Premise 2: The Eight Forces (Part I)
In the year 2200 of the RX era, there were eight major forces.
They are:
Holy Roman Empire of the Universe (HER)
Colonial Satellite Alliance (Covenant)
North American Rescue League (NARL)
Chang'an Cooperation Organization (CAS)
New Moscow Principality (TPM)
New European Union (NEU)
African Brotherhood (AB)
New Republic of Gran Colombia (RC)
Here's a brief look at the major forces.
【Cosmic Holy Roman Empire】
Among the independence movements of colonial satellites, the "Roman" colonial satellites, which were formerly part of the North American Federation, were the most affected.
In order to come out on top in the race to colonize the universe, a large number of economic problems have arisen within the North American Federation. When the colonial movement no longer needed their support, they began to transfer the economic problems within the Federation to the various colonial satellites. In the face of the demand for independence of the colonial satellites, the North American Federation repeatedly suppressed it militarily, which caused strong dissatisfaction among the colonial satellites such as "Rome".
In order to get out of control, an extreme voice emerged. RX 2197, former "Roma" colonization satellite corps commander Manfred . Adenauer declared himself a descendant of the royal family of the former "Holy Roman Empire". He changed his name to "Frederick I" (the same name as the famous Holy Roman Emperor "Redbeard") and openly promoted the idea of rebuilding the "Holy Roman Empire" and seeking independence by military means.
Naturally, the North American Confederation could not tolerate such an act, and they arrested Frederick I, but met with strong resistance from Frederick I's men and the citizens of "Rome". Soon the revolt evolved from protecting Frederick I to an independent rebellion. The next day, the "Holy Roman Empire of the Universe" was proclaimed stated, and independence was declared from the North American Confederation, with Frederick I becoming the first king.
A number of colonial moons that supported Frederick's ideas broke away from their suzerainty and joined the HER. Therefore, HER has been hostile to major powers since its inception.
Therefore, HER, which is not strong in national strength, began to vigorously develop the military and became a cosmic military country. In pursuit of a power that could counter the various forces, Frederick the Great asked the Empire's scientific researchers to create the "legendary" humanoid mechanical weapons that humans drove in space.
When the various forces learned of HER's plan, they all regarded it as a joke, because in the technology of the time, humanoid weapons were created as living targets. But in the genius Keanu. Under Dr. Lang's leadership, development difficulties were overcome one by one. HER first solved the power problem of man-made weapons, miniaturized the nuclear energy engine, and perfected it in combination with the "legendary" photonic energy technology; After Keanu. Dr. Lang also developed new composite materials for the armor and bones of humanoid weapons.
RX2In 199, HER fought with various forces in the sphere of influence of the "Carthage" colonial satellite, and the humanoid weapon performed a miraculous feat. After that, HER used its military power to continuously encroach on the cosmic forces and march towards Earth.
(Humanoid Weapon)
HER's first full-fledged man-made weapon model was the "Eagle Flyer".
The eagle's shape is characterized by its head shape that resembles a bird's head, and its all-black outer armor, which deliberately mimics the Roman lobster armor.
Its standard armament is thermal sabers, hand-held machine guns, and a small number of rockets.
On the basis of the "Eagle Fly", HER has also developed models such as "Spada" and "Turma".
【Star Alliance】
Full name Colonial Satellite Alliance.
After the "Colonial Satellite Independence" movement, most of the colonial satellites became independent city-states. In the face of pressure from the major powers, the colonial satellite city-states formed loose alliances, and after a few years, the colonial satellite alliances grew and absorbed other alliances.
As a union of city-states, the Covenant had relatively loose control, and in the early days it was more for the economic activities of the Earthsphere.
But after the birth of the HER, some colonial satellites that did not support its ideas felt threatened and joined the Star Alliance. The Covenant has also strengthened its military construction, and the legions have continued to grow.
The Covenant was defeated in the Battle of Carthage, and its strength and status were affected. Under the coercion and temptation of HER, many of the member countries turned to the opposing camp or regained their independence, and the Star Alliance gradually became a military group that could only defend the city-states it joined. Its control has also been further divided, with many colonies belonging to legions that are nominally deployed by the Alliance, but only defending their own colonies.
(Humanoid Weapon)
Star Alliance's humanoid weapon was developed relatively late, and its model code name was "Lifeguard". Because its standard model is orange.
There are still a lot of gaps between the early models of the "Lifeguard" and the "Eagle Fly". Its firearms and weapons can't even destroy fighter jets, and the driving mode is still two-person pilot.
Fortunately, there is no shortage of big consortium support from Star Alliance, and the current performance of "Lifeguard" is close to "Eagle Yang", and many high-performance derivative models have been born.
【North American Rescue Alliance】
As the original suzerainty of the "HER", HER regards the North American Federation as the number one enemy. Invaded and seized its colonial satellites, and after invading the Earth's sphere, listed the North American Federation as the main target.
In order to weaken its military power in the Earthsphere, HER disintegrated abandoned colonial satellites into fragments and smashed them along with small meteorites in eastern North America and its waters. The tsunami and falling debris devastated the prosperous eastern part of North America, and the Confederation of North America was dissolved in the ensuing HER invasion.
But North America did not sink there, and there were constant revolts in the occupied areas, and various guerrilla groups were a great headache for HER.
The western part of North America, which was not greatly affected, formed the "North American Rescue Alliance" to rescue the people of the cities occupied by HER and rebuild the North American Union.
(Humanoid Weapon)
Because of the huge blow, the North American Federation has made no achievements in the research and development of humanoid weapons. In order to confront HER's Eagle Fly, the North American rebels purchased a large number of obsolete aircraft and parts from other forces, and converted them into "fast militias".
The "fast militia" was characterized by its inexpensiveness and ease of assembly, and a partisan detachment of twenty people could be assembled in a rudimentary environment.
However, the disadvantage was that its reliability was too poor, and the guerrillas described its armor as "as brittle as paper" and had no advantage in armament.
However, the "fast militia" still contributed to the cause of North America against the HER, and there are still many cities and villages in central and eastern North America that the HER cannot fully control.
It is said that a high-performance model is being developed in western North America.
【Chang'an Cooperation Organization】
In the era of cosmic colonization, a multinational conference was held in Chang'an City. As a result of the meeting, the countries of East Asia, Southeast Asia, Central Asia, and South Asia established the "Chang'an Cooperation Organization" to coordinate and cooperate in the space colonization program.
The Chang'an Cooperation Organization joined the "Battle of Carthage", and after the defeat, some of its colonial satellites in the universe were occupied by HER. The southern part of South Asia and the eastern part of Southeast Asia within the geosphere are occupied by HER. There is currently a temporary truce between the two sides.
(Humanoid Weapon)
Unlike other forces, after learning that HER was developing humanoid weapons, the Chang'an Cooperation Organization also carried out research and development, so it had humanoid weapon technology earlier.
However, the military first positioned it as a "huge and flexible mobile artillery", so the "Tiger Ben" type body was manufactured, with a huge body, thick armor and lack of mechanical power, and the weapons and equipment were aimed at fortresses and armored groups, resulting in it being only equipped with huge caliber artillery and rockets, and lacking weapons against humanoid weapons.
Therefore, in the face of "Eagle Yang", "Tiger Ben" was too bulky and suffered a lot of losses. But the good thing is that the tiger itself can be further improved. Later models, although still slightly larger, have been armed with humanoid weapons and have more flexible mobility.
