“Prepare your mechs and head to the dropship. We are moving out.”

Blurb

1500 years after Ancestors from Earth colonised planet SP714, countries have divided, risen, fallen, and been consumed by larger, stronger nations. Just off the coast of Xenos, the island of Rone has spent 12 long years fighting for independence against the nationalist Xenosi government.

In the hopes of ending the war once and for all, the Xenosi Prime Minister, Tazenik, purchases an experimental missile from Dex Industries, the notorious weapons corporation. This missile lays waste to Rone, wiping out all life and turning the landscape to fine grey dust.

Following this devastating event, Captain Sarra Sax and her Unit of specialised Mecha Pilots are the only soldiers capable of exploring this new Wasteland. Together, they search for survivors … and find answers.

The Dex Legacy continues with Wasteland.
