Front Mission series

Group Description

The Front Mission series revolves around warfare in a near to distant future. Armed conflicts are fought with a new type of the weapon, the so-called Wanzers. Originally developed by German arms manufacturers in the mid 21st century, Wanzers are widely used as walking tanks in the Front Mission universe. The name is derived from the German name "Wanderung-Panzer", or short Wanzer.

Most of the games in the series allow the player to build up a squad of Wanzer pilots and their vehicles, customize the Wanzers using a variety of parts and weapons and fight it out on a grid in turn-based tactical combat.
