Story
Five years after the 'World Federation' was established strife and war are still rife. In order to keep the peace the Federation Armed Forces, part of the Federation Police, build fully armed, bipedal Mechs also known as 'Metal Heads'. The Metal Head's success causes an over militarization of the countries of the Federation.
A sudden and chaotic revolution led by terrorists, armed with their own fully armed Mechs breaks out and the terrorists take control of a whole country. The Player (in a Metal Head) is sent in with his team to liberate the country's capital.
You start in a small boarder town and work your way into to reach the capital.
