Not to be confused with that problem your Xbox 360 has hanging over its head. Or a Heroic Red Ring of Death.What would happen if Japan never surrendered after the Americans dropped the nuclear bomb? And if Germans developed Humongous Mecha? This is explored at the action-strategy game Ring of Red. The American-led Allied forces, following the success of Operation Downfall, and the Soviet invasion of Japan from Hokkaido and after much fighting divide the archipelago apart with Hokkaido being renamed to Vastokayask. After that, the Korean War is simply reallocated to Japan, which is divided into South Japan, capitalist, and North Japan, communist. The plot takes place in 1964 with Masami von Weizegger and Ryoko Minakawa, two South Japanese test pilots who end up charged with recovering a stolen prototype mech during a North Japanese-led infiltration mission.The mechas, named Armored Fighting Walkers (AFW), as would put the Miguel Lopez from Gamespot, "Unlike the lithe, sleek mechs that we've come to associate with the genre, Ring of Red's cumbersome, gas-powered mechs aren't graceful in the least. They're heavy machinery, first and foremost, no more deft than a six-ton crane or a Ferris wheel.". They had replaced tanks as primary land-warfare vehicle, for harsh terrains, like the Japanese territory.Ring of Red was sold for the Playstation 2 in 2000-2001 for all countries by Konami.It is now available for download from the Play Station Network. PS2 game discs are still available, albeit rare unless one scours Ebay and other sites and stores that sells used copies of the game.See A Spirit Of The Sun, where it also depicts a Japan being (fictionally) divided into North (by countries that support China) and South (by countries that support US-led UN control) due to a volcanic eruption and multiple earthquakes that split the country in half. | |

Abnormal Ammo | |
| Ring of Red (Video Game) / int_12c65d9b | comment |
Abnormal Ammo: Crews give their vehicles options to load specific ammo. In most cases, this is normal: they simply load the shell into the main gun and let the pilot fire. In some cases, however, the AFW's gun is not a breech loader; as a result, the crews make do by loading the ammo into a signal flare gun and shot them directly. This includes incendiary shrapnel, poison gas, and armor piercing rounds strong enough to damage other AFWs. The Wire and Electric Wire abilities are deployed by special rifle grenades, which split into bolas and tie down the enemy's legs. | |

Unstable Equilibrium | |
| Ring of Red (Video Game) / int_17975d1b | comment |
Unstable Equilibrium: Every enemy AFW represents an opportunity to earn experience. If you complete a mission by capturing a mission-critical location instead of annihilation, you lose the experience that could've been earned from any enemies still remaining on the field. You also need to keep every friendly AFW alive or else they will miss out on bonus experience that is rewarded at the end of a successful mission. | |

Sniper Scope Sway: The targeting of your cannon swings across the body, gun, and legs of the enemy mech, zooming in and tightening over the legs as the targeting computer calculates an optimum solution. If you're careful, you can use this to snipe their gun or legs at low accuracy. | |

Gray-and-Grey Morality: The protagonist are mostly Neutral Good, every single of them have their own agenda, and to a point knew well that the country they serve is most definitely not perfect, North Japan Army only fought for their cause too. In the end, Yu Kaiho and Hidetomi Minakawa were proven to be Well-Intentioned Extremist (and far less of an extremist than protagonist feared to boot), and the protagonist refused to be used as Black Sheep and determined to expose the truth behind the conflict. | |

Anti-AFWs in general have relatively fast-forward speed and boast a lot of armor. In return, they usually have a medium cannon with very short barrel as their main gun. Their backwards speed is pathetic too. | |

Real Robot Genre | |
| Ring of Red (Video Game) / int_1e10069c | comment |
Real Robot Genre: One of the hardest example in any fiction, without being too impractical. Early AFW designs were postponed due to poor leg workings, and they performed badly in the relatively flat European Theater. They are by far slower than any WWII era tank in even ground. Crippling the legs are important to the point of Lamp Shading; there are no less than four infantry techniques for crippling them (two different types of landmines, tying them down with high-tension cables, and frying them with electric shocks), and the targeting computer, when allowed to calculate a maximum-accuracy note 99.99 % firing solution, invariably hits the legs. They're also quite noisy. Outside, they're stompy, and inside, you can hardly hear yourself think over the squealing and grinding of the transmission. | |

Non-Indicative Name | |
| Ring of Red (Video Game) / int_295087bf | comment |
Non-Indicative Name: The non-lethal gas shells are incorrectly labeled "White Phosphorous" when they're actually just "Tear Gas".note White Phosphorous is incredibly volatile due to being highly flammable and pyrophoric (self-igniting) upon contact with air. It can be used to generate smoke, set buildings on fire, and kill personnel. And it accomplishes the latter not by setting people on fire but either by suffocating them, burning their flesh, or causing other serious complications such as organ failure from inhalation of white phosphorous smoke. | |

| Ring of Red (Video Game) / int_35a24c16 | comment |
Geo Effects: Be mindful of the terrain that you're fighting on when you attack enemy infantry or AFWs. If you open fire and no damage is inflicted despite the fact that your accuracy was very high, it's because the projectile/s got stopped in mid-flight by an obstruction or even the ground itself. The most ridiculous example of this are barbed wire sections: They can stop both small arms and cannon fire. | |

Chicken Walker: Light AFWs, which in-game are the technlogical evolution of the initial 4-Leg AFWs, but weren't sophisticated enough to carry solid armor and heavy cannons like the latter models (although they're useful for reconaissance and anti-infantry purposes). The main characters' two Light AFW models, Kinasato's formerly state-of-the-art German model Type-2 Light AFW "Kuki" and Jun's upgraded American model "Nue", are based on the Panzer II and the M3. One model even looks like a giant mechanical chicken. | |

Close-Range Combatant: Anti and Light AFWs, soldiers with Grenades, and Mechanics in general (being armed with grenades as their standard attack). Ryoko's AFW is specced for close-ranged fighting moreso than a Medium walker is normally, having a snub-nosed cannon and a Power Fist that puts some Anti-AFWs to shame. It may have something to do with her morbid terror of the things. | |

Stock Footage: Played in very interesting way, most of the live-action sequences are Real Life war footage... but in certain scenes, AFWs are inserted creatively that because the footage is old, has low framerate, and very much grayscale, the mech's presence and actions look very realistic.

Ace Custom: Ippei's "Kamui", an obsolete Japanese light AFW heavily modified to serve an Anti-AFW role. In fact, the AFW is Ippei's weapon since World War II, and serves as a feared unit that anticipates the creation of the Anti-AFWs. Masami's "Hyakko", an upgrade to his heavily damaged AFW "Byakko" repaired with pieces of an unsuccessful prototype AFW. In other words, if Byakko is a Tiger I, the Hyakko is a Tiger II. | |

Spiteful A.I.: At the start of Mission 10 (Miyako), there is one AFW that you need to immediately destroy in battle with Jun's Team as that particular enemy is programmed to capture the two neutral villages on the map which happen to contain recruits. Failing to stop him will inevitably result in the loss of those recruits as there is no way you can make a second attack without losing Jun, forcing you to restart the mission or forfeit any chance of saving those neutral villages. | |

Tactical Superweapon Unit: The first story arc involves the Grand Theft Prototype of an Armored Fighting Walker that combines all the disparate roles of the game's various types of walker (except for artillery, due to the accuracy problems inherent in its Unusual Weapon Mounting—someone thought it was a good idea to put its guns in its elbows, of all places). The enemy army supporting it is only there to slow your guys down so it can escape, as it's fully capable of mopping the floor with them in a standup fight. The final boss of the game is the Dora Gustav, an immense Spider Tank sporting both the largest cannon ever made and a magazine stocked with nuclear bombs. | |

Yu Kaiho, who is responsible for the theft of the Type 3 "Hyoga", is The Dragon to Hidetomi Minakawa, a Northen Japan commander and Japanese nationalist who secretly wants to end with the occupation of Communist and Capitalist factions with a coup, using the theft of the nuclear-armed Dora Gustav as a tool (and the Hyoga theft as cover-up). After his death, it becomes clear that his ultimate purpose was to be a martyr for a Japanese anti-foreigner movement, and it is Yu Kaiho who successfully follows his will to his own death. | |

Super Prototype | |

Super Prototype: The Type 0 AFW "Hyoga" (codenamed "Phoenix" to the Northern Japanese, based on the Panther), which gets stolen from you by Kaiho during the prologue missions. It's an all-in-one AFW lethal at any distance, the MBT to the game's tank-class system. Fast as a Light, guns powerful as a 4-leg, twin Power Fists like an Anti, and the toughness and shields of a Medium. However, it trades long-range accuracy due to the guns being mounted in its elbows, of all places. The Anti-AFW "Yasha" (based on the SU-85), Hidetomi's personal AFW, which is basically an upgraded enemy S-85 model with better armor and cannons. It's also Ryoko's living nightmare. Sergei's suitably named "G. Sergei", which belongs to a type of experimental heavy AFWs that were deemed as impractical in favour of newer standard AFWs and Anti-AFWs... However, Sergei was fond of them and continued funding their development by himself. The AFW is heavily inspired by the SMK and T-100 prototype tanks. | |

Critical Existence Failure: Any AFWs and Infantry Squads can still keep going and be brought back from the brink of destruction if they have 1 HP. However, squads assigned to crew the AFWs will call damage reports, indicating that each shot causes internal damage and increases the felt weight of the unit, with the final shot wrecking enough internals that it can no longer keep upright. Infantry squads also lose members as their HP goes down. | |

After his death, it becomes clear that his ultimate purpose was to be a martyr for a Japanese anti-foreigner movement, and it is Yu Kaiho who successfully follows his will to his own death. Sergei Ivanowich Adamski, a commander sent by the Soviet Union to exterminate the Streifen unit, the Northern Japan resistance and the uprising within the communist Northern Japanese faction led by Hidetomi Minakawa. After failing in doing the latter, he makes a deal with Schreigen to secure the latest western AFW technology. He dies in the mostly successful Soviet suppression battle. Kristof Schreigen, the head of a Japanese cutting-edge AFW developer and leader of the protagonists' Streifen unit. He secretly sells technology to both sides, but after Hidetomi Minakawa betrays him and makes the double theft, he creates the Streifen unit to personally end with any proof of the Hyoga, although officially it was created as a secret unit to track the stolen Dora Gustav under his American superiors' orders. When it's clear that the Capitalists will make him pay for treason, he makes a pact with Ademski for Soviet asylum, but fails and he's secretly executed by American and/or Japanese officials. While they don't directly participate in the game's plot as antagonists, the Americans are wholly responsible of deploying a treaty-violating nuclear superweapon in foreign soil AND then losing it, sparking a Cuban Missile Crisis-level political conflict that could potentially escalate to worse very quickly. | |

Random Number God: The optimum accuracy percentage for shooting at AFWs is between 70 and 80%. But the moment you know that the game is screwing you over is when you miss a +90% shot (+90% shots have very little chance of missing and will likely cause critical damage). On the other hand, landing a last-second snapshot at very low accuracy or when you jerk the trigger after forgetting you were in aim mode when a special ability finishes up is very satisfying. | |

Soviet Superscience | |
| Ring of Red (Video Game) / int_8c625f4c | comment |
Soviet Superscience: Played With. Both factions of the Cold War have their own Humongous Mecha (AFW) bias: Soviets prefer more advanced Anti-AFW units (Although some internal factions push independently the unsuccessful twin turret-style mecha), Americans prefer the older Spider Tanks to mount huge cannons... And both Japanese factions, backed by Soviet or German-American developers, use mostly older Light and standard units. However, the plot kickstarts when the Communist Japanese faction steals a seemingly more advanced German-Japanese multifunctional Super Prototype from the Capitalists, although the stolen AFW turns out to have been developed by Capitalist defectors in the Communist faction and financed with German backing, which means that the advanced weapon was all along Communist, and that the German developers are secretly selling weapons to both sides... Ironically, this incident is merely a cover-up to the Communist theft of a German-American Loophole Abusing-superweapon. | |

| Ring of Red (Video Game) / int_93dc4e37 | comment |
While they don't directly participate in the game's plot as antagonists, the Americans are wholly responsible of deploying a treaty-violating nuclear superweapon in foreign soil AND then losing it, sparking a Cuban Missile Crisis-level political conflict that could potentially escalate to worse very quickly. | |

Artificial Stupidity | |
| Ring of Red (Video Game) / int_940a5958 | comment |
Artificial Stupidity: Enemy AFWs and Anti-AFWs will always engage you in a melee attack when you get within close-combat distance. An effective strategy for exploiting this predictable aggression is to plant Adhesive Mines and goad them into exchanging blows with you which, upon stepping on the Adhesive Mines, will void their attack and cripple them, allowing your AFW to punch them without taking damage. | |

Crippling Overspecialization | |
| Ring of Red (Video Game) / int_9aaf8eca | comment |
Crippling Overspecialization: Once a 4-legged AFW is in short range, it may as well present its exhaust pipe. Accuracy drops to single digits (as low as three!). At long range, it's king, at medium, it can still send heavy payloads hurtling downrange, and at short, it's cannon fodder. It's actually more effective to walk up to the enemy and let them hit you once with their Power Fist to end the battle sooner than risk taking a handful of cannon shots while you futilely spit potshots (especially if you brought someone with land mines). | |

Gender Is No Object: Never addressed in story except by the villainous Vietnam veteran Yu Kaiho, but presumably there's no issue at all as half of the characters are female and all fought actively according to their roles. Strange since we're talking about Japan, but presumably it's a part of the Alternate History itself. Hidetomi Minakawa exhibits the same view with Yu Kaiho, but only for a moment of surprise before going all out anyway. | |

Imperial Stormtrooper Marksmanship Academy: Infantry squads that ride on AFWs or follow behind in the rearguard position will never cause damage. So the only reason why they're even shooting their guns in the first place is to look busy. Medium and Anti AFWs have a machine gun turret to deter infantry attacks. It's a complete waste of space, money, time, etc. | |

Jack of All Stats: Medium AFWs are capable of fighting well with their medium cannon as well as mixing it up in close combat (though not as well as Anti-AFWs). The main characters' models are the Masami's Japanese Type 1 AFW "Byakko" (based on the Tiger I, and Ryoko's German-Japanese Type 65 AFW "Suiko" (a Type 1 prototype based on the Panzer IV), both being tested along the German-Soviet Type 0 AFW "Hyoga". | |

Anti-Vehicle: One of the AFW types ("Anti-AFW"), mostly as a state-of-the art weapon developed by the Soviets. The Capitalist main characters' Anti-AFW models are a heavily customized old Japanese WWII Light AFW model (veteran Ippei's "Kamui", based on the Type 97), and an Anti-AFW found within the Communist Japan zone (Emilio's Type 4 Anti-AFW "Tempesta", based on the StuG III) , which is one of the many Soviet AFWs that were secretly developed by the same Germans who supply weapons to the Capitalists, unbeknownst to the Americans, which later gets the heroes' German commander in big trouble. | |

Ryoko's AFW is specced for close-ranged fighting moreso than a Medium walker is normally, having a snub-nosed cannon and a Power Fist that puts some Anti-AFWs to shame. It may have something to do with her morbid terror of the things. | |

Incendiary Exponent | |
| Ring of Red (Video Game) / int_d323d090 | comment |
Crews give their vehicles options to load specific ammo. In most cases, this is normal: they simply load the shell into the main gun and let the pilot fire. In some cases, however, the AFW's gun is not a breech loader; as a result, the crews make do by loading the ammo into a signal flare gun and shot them directly. This includes incendiary shrapnel, poison gas, and armor piercing rounds strong enough to damage other AFWs. | |

Lightning Bruiser: Type 3 at the start of story: it moves like Light AFW, dishes it out like Heavy AFW, and hits like Anti-AFW. Its only weakness is long distance combat due to inherent inaccuracy of dual retractable cannon. Then it got the accuracy problem fixed... Anti-AFWs in general have relatively fast-forward speed and boast a lot of armor. In return, they usually have a medium cannon with very short barrel as their main gun. Their backwards speed is pathetic too. | |

Strategic Asset Capture Mechanic: The strategic maps have villages dotted around, Color-Coded for Your Convenience, blue (player), white (neutral), and orange (the enemy). Capturing them allows your units (mechs and their three supporting infantry squads) to be repaired, and villages with white stars next to them allow you to recruit a squad of troops. The enemy has a nasty habit of prioritizing denying you new recruits over victory. | |

The first story arc involves the Grand Theft Prototype of an Armored Fighting Walker that combines all the disparate roles of the game's various types of walker (except for artillery, due to the accuracy problems inherent in its Unusual Weapon Mounting—someone thought it was a good idea to put its guns in its elbows, of all places). The enemy army supporting it is only there to slow your guys down so it can escape, as it's fully capable of mopping the floor with them in a standup fight. | |
