Hokay, Front Mission 1 summary.
You play as Roid Clive an OCU soldier born in Australia. At the very beginning of the OCU scenario, you are sent to investigate a warehouse deep inside UCS territory along with your buddy Ryuji Sakata, an unnamed OCU soldier, and Karen, Roid's love interest. Karen discovers something in the warehouse which prompts the appearance of Discroll, the primary antagonist of FM1. Discroll kills Karen and blows up the warehouse, later on the UCS blames Roid and his squad of OCU for the destruction of UCS property and declares war on the OCU. The whole event will later be known as the Larcus Incident and will become the trigger to the already tense situation between the OCU and UCS leading to the 2nd Huffman Conflict.
During the initial stages of the conflict, the UCS were able to take control much of Huffman Island including Freedom City from the OCU. Roid gets dismissed from the OCU military and takes up a job as a Wanzer combatant in a local arena on Huffman Island.
A year later, Guri B. Olsen, an OCU special military commander of the Canyon Crows mercenary unit recruits Roid, along with his friend Ryuji to be part of the special military unit in order to reverse the OCU's losing position in the Huffman Conflict. Along the way, you get to recruit much of the members of the Canyon Crows through various missions and meet the UCS' elite Hell's Wall squad noted for their skill in battle (More of this in FM5).
The OCU along with the Canyon Crows successfully take back Freedom City (Cameo in the beginning of FM5's 5th mission) and decide to push their way further into UCS territory. The Canyon Crows organize a small raid in Peseta City to disrupt the supply line and gain some supplies for themselves. The OCU push goes as far as Fort Monus, where a cease-fire has been declared, ending the 2nd Huffman Conflict.
This is the point where the events of FM1 and FM5 stop intertwining, but the later missions of FM1 will have significant ramifications on FM5's story line which I'm not detailing because FM5 should cover them well enough :p. Particularly the S-type devices and Sakata Industries human brain computer experiment, all of which will be explained in FM5.
