''Z'' (pronounced Zed) is a 1996 [[Real Time Strategy|real time strategy]] game set in a [[A Long Time Ago in A Galaxy Far Far Away|galaxy far far away]] where a perpetual war is taking place between two different Interplanetary Empires of [[Ridiculously-Human Robots|sentient biped Robots]]; [[Colour-Coded for Your Convenience|the heroic red MegaCom Corporation and the dastardy blue TransGlobal Empires]]. We follow the story of Commander Zod and his two transport pilots Brad and Allan as they travel across five different worlds; blowing things up, knocking back rocket fuel and taking down names. |

In 2001 a sequel was made; ''Z: Steel Soldiers'' which followed the story of Zod (now a lowly Captain) being in charge of one side of a neutral zone on a distant planet. Currently the two forces are under a ceasefire and the possibility for a more permanent peace is also certain. Zod however enters the neutral zone after his men having shot down an aircraft, on it he finds a new secret weapon and uncovers a massive plot of the blues to wipe out major strategic red bases all at once during the peace talks. |
