The game takes place in a fictional 27th century in which human civilization has expanded beyond Earth for 500 years. Many worlds have been colonized under the rule of Terra Central Government (TCG). Seated on Earth, the government suppresses uprisings with military force.
The story starts in an in medias res manner, players begin their first mission as a war breaks out between TCG and ADAN Freedom Alliance. The events leading to the war are told via frequent flashback sequences; four star-systems had banded together as the ADAN Alliance, engaging in politics to seek independence from the TCG. The central government's response was to destroy the terraforming facilities of an alliance planet, Acheron, killing many inhabitants and causing the world to become inhospitable. The TCG covered up how the planet was destroyed, but its act has precipitated the war.
