MODERATE UPDATE -- Storyline and Information
Before anything, the first thing to do is to clean up the confusing story and rewrite the fucked up information.
Currently updating and tweaking the first post, and cleaning up the remaining "shitty" old information.
Also, to tell you all, I plan to separate MegaCraft 1 into three campaigns -
First Encounter, followed by
Ancient Feud and lastly finished with
Showdown. I'll start with First Encounter, of course
Here's the edited and polished story, making things easier for everyone:

For more backstories (and spoilers), please refer to the pastebin entry about the upcoming RACC : Chronoshift.
Techtree Upgrading
Upgrading techtree is one of the unique ideas for
MegaCraft : First Encounter. In the MegaCraft series however, this feature is (planned to be) exclusive
ONLY to
MegaCraft : First Encounter
As the game progresses, for example when certain optional quests and chapters are completed, the techtree will automatically upgrade and the player get to use newer, better units and equipments. However, in most cases, units already present on the battlefield won't magically upgrade all of a sudden - you need to upgrade them one-by-one, but at a cheaper price and instant speed compared to training new ones.
It's weird and illogical to see a Footman of a Dark Ages fight against an Apocalypse Tank with weak blades and worn armor, right? And unarmored mages wearing robes couldn't survive a rain of bullets either, so they would become the much more terrific (and suited) Battlemages later on -- well-armored mages in cool suits, resistant against spells and bullets, and also cannot be crushed by normal vehicles!
The Warcraft factions especially, since they'll be receiving far more advanced equipments and technologies from their respective allies from Terra. The Terrans will also receive some magical knowledge from their respective Azerothian allies in return.
EDIT: Fixed the summary a bit. I know it's not great as I wanted it to be, but I'll try to improve. The main thing I did is separating the summary into sections, one for each perspective
