**INCOMING BROADCAST**
For 50 years, Synergy Corporation has secured our prosperous nation and saved us from tyranny. Today, under the landmark Preservation Statute, the art of modern warfare has changed for the better. Our compliant mechanical mission systems contain our threats at no risk to human life.
Our 4th generation Mecha systems have now been accepted into service by your government. 10,000 new units will be delivered over 5 years under a 50 billion dollar contract, creating thousands of jobs at the newly expanded Synergy Central Plant.
We have sworn to defend our way of life, and will do everything in our technological power to defeat anyone standing in the way of progress and peace.
Reverence to Synergy Corp and glory to our pilots.
**END BROADCAST**
The only hope against the Scrapper’s endless onslaught has always been Synergy Corp. They have defended the country for years, and managed to convince the Scrappers to agree to the Preservation Statute, ensuring that neither side kills the other. Conflicts are carried out using Mecha, with each Synergy Mecha Captain being assigned an RK System, an Automated Replicant Knowledge System that helps copilot their Mecha and ensure the statute is maintained.
Assume the role of Chimera, a Mecha Captain of Synergy Corp, as they fight in this endless war. They have never truly believed in the statute, trusting neither the Scrappers nor Synergy Corp. They believe the only way to end the war is to break the statute and wipe out the Scrappers once and for all. Chimera’s RK System “Ki”, who is optimistic and hopeful about the world, disagrees with their outlook, and tries to convince them to see value in the statute.
When Chimera's Mecha Squadron is deployed on a mission to defend the Synergy Central Plant from an invading Scrapper force, the status quo unexpectedly changes, and the fate of the conflict is put in Chimera’s hands.
