In a dystopic alternate history, the Mexican Revolution succeeds in transforming the country from dictatorship into republican democracy — and then an unexpected foreign Intervention arrives. The distinct factions at war do not waste time asking questions about who these newcomers are. They adapt the new technologies immediately and apply them to whatever advantage the situation offers: cybernetics, nanotechnology, and genetic modification become tools of warfare and civilian life simultaneously. Who wins this version of the revolution, and whether the fight is worth having, are the questions the game is built around.
