Features
Battles that can take a turn for the worst or better depending on your skill and ability to command

Several different scenarios for victory

Short, but hopefully believable and memorable story

Since it will be 10 scenes in game, and this demo covers the first, a little over 10%, as the next scene is also there, but not finished, and not playable

Known Issues
The evade command does not work, and tells you in the description

In practice, a sort of Advance Wars with Mechs and Robots?
The story seem quite interesting. I'll definitely give it a quick try
It's difficult to find some good sci-fi game made with a RPG maker program...

Just a quick comment on the screenshots. In my opinion you should work on the units' thumbnails.
Seeing them cut isn't a good effect... you could try editing some Advance Wars or Front Mission unit to it the chessboard.
Go to Spriters Resources and give a look at these sheets:

The Spriters Resources - Front Mission Sprites

The Spriters Resources - Front Mission 2 Sprites

Here you can find some good robot miniatures to display on map instead of unit symbols.
