Characters
Here are the characters in this game:
Mikhail · Alexandrovich Schwarov is a wanzer pilot of the Rutenian Army’s 2nd mechanized platoon. Although he lacks experience, his ability as a pilot is highly praised. On the other hand, he is known for minor violations of discipline, and he is considered a bit of a problem child by his officers.
During the attack by the Garamonian army, he faces the main enemy force and his platoon is annihilated, alongside his own wanzer. While he barely escapes the wreck, he finds himself isolated, with no allies to rely on.
Olga Sergeevna Kalinina is a police officer in Novoslava. She was once a wanzer pilot in Garamonia, but she lost her only daughter during an armed confrontation between the army and the people of the NGFP. As a consequence, she left the army.
After obtaining Rutenian citizienship, she became a police officer in Novoslava. Although her ability as a cop is excellent, and she struggles to improve the security of the city, her independent action made her stand out. She is investigating frequent trafficking cases.
Leonid Fedorovich Ostermann is a high-ranking member of the Novoslava liberation movement NGFP. Originally, he was a mercenary, and he was hired when the movement intensified its armed resistance. While he worked for the organization, he sympathized with the ideas it represented and became a core member with the task of supervising military armed operations.
When the leader of the group is assassinated, he is framed as the culprit and sentenced to death. He denied the allegations, and there was no motive, but the existence of multiple witnesses decided his sentence. His public execution was actually faked, and he was instead imprisoned. That’s when the war reaches Novoslava. He knows nothing of the circumstances behind the assassination, nor why he was kept alive.
Mechanics
Players will be able to take control of all three characters in the game. The story will start when they are left alone behind enemy lines in different situations. They will have to look for supplies and ammunition since they are limited and it will be impossible fight against a large number of enemies in a head-on attack. Tactics will be an important factor in this game, which will give them victory if done right.
Infiltration, crafting, and other options can be chosen by the players to avoid head-on attacks. There are also other factors that could depend on their choice as the three characters find the truth about the Rutenian invasion and the conspiracies behind it.
