    Abandoned Battlefield
    The wind howls over a dry and withered field. The rusting hulks of tanks and other vehicles rest among the ruins of what was once an industrial complex.

    Thump.

    Pigeons scatter from the skeletal buildings in panic.

    Thump.

    A massive cloud of dust is kicked up as an old warehouse suddenly crumbles.

    Thump.

    A huge machine strides into view out of warehouse, a bipedal vehicle towering over the smaller buildings of the ruined complex. Painted in dark green and bright orange, with a pair of missile batteries on its shoulders and the barrels of a pair of guns protruding from a reinforced brace on its right hand, it is nevertheless clearly well used, bearing the scars of numerous battles on its plating.

    Thump.

    It continues its advance, one step at a time.
