1. Steel Apocalypse
A fight to the death. Once every ten years, mech pilots gather together with their armored UHAAVs in an invitation only contest known as the Steel Apocalypse to find out who’s the best in the galaxy. The winner earns fame and honor along with enough wealth to keep them in the lap of luxury for the rest of their life.
When a down on his luck twenty-two year old mech pilot known as Jake Striker is given the opportunity to participate in the tournament, he jumps at the chance. Loading up his obsolete, fifty-five year old, five-meter-high, Paladin model mech onto a star freighter, he heads to the neutral zone to make his fortune. He soon finds out nothing is as it seems as government operatives attempt to use him for their own nefarious reasons. The odds of coming out of the tournament alive grow ever smaller as obstacle after obstacle is put in his way. Fortunately for Jake, his Paladin 05 is equipped with a prototype AI called Maggie that may well be the best the technicians in the Intergalactic Empire ever developed.
With the help of Maggie and friends he finds along the way, Jake begins to hope he can remain alive long enough to see which mech pilot will indeed be crowned the Best of the Best. But then again... nothing is ever as it seems.
2. Steel Uprising
The Intergalactic Empire is at war with the bat-like Crosioians, and things are not looking good for the Empire.
Twenty-two year old mercenary UHAAV pilot Jake Striker and his tactical computer Maggie are given a high priority mission to the planet Geris. Despite stringent security protocols, the tactical computers of some of the Ultra-Heavy Ambulatory Assault Vehicles on the planet have been revolting and killing their crews. Jake’s task is to find out the cause before it spreads to other parts of the Empire.
Loading up his Paladin UHAAV onto a star freighter, Jake, Maggie, and the rest of his team heads to Geris to put a stop to the computer revolt before it gets out of control. Before long, they find themselves outnumbered, and outgunned as the situation takes a turn for the worse. The success of their mission begins to look hopeless.
Fortunately for the Empire and the citizens of Geris, Jake and Maggie may well be the best UHAAV team in the galaxy. Only time will tell.
