Summary
The plot of the game refers to feudal Japan being given giant mecha, the player being the pilot of one such mecha, the Aleste, fighting against the other feudal lords.
You play the part of Kage, the sole surviving member of Oda "Demon King" Nobunaga's robot ninja army (known as the White Fang) and the pilot of the Aleste. The Aleste is an 8-metre tall mechanized steam-powered mech. At the start of the game, Nobunaga's home is razed to the ground by Tetsu, who is a frequent end-of-level boss throughout the game and the older brother of Kage. Nobunaga survives and Kage defeats Tetsu and resumes his mission to bring down the Anti-Oda Alliance. Tetsu is humilliated and refuses to believe that he was defeated by his younger brother Kage through skill alone, so he builds himself a gigantic mecha to match the power of the Aleste's. He then tests the machine's firepower on a defenseless village, killing all of the innocent villagers caught in the onslaught. Kage eventually learns of this and fights Tetsu in a battle to the death. The Aleste, in the end, wins and Tetsu dies. Kage continues his mission and after defeating all of the opposing warlords he comes face to face with Astaros, the leader of the Anti-Oda Alliance. After defeating Astaros, Kage learns that she has come from another dimension which was supposedly destroyed by Nobunaga who she believes to be the resurrected figure of Lucifer. Nobunaga plans to take over the world and Kage eventually uses the Aleste to stop him once and for all which is depicted in the game's ending sequence.

Famous quotes containing the word summary:
“Product of a myriad various minds and contending tongues, compact of obscure and minute association, a language has its own abundant and often recondite laws, in the habitual and summary recognition of which scholarship consists.”
—Walter Pater (1839–1894)
“I have simplified my politics into an utter detestation of all existing governments; and, as it is the shortest and most agreeable and summary feeling imaginable, the first moment of an universal republic would convert me into an advocate for single and uncontradicted despotism. The fact is, riches are power, and poverty is slavery all over the earth, and one sort of establishment is no better, nor worse, for a people than another.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
