Eve and Dust (cross genre, cross platform) do something similar. In that Eve is a single server persistent world mmo - in which players can control territory and build empires, then relying on their combined efforts as ad hoc militias or organized militarys (as well as merc outfits, pirates and raisders, or spies) to protect their industrial cores (also players - and who builds all the boats and ammunition) - fueled by their science arm (reliant on both of the above groups and also upon the market) in a perpetual arms race- with the endgoal being to simply survive. The planet surfaces are a resources hotspot and those are fought over fps style by Dust players who can be either hired by eve players to secure interests...or can hire eve players to secure their independent interests - via planetary bombardment.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
