborg.
=== MRC-Masadan War ===
The Millennium River Coalition (MRC) sought control of the Millennium River, a precious resource in the overpopulated nation of Masada. Struggling to defend against the MRC's relentless advances, the Masadan Armed Forces turned to the Winslow Accord for aid. In a bid to safeguard their homeland and thwart the MRC's resource ambitions, the Accord intervened, intensifying the conflict further.
This tumultuous period saw key figures playing crucial roles: Jerrick Taylor, Mako Grayson, Tania Coutard, Keira Knight, Henry Diaz, Carlos Maretti, Leonard Griffin, and the formidable Dreadfang stood among the Accord's ranks. Gemma Kane represented the SCIA, while Ayisha and Jonal Kohlan led the CDP. Within the enigmatic THETA corporation, Corvus, an AI entity, Siegfried Thetamonn, and CONTRAKT operatives.
As the dust settled, Masada successfully repelled the MRC with the assistance of the Winslow Accord, securing their vital water source. The SCIA's relentless manhunt for Alfred Winnick bore fruit, but Jerrick paid a personal price by becoming a cyborg in the process. SCIA agent Gemma Kane remained steadfast in the war, determined to unveil the true extent of the conflict. Meanwhile, the CDP capitalized on launching attacks against the Accord's powerful nations, compelling the Winslow Accord to mobilize all its forces to repel these audacious invasions.
