Transformers: Core protocols
When the Autobots and Decepticons crash-land on Rubicon, humanity's leaders see them not as potential allies or invaders but as existential threats. These alien machines, capable of immense destruction and unprecedented adaptability, threaten to destabilize the delicate balance between Rubicon's warring corporate factions. With Coral-powered Armored Cores at the forefront of their military strength, humanity unites under a single directive: the eradication of the Transformers.
The corporations, desperate to secure alien technology for their own dominance, deploy elite Armored Core pilots to hunt the Autobots and Decepticons alike. These pilots-mercenaries driven by contracts and survival-are thrust into a conflict unlike any they've faced before. The Transformers, outnumbered and unfamiliar with Coral's unique energy properties, pose both a challenge and an opportunity: capturing them could unlock unparalleled technological advancements.
As the hunt intensifies, humanity grapples with its own morality. Are these alien beings sentient creatures deserving of empathy, or tools to be exploited in the never-ending war for power? Some pilots begin to question their orders, especially when faced with the Autobots' desperate attempts to protect innocent lives. Others revel in the challenge, eager to prove that no machine-alien or otherwise-can stand against humanity's resolve.
But as the Decepticons manipulate humanity's divisions for their own gain, the corporations' greed risks igniting a war far more devastating than they anticipated. In the end, humanity must confront its own nature: Will the desire for dominance lead to its salvation-or its destruction?
