In 221 FC, the human race makes first contact with extraterrestrial life. The Lion Empire begins its conquest of humanity's small interstellar empire with the frontier planet of Valkyrie. Despite a spirited defense and the belated assistance of the Federation of Allied Planets, a large alliance of human nations, the defenders are overwhelmed.
:* ''See: [[ENIS:Story]]''
As he flees the planet, Kobayashi Ohta swears vengeance against the Lion Empire. Ohta posesses the legendary ENIS, developed by his friend and mentor Professor Nomos, who had chosen Valkyrie as his refuge after the conquest of his own people by the Lion Empire. Mortally wounded in the opening stages of the battle for Valkyrie, Nomos passed ENIS onto Ohta, who had helped the professor complete it.
With the help of the crew of an experimental Federation warship, Ohta escapes the conquest of his home, only to find himself on the wrong side of the galaxy, deep within the territory of the Lion Empire. Now he must fight his way home to human space, evading capture and aiding the empire's conquered peoples.

=== Character Development Paths ===
== '''A Chronicle of the Lion War''' Series Outline ==
A companion story to '''Project ENIS'''.
Following the conquest of the so-called [[The Mannheim Group|Mannheim Group]] in July 221, the powerful Federation Spacy was fully mobilized to meet the extraterrestrial threat. The 13th Fleet was directly in the path of the Lion's invasion force, and was given orders to hold the line against the alien invaders.
In that fleet, recently graduated from the Federation Naval Academy on [[Duchy of Cyracuse|Cyracuse]], is young Ensign Akito Lee. He is attached to a hastily reinforced fleet group and sent into the frontlines of the war against the Lions, where he quickly proves himself a skilled tactician and shipmaster following the deaths of all superior officers within his scout squadron and his assumption of command.
What follows is a story of epic battles and the vagaries of war, as well as budding hopes for peace and dark betrayals on both sides. We will see the Federation shattered by military might and covert espionage, while fighting back so fiercely and bravely that all but the most fool-hardy of the Lions are given pause. We will get a deeper understanding of the motivations of the Lion's member races, a deeper look at how the Federation works and operates, and see some of the effects that ENIS has on the course of the Lion War.
This story is supposed to be a little more serious, but still just as fun, as Project ENIS. Also, there will be a larger core cast of characters, a bit more romance, a lot more intrigue and some humongous battles.

== Old Episode Outlines ==
=== Episode One ===
Professor is in ENIS and fighting Noland in a modified grunt mech. The two are pretty evenly matched, until the Professor uses ENIS' special move, but Noland gets the upper hand and sends him plummeting to the ground below. As he falls, the professor shouts some bad-ass line about how 'He'll finish off the Lions, even after he has died.'
Ohta is mining. Suddenly, a huge quake hits that causes a cave-in. He finds himself trapped by the cave-in and heads through the mines and finds that the quake was caused by the crash-landed ENIS. The professor, who thought he was going to die alone, begins laughing even as he bleeds, because here's someone who he can make into a pilot. He shoves Ohta into the machine and forces the piloting control into his hand, his final act and a way of saying "FUCK YOU" to the Lions in passing. The Professor tells Ohta there's going to be a Lion Empire invasion, and sees him off before passing away.
As Ohta and ENIS head for their home city, and find it under attack by one of the Lion Empire's racial fleets. He fights them off in the city for a bit before almost losing to the Super leading the invasion, but manages to escape. He picks up a garbled message from the Evaikari government, and decides to escort evacuating ships. Thus Ohta leaves the planet, while a massive Lion Empire fleet orbits and Noland realizes that ENIS survived and thinks the Professor survived too.
=== Episode Two ===
Ohta fights off an enemy attack on the evacuating fleet as it rushes towards the edge of the system and the hyperspace routes towards FAP. The Super from the first episode returns and Ohta, still not familiar with ENIS, is almost killed, but is saved by Daisuke Ryokija in Wingschneider. White Knight picks up Ohta and he meets the scientist crew, who will eventually become Project Enis. They decide to help him escort the civilians to safety. Some discussion with the scientists reveals some of ENIS' potential to Ohta, but before he can learn more they reach the edge of the system and fight off an attack by the Grays. Ohta manages to finally get the upper hand on Im.C.M.L and defeats it, but just as White Knight is preparing to jump into hyperspace, it is knocked off its launch trajectory and sent rocketing off into Lion Empire territory.

Project E.N.I.S originated in the /m/echa section of 4chan. It all began as a project to create a new mecha by adding shapes & components to a single triangle. After only a few parts were added, some Anonymous wrote the word "PENIS" on its chest. But, instead of removing it, the /m/echanoids went along with it and worked the "P" into the design. This left the word "ENIS" on the left part of its chest, thus giving the unit its unique name.
This single thread sparked a wildfire of artistic and literary creations on /m/, with all kinds of /m/-original mecha being created and fleshed out to the great delight of our /m/etalheads.
Continuing to flesh out the states of the Federation of Allied Planets, to express a diversity of culture and society similar to the real world.
Fleshing out the Lion Empire's member states, so that the Super Robots and MOTW represented by these states are unique and dissimilar.
Define FAP strategy: Mecha on the ground, planes in the air and space.
Define Lion strategy: Invade planets, spearheaded by a Super or MOTW? Supers and MOTW only used in major engagements/rarely?
How easy is it for FAP to hold off the Lions? Are they pushed back quickly or slowly? In short, is the war more similar to Halo's UNSC-Covenant war, where mankind is quickly losing its * colonies and completely outmatched on the battlefield, or is FAP able to mount a better defense against the Lions?
FAP and Lion fleets: What sort of ships do they have, in addition to Mecha and Supers?
