Super Robot Taisen A

After numerous conflicts around Earth, peace has finally come, if only temporarily. A race of extraterrestrials, Barm (バーム), escaping their dying home planet, come to the Earth Orbit as refugees. While initially the Earth Federation was willing to accept them into the Space Colonies, the assassination of the diplomatic mission results in the war with the extraterrestrials. Meanwhile, an empire on the Moon declares independence and assaults the Federation, and the Mars Colony goes missing after an attack by an unknown enemy. On Earth, monsters of Dr. Hell (Mazinger Z) start rampaging through again. The only saving grace for the Federation is the 13th Independent Battalion, Londo Bell (from Char's Counterattack). However, none of the members of the team really know who sowed the seeds of war. The battalion bands together to find out.

Like other SRW games starting from F, F Final and Alpha, players are given the option of choosing their main character and their robot type. Depending on the choice of the type of robot or choices made by the player character mid-game, the story can branch out in different directions. During intermissions, players can customize pilot skills and upgrade their current robot roster.
