A Mindustry X Azur Lane Crossover Deep in the cosmos lies a civilization capable of colonizing an entire system. But was thrown out of its system, alone, drifting through the dark, deep and cold space. Until it ended up into a system where naval ships are turned into humanoid creatures and are battling an advance alien race known to them as 'Sirens'. It's the year 1941, and the Azur Lane alliance was coming into a break due to recent reports of the Sakura Empire and Iron Blood obtaining siren technology. Tensions are rising and it only takes one attack for the alliance to break apart. Until a mysterious faction, named 'Sharded' showed up to the planet. How will the alliance react to this faction and what will the Sharded do to the inhabitants? And most importantly... Is the Sharded/Mysterious Faction an important friend or a devastating foe? [This is my first story, so expect grammar and phrasing errors. As over time, every chapter will be written differently, and that would mean I'm slowly improving. And as always I don't own Mindustry or Azur Lane. Mindustry is created by our Lord Anuken and Azur Lane is made by Yostar Limited. I also don't own any pictures put in the story.]

A shooting star? Or a falling machine? From nowhere? Falling into Terra? Until the massive object will hit on the ground and what will happen? /Narrator: update, the progression of the next chapter is too slow for now\

Everything changes when a shooting star lands on a planet with a broken moon Remnant has always imagined about their first encounter with the extraterrestrial, but they didn't expect their first meeting to be with an AI from beyond the stars. - Crossposted on Fanfiction Net! - [SOME KNOWLEDGE OF THE GAME MINDUSTRY IS NEEDED HERE. So go download and play it now! it'll explain most of the stuff here] After reconquering and driving the last of the Crux away from Serpulo, the Sharded's only AI has finally constructed the Interplanetary Accelerator, a massive railgun tower of sorts that the Crux once used to launch their cores into outer space. Now armed with most of the knowledge of their predecessors, they set off to land on either their local planets, Erekir or Tantros, or even their local asteroid belts. What the Sharded AI didn't expect was that the Interplanetary Accelerator would send them to somewhere far off into outer space, to the point where they're unable to connect or even return to their home planet. It didn't help that they've also landed on a cold sector of another far flung planet somewhere in the cosmos What the Sharded AI ALSO didn't expect is that this planet in particular.. had life. A ecosystem that their home planet once had before the Spore infestation robbed it away from them. but they won't be alone with their first contact, and sooner or later their past or new enemies will also land with them, and they will change the tides of war as they please. [Mindustry by Anuke and RWBY by Rooster Teeth] This is actually my first time writing a story about RWBY so don't expect much lore-accurate or story-accurate details here and there, but I may do my research here and there. Why is it #1 on the mech tag (1/1/24) Top 10 in the first contact tag too holy crap, alongside 100 FAVORITES!!(7/2/24)

[Author's Note: This is just some dumb crossover of Mindustry and Arpeggio of Blue Steel. I do not own both Mindustry and Arpeggio of Blue Steel. All rights go to their respective owners. Go support them if you like. I decided to just do it and create this story since it kept nagging me from the back of my mind. This is also my first story so please enjoy if you liked it :D] This is the end. Humanity's age of superiority is over, taken away by an AI Collective known as "The Fleet of Fog". No one knows how they appeared in the first place and why they decided to destroy everything that humanity has built over the course of their history. Their only hope now lies in the hands of a defected Fog submarine and her crew. Yet, as they wait for their heroes to turn the tides in their favor, a new threat emerges, one that comes from beyond the stars and cares not for the plight of the now endangered human race. --------------- [Old Title: When Machines Collide] (Had to change it since I don't like the original.
