Muv Luv Alternative: Desparation

DamascusActual

Immerse yourself in mankind's struggle against the BETA, piloting large mechs to even the odds.

Author's Note: This is meant to be (hopefully) an entry point to the Muv Luv franchise, though with a few homebrew touches and additions from semi-relevant media. Experience an alternate timeline of Earth, where the Cold War never ended and an overwhelming extraterrestrial threat has Humanity on it's back foot. Less than 3 billion souls remain to hold the desparate resistance. Can you make a difference? There is a template character for you to build your own, for the sake of story and consistency, you must assign a start location for this template to any starting "Base". Update: - Minor tweaks to the map, addition of Iceland, Arabian Peninsula, and UK (as declared areas) - New factions - New factions assigned to relevant locations. NEEDS: - Additional characters - Faction assignment for character roster - Timeline and plot lore (pending F&F lore tool update) *CONFIRMED COMING SOON

Description

Across the Spanish channel from Gibraltar, there is a defense line setup in the ruins of Ceuta, Morocco. A grand display of tanks, artillery, and entrenched shore positions, these forces are comprised of both African Union troops and remnants of the Spanish military not folded into UN ranks. There are only a handful of TSF squadrons here, but given its close proximity to the European mainland, shore based artillery can intercept some of the BETA from even across the channel. An intricate web of undersea mines are laced throughout the channel as well, further thinning any incoming BETA hordes. Morale often fluctuates here, as supplies are hard to come by and the sand makes maintenance a nightmare. Unofficially, the African Union periodically contracts paramilitary forces to reinforce this area, and to conduct raids across the channel.
