Exocrisis Blue
Exocrisis Blue occurs sixteen years after the end of the Alien War.  By the end of the year long Alien War, many of the old governments of Earth had collapsed and a radically new set of nations had emerged.  In this new world man shares the Earth with the alien Blue Newts in an uneasy truce.  Nations, cities, and people have rebuilt their infrastructure and lives.  For a new generation, the Alien War is no longer immediate, it is something in the past.

At the General Automata Corporation Development Institute a new generation of HARMs has been created.  To pilot these more advanced machines, youthful HARM pilots are needed to maximize the potential between the new neural interfaces.  The military training facilities at the institute selects and trains the best of the best with experienced instructors and training techniques.  However, deep inside the institute is the much more secretive “AO Sensor Facility."  Events are in motion and the fate of the world hinges on the actions of a few.
