The title of this page is currently based on conjecture. The subject does not have an official name. |
The Uprising refers to the conflict between the Allies and the rogue elements of the Empire of the Rising Sun as well as remnants of the Soviet Union following the end of the Third World War. Even though the Allies defeated both the Union and the Empire in the war, there were still rebels amongst the defeated nations who resisted the Allied occupation.
Meanwhile, European Union President Rupert Thornley is covertly conducting a series of sinister experiments with the aid of FutureTech, the military contractor that invented many of the technologies that gave the Allies the technical edge over its enemies during the war. While his end goal is unknown, he seems to be pushing for the completion of a powerful device. However, FutureTech has its own plans: to acquire the military technology of all three world powers for its own use.
Additionally, Yuriko Omega, the Imperial Psionic commando who was captured by the Allies at the end of the war, escaped custody and intends on returning to Japan to exact vengeance on the man who ruined her life, Dr. Shinji Shimada.

Tough Reform[]
After Emperor Yoshiro's death during the war and the Empire's subsequent surrender, Japan is now under the rule of Crown Prince Tatsu, who was forced to cooperate with the Allies. He is challenged by the remains of the Shogunate: Shinzo Nagama, Kenji Tenzai and Takara Sato. These rogue shoguns gathered their own forces loyal to them and prepare to drive out the Allied occupiers. The Allies, after being informed by Tatsu that Shinzo is currently residing in his ancestral home of the Shin Iga Province, sends a strike force under the command of the famous Allied Commander, intending to capture him with Cryocopters with assistance from Harbinger gunships. After destroying Shinzo's forces and freezing his residence, Shinzo escapes with a Sudden Transport disguised among many Tsunami Tanks. Nevertheless, the Allied Commander caught up with him and immobilized it, resulting in his capture.
With Shinzo out of the way, Kenji Tenzai came next. Kenji's base is heavily defended by modified Nanoswarm Hives, which the Allied Commander disabled relatively early before launching a full-on assault, aided by Cryo Legionnaires. Kenji eventually managed to unleash a Technology Inhibitor, which disabled not only the Allies' Chronosphere network but also all structures and vehicles under their Control, as well as his personal King Oni and a large contingent of Imperial Warriors. Reinforced by Special Agent Tanya and several Cryo Legionnaires, the Allied Commander took out the troops and Technology Inhibitor. With Kenji's King Oni frozen as well, he is taken into custody.
The last of his enemies was Takara Sato, who was defeated after a relatively short battle. The real battle took place seconds after her defeat when the self-crowned Emperor Tatsu thanks the Allied Commander for getting rid of his enemies in Japan. He believed this was the time to break free from Allied occupation and fulfill the true destiny of the Empire of the Rising Sun, fueled by assets captured from the defeated Shoguns.
After a long and hard battle against Tatsu's forces and his devastating Giga Fortresses, the Allied Commander won the day. Tatsu left the battlefield, deeply shocked and affected by his defeat. Lieutenant Eva thanks the Commander, telling him that his victory had prevented a total Uprising in Japan and the reunification of the Empire of the Rising Sun.
The Army of the Future[]
Despite the defeat of their leadership at Leningrad, the remnants of the Soviet military regrouped under the leadership of intelligence officer Dasha Fedorovich, who managed to evade Allied custody. She ordered the Soviet Commander to rescue captured Soviet scientists from a military base in Romania with aid from a small Soviet task force. While there, the scientists revealed that they were forced to develop an artilery vehicle for the Allies. However, Dasha realizes that the base was run by the FutureTech Corporation, not the Allies. FutureTech eventually becomes aware of their presence and goes to extreme ends in order to stop the scientists from escaping, but the task force still managed to defeat the Pacifier FAVs the scientists helped to create and escaped with them just as FutureTech reinforcements arrive.
Dasha locates another FutureTech facility in Russia itself, in the city of Murmansk, and orders the commander to destroy it. They discover that the facility is conducting experiments on Russian civilians, and an enraged Dasha sends in Kirov Airships to level the base. The Kirovs were destroyed by Cryo Legionnaires, forcing the Soviets to retreat briefly and hold off advancing FutureTech forces in a dilapidated Soviet base before they could rearm and strike back, destroying the facility in the ensuing assault.
The Soviet Underground traces the FutureTech reinforcements from to a base in the Yucatan which serves as FutureTech's military headquarters, unknown to even the Allies. A small strike force is sent and with some tactics, managed to set up shop on three nearby islands. The Commander intercepted a Prospector convoy carrying shipments of ore, and using the stolen resources, builds up a base quickly. Even though the FutureTech forces possess a Chronosphere and the experimental Harbinger gunship, the Soviets managed to push through and destroy the base. However, EU President Rupert Thornley, the mastermind of these incursions, contacts the commander and tells him that all of this will be for nothing once the "Sigma Project" is active.
Data collected from the Yucatan base suggests that the Sigma Harmonizer project that FutureTech has been working towards is capable of stopping time, at least for some objects. Knowing the threat it poses to them, the Soviets mount an attack on Sigma Island, where the device is located. The Sigma Harmonizer is not the only FutureTech project being developed there, however, as there are also numerous assembly plants for the FutureTank X-1 in addition to many more FutureTech assets that grant them aerial and naval superiority, forcing the Soviets to slowly advance, destroying all enemy infrastructure in their way, and the battle culminates with the Sigma Harmonizer's destruction. Already a controversial and expensive project itself, its loss in the Soviet offensive terminated Rupert Thornley's plans for world domination while irreversibly damaging FutureTech's reputation.
The Allied leadership thanked the Soviet Underground for their efforts, and pulled back their occupational forces within the Soviet Union as a gesture of goodwill in order to protect their own borders.
Wounded Wolf[]
The Tale of Yuriko[]
Aftermath[]
FutureTech's control over military forces was put to an end and now all FutureTech operations were closely watched the Allies, who are now trusting the Soviets once more.
Despite the PR nightmare following Thornley's presumed arrest, FutureTech still managed to acquire vital military assets from all three major powers by taking advantage of the chaotic post-war period, thanks to the efforts of the FutureTech Commander. Kelly Weaver expressed her gratitude to the Commander and offered to visit him to "review the terms in private".
With the Imperial Commander's successful capture of Vladivostok and himself manipulating the Allies into removing his opposition, Tatsu was prepared to restore the Empire and expel the Allies. Unfortunately for him, the plan fell apart in execution.
Having completely destroyed the Shiro Sanitarium, Yuriko Omega escapes and ponders her place in the world.
Will the Empire ever be able to regain its honor? What will the Soviet Union do with their new-found trust from the Allies? What is FutureTech Corporation's hidden agenda? What will Yuriko do next, now that she is free?
Time will tell... Sooner or later, time will tell...
