Introduction

The year was 2078, the world was in ruins, 8 years ago, in 2070 a mysterious virus spread across the world. It wasn't the kind that gave you the runs for a day or two, or stuffed you up. It was a deadly super-virus, of which the world had never seen. within the first year, over 80 percent of the worlds population had been wiped out..

No one knew where it came from, for all the survivors knew; it could be a man-made super weapon, probably developed by Russia, or China, based upon where the virus started. Something natural the world had never seen before, or alien in origin. That wasn't the worst of it, while 80 percent of the world perished, about 1 percent of those were horribly mutated, instead of truely dieing. One would laughably in better times call them zombies, but that is not what they were. They were grotesque mutated creatures, killing machines that attacked in swarms. Very fast, and very deadly. In a mis-guided attempt to control the infection in it's own country, China deployed nuclear weapons. China was one of the countries hit the hardest, nearly 3 billion people wiped out, alone. A third of the worlds population.

China had succeeded in their goal, but the overwhelming strain on the communist country's goverment caused it to collapse in to anarchy. Fewer than 10 million chinese, living or infected lived through the purification. It only got worse from there. No country was immune, even the island nations such as Japan, or Austrailia were devastated.

As well as the North American Union, which consisted of the United States, Canada, and Mexico. The push to unite in to a single political and cultural entity happened 30 years before, after a long and brutal civil war spilled over in to the southern United States. Mexico's goverment had been declared ineffective, and the United States took it by force, and stabalized the country. Negotiations with Canada had been on-going for years.

The NAU's technological superiority allowed them to hold out for longer than most, but the shear scale of the disaster wrecked havoc. Eventually the goverment collapsed and the military pulled back to key locations to protect them, leaving much of the central and western united states un-protected.

There were a few diffirent groups of units that made up the NAU military, or what was left of them. There was the PAW (Powered Armor Warriors), MSF (Marine Special Forces), and ARS (Alien Rogue Squadron). The PAW was the best of the best with the powered armor that the NAU had. They had ENG system and it was the only thing that could get the Power Armor online and running. Without the ENG the suits were just a large pile of scrap metal. The Marine Special forces were all that was left of the united states military. Every branch that was, is now nothing but a marine. They are the strongest, fastest, and most reliable unit the worlds military has to offer in the year 2078. Then there were the Alien Rouge Squadron. They were the best of the best that had allied themselves with earth. There wasn't very many of them, but they were there. They had some of the best technologies that money of the NAU could buy.
