I can live with that.

What if there are two nations engaged in total war.
One has only a small territory, population and very sparse resources, but the vastly superior technology of Mechas (probably as alien tech remains). They are some kind of hardcore collectivist religious militaristic fanatics of an alien/transhumanist sect. Art design could be some ISIS/Nepal buddhism mashup

The other nation has all the people, resources and territory, but is technologically like on WW1 level. And they cant have anything that flies because the mecha just shoot it down. They are a classic absolutistic monarchy with an elite of nobles and many poorfags pressed into the military. Their art design is a mashup of WW1 europe uniforms and architecture.

Moral of the story obviously is that they are keeping each other down. One side cant reach the stars without more resources, other side cant even build cool flying machines because they lack the tech.

Actually the main characters should be one from each side.

>>140757263
protagonist is a part of supernatural thing like most of characters that matters

>>140757185
i think there was a western trash movie following something like this, but how about a series where some form of god or gods comes back to earth to retake control, eventually resulting in war with one side having basically supernatural powers and the other side modern weaponry
basically fables escalating into war between the adversary empire and the human nations

I'm just spitballing here, but the general story could be as following:

Background lore, from once upon a time, only referenced through secondary or tertiary sources by characters:
There once was a "peaceful" early modern not-europe. There also was a crazy ufo sect in these lands and they were oppressed hard.
But surprise, there actually ARE remnants of an alien civilization. Led by their prophet, they discovered some kind of mysterious artifact structure and by some means therefore acquired mechas and a general huge technological advantage. They feel themselves as chosen by an alien predecessor race.
They subsequently decided its time for global jihad and payback time and started a war. But due to their relatively small numbers they can also only conquer and hold a relatively small territory.
Allying against the new enemy, the kingdoms of old slowly merged into a half nobility, half modern-bureaucrat ruled absolutist state. The other side is a spartanic, fanatic cult that build a giant ultra-moden citadel around the alien structure, they are trained from child to give up their life for the good of the group and never, ever to waste any resources.

Eventually the war got stuck in the trenches and the two sides are in a stalemate ever since.

Skip to present day:
Suddenly, in a region neither side really payed attention to, word spreads that a SECOND, giant alien structure was found buried beneath a mountain. Now both sides hope to reach it first and finally turn the tides in their favor, and so both mount a mission.

You want an alternative history anime?
>>
>>140757868

Two main characters on the opposing sides whose actions are contrasted against each other during each episode and who only actually meet somewhere towards the end.

Girl MC is with the cult, trained from child to be part of an elite group of mecha pilots, raised together with her squad mates of like 4 or so and to give her life for the squad or the mission if necessary. They all are supposed to commit suicide via cynaide pill if they are captured, also they are told that prisoners get raped and tortured for life.
She is supposed to fight for a few years, get a child from another top pilot and then return to riskier missions and eventually die in battle to make room for the next generation of pilots. Some utilitarian meanie stuff mixed with eugenics.

Other MC is boy (ofc) and from some rural shithole, got pressed into the infantry and tries not to keep the rigid military discipline and authority shizzle keep him down by cultivating a respectless attitude. They are also told that fraternity or mercy towards the enemy is punishable by death through firing squad.

Various things happen on their respective journeys towards the remote land with mostly episode contained stories.
Also some more or less intentional civilian massacres to show MUH WAR IS HELL. And whatever

Eventually both get divided from their units in a small skirmish, grill is shot down.
They meet somewhere in the wilderness, she feels like a traitor to her people because she is too chickenshit to kill herself.
Some survival innawoods episodes, ofc they begin to understand each other and yaddayaddayadda.
Eventually a patrol from Not-Europes side is closing in, he wants to fight them with his handgun for her, she shoots herself with his gun instead, supersad.

>Background lore, from once upon a time, only referenced through secondary or tertiary sources by characters
I'm such a sucker for this, I wish more anime do this instead of blatantly explaining thing that are common sense in that world
>>
>>140758307
Last episode, surviving mc is court martial-ed for being traitor scum and makes no attempt to defend himself or lie, but is still acquitted for morale reasons and even gets a medal instead. (Could be mixed with a cynical Catch 22-esque scene)
After all, the girl is dead, so who cares about the details.

The final battle between the two expedition forces draws near, MC is mindbroken and secretly unloads his weapon into the trench before the attack command is given. Runs out unarmed, a huge battle ensues, pretty much every known character dies horribly on screen as people try to reach and capture the mountain.

Eventually, our MC himself runs towards said mountain structure but gets killed just as he reaches the edge.
Camera zooms upwards from here facing down and reveals that amidst the giant slaughter, the hill structure covering the alien structure, and the structure itself, has the form of a giant peace sign
Background fades to black, white peace sign on black ground for a second, then roll credits.
