Here is a bit of background on the old Starsiege...

The human race has colonized mars and the Earth's Moon. A great rebellion against the imperials has started lead by Harabec. The uprise was ordered to be suppressed by the imperial leader Caanon, Harabec's brother. During the rebellion, Cybrids, humanly dubbed "Glitches," have come to annihalate the human race, rebels and imperials alike. Your only chance to save humanity is to set aside differences and join forces and stop the Cybrids. The Cybrid's leader, Prometheus, will not let this happen. You travel across the Moon, Mars, Earth, and many unique places to hunt down these glitches. The maps are huge, the gameplay is fast paced, but simple. You control squads in single player and can form squads in the multiplayer. Tactics are your only hope. Will is your only friend. Courage your weapon. In your hercs and tanks the human race proves what it can be.

The new ATR has been released (Alpha Tech Release) which demonstrates what type of direction the game is going in. Together, Death Eagle and I, have tested this game and found it potentially superior to the first SS. We believe this will be the next and the only next big hit in Mech gaming. Below is a link to the ATR and a demo of me playing it. Please be aware this is not a product of any "final" type. This is not some "early release" of the game. It is merely a demonstration to show that it works and what to expect from the beta. Beta then gets formed into the final, which is when this division would start. Some background from filefront.com follows.

The year is 2845...
The great war called the Starsiege has been over for six years.

Fractured and confused after the fall of their progenitor god-tyrant, Prometheus, the Cybrids fled into the darkness of the solar system’s outer rim. Throughout the colonies as well as on hallowed Earth, humanity sifted through the charred remains of the Starsiege, gave thanks for its deliverance, and began to rebuild.

However, humanity’s third brush with near-extinction in as many centuries has left it neither complacent nor naive. This time they will not wait for the sword to fall. This time humanity will strike first.

Determined not to relent in the pursuit of mankind’s greatest enemy, Emperor Caanon dispatches an armada into the deeps beyond the ghost-orbit of broken Pluto, tasked with the mission of finding the Cybrids and destroying them once and for all.

There, in the outermost darkness, three soldiers will come to grips with a humbling secret, and one, under the light of an alien star, will make a terrifying choice on behalf of all humanity.
