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.
