From the Manual:
==== Tournament Mode: A Game Within A Game ====

>"And now for something completely different..." -John Cleese 

You though that was it, didn't you? Well, just when you've beaten everyone in the regular game, there's a whole 'NOTHER GAME! Yup, Tournament mode will let you start out as a cocky new pilot with nothing but a basic robot and the will to win. Through sheer guts (and money from beating your opponents) you can rise through the ranks, building your abilities and your robot into an unstoppable combination. 

==== The Rest of the Story ====

 The year is 2100. Quite a momentous occation in itself, but it will also be remembered as the year WAR finally allowed HAR fighting to become an official sport. The WARbot Circuit, or simply The Circuit, is born. The challenge just three years earlier for the position at Ganymedewas the single most popular event in ratings history. Grabbing hold of the oppertunity, WAR begins feasibility studies for a new sport using their Human Assisted Robots. In 2099 the first match is shown, and within only one season it eclipses all other forms of entertainment. In true WAR style The WARbot Circuit becomes an unprecedented event full of big money and power. To understand the success of The Circuit, one has only to review the past few decades of sports in general. 

 It all started with Geophrey Moore's book The Psychokinetic Exercise Program, written in 2059. It outlined various techniques to allow a human to precisely control the output of adrenaline and the efficiency of muscle groups. It is touted as a completelly legal way to improve the body. 

 In 2060, boxer Marsales Harris kills four opponents in one season. He had trained using the techniques in Moore's book. 

 In 2061, over two dozen professional football players die due to various injuries inflicted by players who practised psychokinetic exersice. The book and the techniques therein are completelly banned. After years of preventing illegal drugs from influencing sporting events, it is the written word that delivers the deadly strike. 

 In 2064, the Common Government (which replaced the United Nations in 2013) outlaws all full-contact sports. Within a year, all sports involving the possibility of body-to-body contact are disbanded. 

 Non-contact sports fall behind gardening and watching old Geraldo reruns as a popular pasttime... 

 Now, almost thirthy years later, the playing field is alive again. A one-on-one competition rises from the ashes of a long-dead sport. The gladiator is reborn in 30 meter tall armor. The game begins... 

 The Game Begins
