More than two centuries have passed since Earth-dwellers first came into contact with the Kesh-Ran. After the first armed clashes, massive mobilisation and colonisation enabled the Earth's Defence Forces to throw their sworn enemies out of the solar system. Only a handful of these nomadic aliens still roam the known regions of the universe.
Elsewhere, Earth's megacorporations rule with iron fists, fighting amongst themselves for more control. On Mars, which has fought for and won its independence from Earth, six of them are battling for supremacy. The ebb and flow of control between each of these corporations, and the selfishness and megalomania which drives them, has led to an unstable balance of power on the red planet. A balance which may well be upset by the unexpected arrival of Kesh-Ran factions in the Martian orbit. Now it's up to you...

Ambush on Mount Neptune
CyberScan 04 is the main television network in Olympia. Isolated in the Thor desert, it was surrounded by Terrestrial Robotic Units (TRU) following the disappearance of Governor Xicander... The manager of CyberScan 04 came to us for help. If we can get rid of the TRU's for him, he will agree to broadcast our propaganda. But we suspect that this betrayor has made similar proposals to our adversaries. It is therefore likely that you will have to deal with an enemy commando...
Your mission is to take control of the area and allow an Engineering Armoured Vehicle to enter the premises of CyberScan 04. You will be parachuted to a spot near your target. It is up to you to discover the enemy positions and to eliminate them if necessary. Good luck!
MISSION REMINDER:
Take an Engineering Armoured Vehicle to CyberScan 04.
Raid on Ostendia
Situated north of Olympia, the vast complex of Neo-Nuremberg supplies the entire area along the border with raw materials. A Kesh Rhan vessel has crashed on a neighboring mountain and its crew has taken control of the complex. The local authorities have tried in vain to get help from the central government, which is completely overloaded since the disappearance of Governor Xicander. So they have decided to look elsewhere for help...
And elsewhere is us! Our government and our industrialists have had their eyes on Neo-Nuremberg for a long time. Your mission is to take hold of the Headquarters on which the factories of Neo-Nuremberg rely. Its automatic defenses have been destroyed, but the Kesh Rhan rebels have robot troops on site...
You have 36 hours to take over the HQ. Past this deadline, our enemies will launch a massive air strike with little hope for us... If we succeed, our country will hold a beach-head in Olympia: a protectorate which will allow us to produce our weapons and robotic material on site!
Careful though ! If the HQ were to be destroyed, our bio-engineering units would be unable to restore it because of the complexity of its control system. If this happens, your mission will be a failure...
Alea Jacta Est
We need to seize the advantage over our enemies. We're going to try an incursion deep in the neutral zone. Your mission is to destroy all research centers built there by our neighbours. You may form temporary alliances with the enemy, but don't waste time...
Your primary goal is to stop their research efforts and give our scientific teams sufficient time to accomplish our own development plans.
MISSION REMINDER:
Destroy all the enemy's research centers.
Canyon Party
Thanks to your victory at Joryss, we now have a beach-head on the coast. High Command has just given us the green light to move on. Our best option is to go through the canyons situated north east of the Port. Observation satellites indicate important troop movements inside this canyon labyrinth... The enemy hopes to contain our offensive by using the ground to its advantage. Securing the zone is vital to us.
Your mission is to go through the canyons and take control of the HQ guarding the exit while the rest of our forces clean up the area. Attention: a last minute report tells us a few Kesh-Ran have allied with the enemy. It looks like they're from the Dead-Head Clan...
