General story:
In the late 21st century, the United States government collapses from exploding debt, bureaucratic incompetence, internal divisions, ineptitude in the face of threats, and rampant disease. This has led to a sudden increase in global instability as old rivalries and grievances were unbounded and returned to the forefront. Which side will emerge victorious? That is up to you.
Faction #1: Werewolves
Combat style: Unconventional (Guerilla)
Tactical Focus: Flexibility
Tactical Strengths: Unrivaled AT
Tactical Weakness: Weak armor (No armor HQ)
Special Weapons: “Double Tap” and “Triple Tap” AT Weapons
After the emergence of chaos on American soil, the Werewolves were one of several competing militias that merged on American soil. After the subsequent U.R.E. occupation and its endeavor to restore order in the former United States by force, the Werewolves remain the greatest single threat that can deter U.R.E .
Faction #2: United Republic
Combat style: Conventional
Tactical Focus: Precision Attack
Tactical Strengths: Exceptional air power, Powerful armor
Tactical Weakness: Limited Artillery
Special Weapons: Lasers
Successor state to US.
After the collapse of the US government, European NATO, at the behest of the U.N. Security Council, occupied North America to restore order. Absorbing the remnants of the US military and its arsenal, the United Republic has begun to deploy predominately American units and armor.
Faction #3: Russia
Combat style: Conventional
Tactical Focus: Defense
Tactical Strengths: Exceptional armor, powerful air power

Combat style: Guerilla/Unconventional
Tactical Focus: Speed
Tactical Strengths: Exceptional vehicles

Without a powerful local government to curtail them, many factions of criminals and anarchists emerged in the western hemisphere.

Tactical Focus: Range
Tactical Strengths: Exceptional artillery
Tactical Weakness: Weak economy

In response to the disease of banditry spreading across the world in the wake of global chaos, the nations of Africa came together to jointly resist threats to their continent’s security. Allying itself to its northern neighbor, U.R.E., the Confederacy has gained limited access to European equipment and firepower. However, this alliance has also made the Confederacy a target of Russia and its allies.
