STANDARD CAMPAIGN

War Metal: Tyrant takes place on the planet Acheron, where there is currently a war going on between the Empire and the Raiders. You are an Imperial commander following Lord Halcyon, the military leader of the Empire. The game starts out with you defending the Spire, a base in Ashrock, from the invading Raiders led by Typhon Vex. After driving him off you pursue him, and are assisted by Katana, who acts as your aide. However, things are complicated when the Bloodthirsty begin to attack, which has not happened for years.

Lord Halcyon reveals that Typhon is apparently attempting to get his hands on the Prometheus, an extremely powerful artifact that provides energy to half of Acheron. You then catch up to Typhon, but he tells you that you are too late to stop him from getting the Prometheus, and also implies that the Empire is responsible for creating the Bloodthirsty.

Typhon escapes to the Wasteland in the west, but you are unable to pursue him immediately, since you are attacked by more Bloodthirsty which have overrun the Swamps of Andar. Lord Halcyon orders you to pursue Typhon immediately, but Katana refuses to abandon people who are in need of help, and decides to head to the Swamps to search for survivors. Therefore, Lord Halcyon heads to the Wasteland while you and Katana strike at the Bloodthirsty.

In the Swamps of Andar, you discover survivors led by commander Octane. He tells you that things have become even more complicated as the Xeno faction known as the Enclave have begun to invade the area as well. He then heads west to join up with Lord Halcyon and warn him of the new development. You and Katana head toward the main Bloodthirsty nest, which for some reason, was formerly an Imperial base. Your forces then destroy the Brood Mother at the nest. With the Brood Mother dead, the Bloodthirsty infestation should presumably dissolve with time. With that done, you finally head west towards Lord Halcyon’s forces.

ENCLAVE CAMPAIGN

You arrive in the Red Sands desert, where you again meet Octane. He fills you in on the situation: things are now a total clusterfuck, with the Imperials, Raiders and the Enclave all fighting each other. Your primary mission then becomes to figure out the reason for the Xeno invasion, so you head toward a communications relay under Raider control to intercept their communications.

Upon decoding the communications, you discover that Vyander, the Enclave commander, is heading towards the Wasteland so that he can activated the Nexus there in order to open a portal that allows the Enclave to invade Acheron en masse. You pursue Vyander westward, and help to extricate Lord Halcyon’s forces which have become trapped between Typhon and the Enclave.

You first destroy the Xeno Mothership, preventing it from bombarding the area. With that threat taken care of for the moment you head towards the Nexus, where Typhon has surrounded Lord Halcyon’s line of defense. After destroying the Raider main guard, Typhon tells you that you haven’t successfully foiled his plans yet, and that he will use the Prometheus to destroy the Nexus…which will also destroy Acheron.

Fortunately, however, you defeat the remainder of Typhon’s forces before he can do so. Typhon then retreats to Kytos, the Raider homeland. For now, all the threats to the Empire have been eliminated.

NEXUS CAMPAIGN

You follow Lord Halcyon as a full-on invasion of Kytos is launched, in order to capture Typhon and bring him to justice. The initial landing is at the Kor Encampment, a settlement of the Raiders. Katana tells everyone to avoid attacking the civilians, but Lord Halcyon overrules her, instead ordering you to eliminate the local militia and search the villages for weapons, since they are supporters of Typhon.

Although Typhon is getting away, Lord Halcyon orders you to destroy all the raider settlements. Katana objects as the civilians are not at war with the Empire, and the mission is to capture Typhon, not to kill innocent people. Lord Halcyon, however, insists that as long as the Raiders exist as a people the Empire will not be safe, and that they must be crushed. Unwilling to stand by while a genocide is carried out, you and Katana defect in order to protect the civilians from Lord Halcyon’s forces.

You contact Yurich, the leader of the local military. He is unwilling to trust you initially, but accepts that you are not enemies after you successfully defend the encampment from the Imperial forces. He tells you that not all of the Raiders support Typhon Vex, but that they allow him to remain in power due to his leadership skills and his vision for the future of the Raiders. Yurich himself, however, only wishes for the war to end. Since the only way Lord Halcyon will stand down is if Typhon is captured, Yurich tells you he is heading to the Blightlands in the north, and that he will assist you if will head to peace.

You head north into Sufuris, which has been overrun by the Bloodthirsty from the Blightlands. During your battles here, you discover that Typhon is searching for some other ancient power source after his previous attempts were foiled. You then head into the Odeus Mines as that is the only way to reach the Blightlands. In the mines however, you discover the Enclave has been carrying out a mining operation for Neocyte, a powerful energy source which powers the Enclave’s technology. In other words, they’re planning something.

You finally break out of the mines and reach the Blightlands, the original home of the Bloodthirsty. Here, you fight through the endless Bloodthirsty hordes as well as Halcyon’s Imperial forces. You then discover that there is in fact a second Nexus located here. Typhon intends to activate this Nexus in order to gain enough power to destroy the Empire, regardless of the risk it holds. The last time a Nexus was activated during the storyline of the original War Metal game, it completely destroyed the Asphodel region…which is now called the Wasteland. If the Nexus is successfully activated without destroying everything, however, it will be able to power the entire continent and allow Typhon’s power to match the Empire’s.

You finally catch up with Typhon, but it is too late. The countdown has already been activated, and the Nexus opens, engulfing Kytos in a firestorm and unleashing the power that will enable Typhon to destroy the Empire once and for all.

BLIGHT CAMPAIGN

You and Katana wake up in Tartarus, a twisted dimension filled with Bloodthirsty creatures unlike any you have seen. The Nexus warped you here when it activated, but sent Yurich somewhere else. Due to the poisonous atmosphere your body is beginning to decay, which is attracting the Bloodthirsty to your position.

After defeating the Bloodthirsty, you encounter a group of Imperial soldiers led by Lucina. Katana comments on how this means Lord Halcyon is sending his own subordinates into almost certain death. Lucina then attacks you, believing you to be aiding Typhon. After defeating her forces, you manage to salvage the suits the Imperial soldiers were wearing, which protects you from the atmosphere.

You fight through some more huge swarms of Bloodthirsty, delving deeper into Tartarus. You find Typhon along with his loyal subordinate Barracus, who holds you off while Typhon continues searching for some way to unlock more power from Tartarus. This, combined with the Bloodthirsty which have developed entirely new abilities due to Tartarus’ influence, hinder you as you attempt to follow Typhon.

The Bloodthirsty begin to surround you forcing you to continue on. You then arrive in the Tartarus Breeding Pits, where you have another confrontation with Lucina’s forces. In the Breeding Pits, you begin detecting some strange energy emanating from the depths. This is revealed to be the Tartarus Core, which Typhon intends to absorb the power from. Right before you can head into the Core however, Lucina battles you for one final time.

Katana then asks Lucina why she is still following Halcyon’s orders when he has become just as bad as Typhon, and says that regardless of the respective sides they are on, that the first priority should be to stop Typhon. Lucina grudgingly agrees to a temporary truce with you, but is still unwilling to work with you. Therefore, you split into two groups to take out Typhon in a two-pronged attack. You manage to fight through the hordes of Bloodthirsty and reach Typhon, but Lucina is pinned down, and she tells you to do whatever it takes to stop Typhon.

Katana states that it’s odd the Bloodthirsty are ignoring Typhon since absorbing the core’s energy may destroy them all. They are, however, still attempting to stop you. You arrive at the core after defeating the last of the Bloodthirsty, where Typhon is being engulfed by the glow emitted from it. Katana orders everyone to attack at once in order to stop him, but Typhon says that you are, once again, too late. The light then engulfs him along with all of you, ending things on a cliffhanger.
