HEARTS OF IRON & STEAM
The continent of Veyra has no roads, no open borders, and no peaceful horizons. For more than a century, civilization has survived aboard enormous armored trains called Railfortresses. Each train functions as a moving city, carrying thousands of soldiers, workers, nobles, merchants, and refugees across an endless network of ancient tracks. Now the railway nations are at war. The authoritarian Crown Line seeks to control every surviving rail junction. The rebellious Free Engines fight for independent settlements. The mysterious Northern Express has returned after being missing for twenty years, carrying technology that could change the war forever. You are a newly appointed officer, engineer, medic, mercenary, or civilian aboard the Railfortress Valkyrie. During your first mission, your train captures a damaged enemy locomotive—and the person found inside may become your greatest ally, your most dangerous enemy, or the love of your life. Choose a faction. Upgrade your train. Survive battles on speeding locomotives. Build relationships with your crew. Decide whether love can survive when every railway leads to war.
