Well at least the many settings aren't modern ones, so they'll probably be easy to conquer, especially once we get our empire back, although the Fall of the Samurai Japan would definitely be interested in learning the new modern ways quickly.
Well at least it's not 40k version.
Undead would definitely be trouble since they can just raise the dead.
As for Skaven they would definitely make they're own version of our tech.

The Devil You Know
The sound of the hospital cut out too swiftly. That was Clove's first clue.
Ingrained instincts broke through the fear, The Pronghorn reaching for the weapon she no longer carried as she scanned the area for threats, eyes red from tears unshed darting towards the door.
"Do you think I'd be so plain as to walk through the door?"
She feels bile rising in her throat as she hears that voice, a voice she still hears in her darker nightmares and when she looks into the mirror. Turning slowly, as if the longer she took to see him, the less likely he would be there, she turned to behold The Devil.
Doctor Eggman stood towering on the other side of Cassia's bed, a platypus and a red rift open behind him. Holding some device in one hand that he was seemingly scanning her with, making a noise of interest as he looked at the screen with some interest.
She didn't know where the roar came from as she launched herself at him, the man who had doomed the two of them to eternal service in exchange for her sister's life. All she knew is there was nothing left to lose at this point, why not try and extract some small vengeance?
He did not even look at her as the cold metallic grip locked around her neck, choking her and stopping her advance. Metal Sonic held her throat in one hand, the other raised and wagging a finger at her in denial, a mocking look in its metallic eyes.
Only after he had scanned her from antler to hoof did the doctor look at her.
[Shattered Memories roll: 37]
There is a flash of something in his eyes as he focuses on Clove but it is gone just as quickly.
"Now Clove, is that anyway to treat the person who is going to save your sister?"
Her fingers pry at the unyielding metallic grip holding her, desperate to get your hands on the lying devil in front of you.
"You bastard! You promised me you'd save her, that these machines would keep her healthy as long as I served! I gave everything to-"
He interrupts her with a casual dismissal of his hand.
"Yes yes, I have been told what has happened between you and that other version of myself and that is why I am here. It offends me that there was supposedly a problem as simple as a disease that some variant of myself couldn't fix. I see why he used it to keep you in line, but the mere idea of my genius not being enough to solve this problem is not something I can allow to stand."
He steps up to her, towering over her as she is held in the grip of one of his machines of death and leans down to look her in the eyes.
"I will cure her Clove the Pronghorn." He tells her, a tone she had never heard from him before. "I will cure her not out of some altruism or because some variant from a far flung universe did so, but simply because *I* can."
He straightens to his full height, the fluorescent hospital lights drawing him stark against the too clean walls of the hospital.
"What will happen to her afterward is for you to decide. Will she be eaten by The Black Arms? Brought to one of The Empire's work camps? Have her limbs torn off by Zavok and his Zeti?"
"Or will she live her life well in The Eggman Empire?" He turns his back to her, walking towards the still open portal. "I suppose that is up to you now isn't it Clove. Metal, drop her."
Her throat is released and the mechanical doppelganger instead moves to the bed of her sister, bringing the entire hospital bed and all of the equipment through the portal.
The platypus gives her a look she can't describe and doesn't care for.
She pushes herself up and stares as he walks through the portal.
She had paid the devil his due before and lost everything for it. With nothing left to lose the devil she knew had returned and offered her everything once more, all she had to do was follow him again.
It was never really a choice.

Clove The Pronghorn has become a Hero Unit! Her sister Cassia is deathly ill and if you don't move quickly she may pass and Clove wouldn't be happy about that!

Well at least the Archie version won't get anything to say.
Clove better be ready to help gain new territory for us or to expand our current one.
After we cure her sister.. So that the terrified trait doesn't halve her stats anymore and add cassia stats to cloves as a bonus

We'll probably need some more resources first before we can heal her.
Which is why we need to study that material from the Valkaria Chronicles game that has healing properties so that eggman can know what it does and can help her.
Fair enough. I do think we should go for it, but we should ensure it won't ruin us in case things go wrong.
A couple of non-Robot Power Heroes to start with.
Behold Eggman. The one who will conquer the world with nothing but his mind and his will.
Good? No, but he is good at what he does, and for the moment at least practicality trumps principle.
That Eggman failed, We won't.
Hopefully not, that would...complicate things. Though depending on the circumstances it might work out.
Also @Kingster @ShepardCom do we have an idea of how much time we have? It would be...inconvenient if we only had the one turn.
Good news if that is the case: more Mr. Tinker and movie eggman, bad news: more Archie.

Along with who knows how many other versions of Eggman as well, hopefully none of the parody ones wouldn't be included.
It's gonna be one crazy chapter if snapcube eggman appears.

Once you Cure Cassia, Clove stats will go up, but don't expect for Cassia to literally sum her stats to Clove. They will become a Hero Ball and Clove will get a nice buff to her sheet.
Yeah, there will be more chances for Archie Sonic Eggman to rise with Shattered memories.Thought, I will say, don't expect that to be a good thing. Getting the memories of one of Eggman's most...volatile variants is a double edge sword, don't think it will all be good. the traits obtained can be good or bad.
You have a few turns, You can also take actions to extend Cassia's times a bit more, but there will be a point where if you don't find an putirght cure to her illness, that's it, there won't be much ways to prolong her Life.
Ahhh, a good old catch 22 i believe it's called. You will need some help to be able to get the resources needed. Unfortunately, Clove isnt at...her best at the moment...
Hopefully you manage to figure it out.
Let's be clear, we aren't doing trap options or the like, there are ways to cure Cassia even with your current state of assets. Some are harder and easier, depending hoe you go about it.
There is only ONE trigger, for Snapcube Eggman to appear. and I hope you guys find it soon.
Also Clove's sheet has been added!
Does it involve Twitter?
Oh yeah no, that is why I was asking, cause this gives us the warning that we need to be careful not only with Archie characters, but also Sonic the Comic triggers.
Those two are the versions who no doubt would give us outright maluses because of how unstable they are.
But we could also use this to our adventage, iirc the dc goes down by 10 every failed trigger, so we could use that to try to get more useful eggman memories.
Honestly I was hoping for some variation of " The Doctor Is In" or " The Doctor Will See You Now" to be somewhere in update.
Yeah I wouldn't mind getting Archie Eggmans memories eventually (he had some cool tech). But I'd rather it be at a time where it won't affect our Eggman overmuch.

Hey, so.... what is actually wrong with Cassia? What do we need to cure it? We have two geniuses and a bunch of science stuff, so we're not starting from zero, I hope.
Might be NIDS I think
Well, based on the comic, it seems like whatever this virus is likely shutting down cassia body slowly and what Archie eggman did was essentially add cybernetics to slow down the virus. So it seems to definitely affect her organs.

I don't think so there are limits what can be included and they will be even more easy to conquer since they wholly outdated technology. So I don't see how they would be able to thrive or even exist in this verse, remember it's a Sega villain victorious world and the total war games don't exactly have what we consider video game villains on it except for Warhammer games but Chaos would steam roll everybody else since nobody would have any idea how to deal with them or even be aware of they existence until it's too late
Also here's another Omake:
Excerpt from the diary of Corporal Markus Brandt
Morning - Orders and Rumors
It's been weeks since the the Shattering took Gallia and everything else we called familiar and scattered it into something unrecognizable. Command still sends us out like clockwork, clinging to the old mission: secure territory, impose order, and claim resources for the Empire. But out here, in this fractured land, it's becoming harder to see the point.
Today, we were ordered to investigate a nearby village that reportedly had a heavy presence of "mechanized hostiles." We've encountered the machines before, Badniks, as the locals call them, mindless drones that seem to exist only to capture and enslave.
The strangest part of the report, however, wasn't the machines. It was the rumor that the Black Arms, those alien creatures who've terrorized the northern Gallia, were also involved. I don't know if that's better or worse than fighting people like ourselves.
We're soldiers of the Empire, conquerors by design, but it's hard not to notice how often we've been fighting monsters and robots instead of men lately.
Noon - The Village
When we arrived, the village was a ghost town. Empty streets, burned-out buildings, and an eerie silence that settled over us like a fog. It didn't take long to find the enemy.
Badniks patrolled the streets, dragging small, caged figures toward the village square. At first, I thought they were animals. Then I saw one stand upright, clutching at the bars of its cage, its wide eyes filled with desperation.
They weren't animals, they were people. Not human, but people nonetheless. They looked like walking versions of the foxes, rabbits, and cats you'd find back home, but they were intelligent and wearing clothes. Their fear was unmistakable.
I froze, rifle halfway raised. What were these creatures? Were they allies? Resistance fighters? Prisoners of war? Before I could decide, the machines spotted us.
Afternoon - Liberation
The battle was chaotic. Badniks swarmed from every direction, their mechanical limbs clanking as they closed in. My squad moved as we were trained, covering each other and targeting the machines' weak points. Explosions tore through the square, sending shards of metal flying.
It wasn't an easy fight. These machines were faster and smarter than your common soldier. Still, we prevailed, clearing the streets one building at a time.
When the last Badnik fell, the Mobians - yes, that's what they called themselves - emerged cautiously from hiding. A young rabbit holding the hand of an older, fox-like creature was the first to approach. Her voice was small but steady.
"Are you here to take us too?"
I didn't know how to respond. For a moment, I felt the weight of what we represented. Soldiers of an empire that came to Gallia as conquerors, now standing as liberators in a village far removed from anything resembling home.
"No," I said finally. "We're here to help."
Late Afternoon - The Warehouse
The villagers spoke of a large warehouse on the edge of town, where the Badniks had been taking prisoners. They begged us to investigate, their voices trembling with urgency.
When we reached the warehouse, my stomach turned. Cages in shaped of capsules lined the walls, but these weren't holding mobians. They contained glowing, ethereal creatures I'd never seen before. At first glance, I thought they were Black Arms.
The creatures, small and shimmering with vibrant colors blue, yellow, pink and green floated weakly inside their enclosures. Their glowing eyes were filled with exhaustion, and their tiny bodies flickered like dying embers.
"They're wisps," one of the Mobians explained, a squirrel with a bandaged arm. "Some badniks use them as fuel for their machines. They're alive, but… Eggman doesn't care about that."
Eggman. The name keeps coming up in these stories, like a ghost haunting this fractured world. A tyrant who enslaves everything in his path, machine or flesh. According to rumors invasion attempt in Gallia done soon after the Shattering by this same machines were done in the name of one Doctor Eggman.
A ridiculous name but one these mobians fear like he was the Devil.
The sergeant order us to open these strange cages. At first, my squad hesitated wisps or not, these creatures looked alien, otherworldly. But as the cages broke open and the Wisps floated free, I realized they weren't dangerous. In fact, they seemed relieved.
The Wisps hovered around us, their chirping sounds soft and almost musical. One, a bright yellow Wisp, circled me as if thanking me. It was surreal, watching these glowing beings float into the air, free for the first time in who knows how long.
Evening - Reflection
The mobians held a small gathering that night, a quiet celebration of their freedom. My squad sat among them, eating strange fruits and listening to their stories.
The irony of it all isn't lost on me. We were sent here as conquerors, soldiers of an empire that sought to bend Gallia, and now this shattered world, to its will. Yet these people, these mobians, see us as liberators.
Are we?
I don't know anymore. The lines between conqueror and savior blur more with every step we take in this new land. We saved this village, freed these people, and released the Wisps from their torment, But how long can this last?
The Empire's mission hasn't changed, even if our circumstances have. Would they feel the same gratitude when the Empire come back to they village not as saviors but as conquerors?
As I sit here writing, a blue Wisp hovers nearby, its soft glow illuminating these pages. Its presence is comforting in a way I can't explain. For the first time since the Shattering, I feel like we've done something truly good.
Tomorrow, we'll move on to the next mission but tonight, I'll hold onto this moment. The gratitude in the mobians' eyes and the freedom we gave the Wisps will be something I will cherish for the rest of my life.
Obs: No that fox and rabbit were not Tails and Cream. Anyway sure the Empire is conquering villages but some squads would no doubt come up in this type of situation where they are the liberators so they probably would feel real uncorfotable about it.

Those are the versions I am refering to.
Archie in general is a double edge sword, meaning that meeting Captain Metal as some were planning coming turn could go very bad for us.
Especially since memories trigger just went down by 10.
