AT-43 by Rackham is prepainted miniature game set in the Ava. Ava is a planet lost in the midst of many others but houses a bold and aggresive species: Mankind.

Although largerly an undiscovered planet, humanity will soon face a threat known as the Therians. A great battle ensued and Ava suffered greatly from these battles. Ava's weather and orbit changed drastically. This marked the beginning of a time known as, Trauma.

Forty three years after Trauma, the combined forces of humanity is launching a counter attack. This time, they are bringing reinforcements - the mysterious Karmans.

AT-43 is developed by Rackham, the same company developing Confrontation, a tabletop miniature game. Currently, they have announced 4 armies:

1. UNA White Stars - Your typical sci fi military type backed by heavy mechas
2. Therian - invading alien race with cybernetic and skeletal troops
3. Red Blok - second human army to debut early this year
4. Unknown - mysterious army set to be announced during GENCON 2007

In Malaysia, AT-43 has already arrived in stores with the availability of AT-43 Initiation Set: Operation Damocles. It is a complete game for 2-player and it includes an introduction to the rules of AT-43.

The White Stars forces face, over several missions, the terrifying Therian aliens on one of their Factory-planets. These scenarios allow you to get acquainted with the basics of the game in a simplified form at first, and then step by step into strategic depth. The box contains all the necessary material for two players to play the six missions of the handbook. Three bonus scenarios are also included so as to integrate forces from the White Stars and the Therian Army Boxes.

The Damocles Initiation set includes:
- A 120 page full color Rules handbook in 5 languages (English, Spanish, German, Italian and French), with dozens of photos and illustrations;
- 19 plastic miniatures, assembled and painted (17 foot soldiers and 2 Combat Striders);
- 1 game support poster (illustrated on both sides);
- Terrain elements: 2 generators, 6 low wall sections, 1 container;
- Game material: 6 Rackham d6, 1 AT-43 ribbon ruler, and 9 AT-43 reference cards.
