It is the 187th year of the Standard Era. Earth and its colonies are in a state of reconstruction, having lost much in the wars against the Divine Crusaders paramilitary force and in the L5 Campaign that defended humanity from the aliens known as the Aerogaters. In the aftermath of the suffering of only six months prior, the once-independent United Colonies were folded into the Federal Government, with its former leader, Brian Midcrid, elected as the new President.

As the individual who once revealed to the world the existence of extraterrestrials that threatened mankind, a disclosure that would later be known as the "Tokyo Manifest", President Midcrid has taken steps to rebuild and rearm the Federation, beginning the "Aegis Project", a plan to refortify Earth by developing and mass-producing humanoid mechs to defend against attack. Asking for solidarity among all humanity, his dream is a world that shall be united in the face of any invasion.

However, trouble lurks in the shadows.

The remnants of the Divine Crusaders still seek to overthrow the Federal Government, and with the help of sympathetic individuals within the administration and military, scheme to establish a new military state in the ashes of the old regime. Mysterious machines with incredible technology have been seen all over planet Earth, their appearance unidentified and purpose unknown. Entities befitting those in storybooks roam in the darkness, possibly hoping to plunge humankind into chaos once more.

It is a new, unbelievable world.

For that reason, certain individuals within the Federation pushed for a specialised task force to investigate these anomalies, hoping to discover the truth of the strange incidents and resolve them before they can threaten the Earth.

This was the birth of the team known as UTX, a squad within the Federation military equipped with experimental tools and weapons for their Personal Trooper mechs, with a mandate to investigate and deal with any dangerous technology they find.

Unofficially, however, their true purpose is far more than that.

To protect humanity, UTX will delve into the darkness to shine light on all that is unknown.

Yeah, that's a long spiel that gives some quick background on what this is. So, it's a Super Robot Wars OG RPG, but you don't need to have played SRW to get an idea of what the premise is. You play as a member of a special investigative team with giant robots that's tasked to deal with strange anomalies, military bases that shouldn't exist, secret projects without any record, remnants of alien influence, foreign incursions, and just generally the weird stuff that happens in a mecha world.

That's why you've been equipped with the weird. So you can fight the weird.

Aiming for a general investigative RPG that sometimes involves giant robot fights.

Seeing how many people are up for this.
