A mighty empire that is crumbling with each passing day. But its shards are ready to defend what is left.” The socialist Communes that overrun their opponents with agile wheeled armoured vehicles of the ‘Force Rapide’ and masses of ‘Volontaires’ and ‘Conscrits’. “The kingdoms of western Europe have fallen under the force of the people’s anger and the Communes are rising in their place. The revolution is far from over.” In 1704, the world was consumed by an unprecedented inferno. Countless states, empires and rulers fell victim to the beginning of the end of the world. But with the fire came Cinium. Energetic fragments of the inferno, as white as angel feathers and incredibly powerful. It was to lay the future for all that was to come. 200 years later, old and new empires have risen from the remnants of the past. They find themselves in a world dominated by industry and ash. More and more land is being turned into lifeless deserts by the storms of embers and fire, while the sky is falling under a grey veil. Cinium drives the machinery of vital industry, in peace and in war. Powerful steam engines drive tanks and behemoths across the battlefields to defend or conquer the dwindling habitat.
