Scientists working at the CERN facility in Switzerland were conducting superconductor research on the nature and composition of reality, when something went horribly wrong. The disastrous explosion that resulted, known to future generations as the Big Mistake, tore apart the boundaries between alternate universes.
Every reality poured into one another until all that remained was a fused crazy quilt of alternate histories, dinosaur worlds and robot empires. This new reality became known as Gamma Terra. Most societies just fell apart in the craziness, but three were monolithic enough that they persisted: The Empire of Ishtar, The Machine Civilization of Xi, and the Thu Marth shadow government run from an installation known as Area 52.
These nations met, tried to deal with each other, but relations quickly degenerated into open warfare. The ruins of this conflict, 150 years after the Big Mistake, are the setting for the game, in a devastated merged world dotted with relics of Omega Technology from these three extinct civilizations.
