The World of 'Necron' - Screens

by Rainier on Nov. 16, 2001 @ 11:03 a.m. PST

Neocron is one of the three remaining cities on Earth emerged from the ruins of World War III. Partake in criminal activities, live peacefully, become a spy, choose to be a PSI-Monk with extraordinary powers or be a Tank Warrior, and go for some evil destruction. But bear in mind one thing… “It’s a new world, a new life… live it!”
Neocron is one of the three remaining cities on Earth created and developed from the ruins of World War III. This post-apocalyptic city has emerged after several hundred years of fighting, disease, pollution, torment and suffering, but has culminated in a strange discovery. A spacecraft with 3,000 settlers on a mission to the Irata colonies, once deemed destroyed, and ironically the wrongful cause of WWIII, finally re-establishes contact. This contact spoke of a paradise not seen on Earth for over 700 years.

Hope that a life on the planet Irata III was present meant that the majority of the brave habitants of Neocron embarked on quest for a better life, leaving behind their lives and belongings in the hands of criminals, delinquents and ultimately corruption.

The remaining dictator, Lioon Reza, whose genuine interest in the people of Neocron is minimal, currently governs the city. Huge powerful Companies and partly extremist political groups constitute the second tier of power.

So what is left is a life in Neocron, and you choose to live it your own way. Partake in criminal activities, live peacefully, or become a spy. Choose to be a PSI-Monk with extraordinary powers or be a Tank Warrior, and go for some evil destruction.

Bear in mind one thing… “It’s a new world, a new life… live it!”
