While fighting 'mechas' may be the core of this game, it has a detailed background setting that means that the action doesn't stop after you've parked your WarMek in the garage for the evening!
Publisher's blurb: "The rulebook kicks off with a 'Welcome to Armageddon 2089' mini-chapter that is fast becoming a common feature in our rulebooks - basically, it tells you everything you need to know about the setting in three pages. Political events of the 21st Century have been spinning out of control and by 2089, the world faces the Armageddon War, a devastating conflict between the United States of America and the European Federation. In such a war, there can be no such thing as neutrality and every nation has been dragged into the conflict as the two superpowers fight for complete domination of the globe and beyond.
"In Armageddon 2089, players get to mess around with far more than just a character - they each have a WarMek, of course, but they also have to work together as a mercenary, corporate or military company. This is an additional level of character creation that all players will have to work together on."
