Setting and gameplay

edit

The main line of games uses a turn based system known as the BLiTZ (Battle ofLiveTacticalZones), set in Europa, a fictional continent based onEuropewhere a massive conflict known as the "Second Europan War" takes place between the superpowers of the Atlantic Federation, a loose alliance of democracies from the western part of the continent and the East Europan Imperial Alliance, an imperialistic monarchy. It continues from the First Europan War, which ended in a stalemate a few decades ago. Both sides covet the natural resources of the neutral nation of Gallia, which leads to an invasion from the Empire. The first, third and fourth game of the series follow the exploits of distinct groups of Gallian soldiers on different fronts of the Second Europan War, fighting the imperial forces, while the second game is set two years after the war. The games were designed using Sega's CANVAS graphics engine, making the visuals resemble pencil drawn paintings in motion. Despite considered part of the franchise,Valkyria Revolutionis set in an alternate version of Europa with different lore and characters, as well as a totally different artstyle and gameplay.

A subtitle attached to the project during development was "The Road to Kubinka", which referenced theKubinka Tank MuseuminMoscow.The game's main theme was how the characters regained their sense of self when stripped of their names and identities, along with general themes focused on war and its consequences.
