"it is the 31st century and mankind, is once again, at war. The battlefields of the future are dominated by huge robotic war machines known as BattleMechs. Piloting these awesome weapons of war are men and women, the elite of the elite, knowing that each battle could be their last.

They are…MechWarriors."

These are the sort of things that ought to be automated. It’ll be interesting to see how Japan handles their demographic crisis going forwards. If they manage it without significantly increased migration, that’ll be a standard for the rest of the developed world to follow.
