For millennia, humanity’s story was one of energy scarcity. In the middle of the 22nd century, the Dyson Swarm, a vast orbital solar array surrounding the sun to harness its limitless energy, changed everything. Its completion ushered in a Golden Age of peace and prosperity. Under the new Solar Republic, Earth thrived, Mars became a jewel of science and industry, and colony ships pushed outward to distant stars. For 125 years, mankind flourished, sated at last but dependent…

Then the sun itself betrayed us. In 2299, unforeseen and catastrophic solar storms wrecked the Dyson Swarm. Most of the solar system plunged into darkness. In the following years that came to be known as the Rift, billions perished. Entire nations collapsed. The Solar Republic, now desperate and ailing, withered across nine decades. With energy suddenly finite again, Mars’s corporate titans saw no more reason to bow to dying powers, and didn’t.

It is now 2387, and mankind is at war. Earth’s remnant governments, Martian corporate titans, and a scattered constellation of independent factions all struggle for survival and vie for dominance of resources. On every planet and every front, battles are decided by HE-Vs: towering, modular combat walkers bristling with the most lethal weapons ever devised. Fortune and power await those bold enough to claim them. Your actions will decide the victors.
