Prologue
They called this era the Age of Mechs.
It was not as if the introduction of mechs replaced other weapons of war. In the galactic war against the alien races that sought to wipe out humanity, warships and weapons of mass destruction still played an essential role.
Yet a nuclear bomb was too destructive if used against humans. Alien races could easily pick up a bargain if humanity constantly weakened themselves to settle internal grudges.
These pointless wars would only end when humanity united all of its separate fiefs. Many visionaries have attempted to do so, and succeeded, up to a point.
Peace never lasted.
The human race had an inborn tendency to fall apart. The grand enterprise of unity failed time and time again.
So people separated, still loosely allied by their common ancestral heritage, but with nothing else in common. Wars continued, but a complex web of treaties limited the destruction of essential war materiel. The human race stood a better chance of resisting alien incursions once it stopped destroying their own settlements and warships.
“It’s all fine and dandy to conquer your neighbor’s planet. At the very least, don’t bring out the big guns and please leave the expensive stuff in space intact.”
Not the best solution, but somehow humanity muddled through.
With the stagnation of naval battles, ground warfare took on new significance. Infantry, tanks and artillery enjoyed a resurgence of popularity as the fractious human race fought over their own territory.
Naturally, any invaders didn’t have it easy. Forced to operate on enemy soil, the conflicts often devolved into wars of attrition.
Even if the invaders painstakingly triumphed over their enemies, was it worth the effort? They would find out in dismay that they lost more money from their army than what they gained in territory.
Most of the warmongers realized that waging war was a money-losing business.
