-(RPG)
+A JRPG set in the War of Aegis universe. Before its release, there was some speculation as to whether the primary antagonist would be shriekers, zombies, or some new threat. There was a significant online petition created by fans campaigning for the inclusion of the lizards from a ''Shadow Covenant'' expansion to be given a bigger role; although this was mostly by players who thought that the appearance of shriekers was a foregone conclusion, and wanted humanity's oldest enemies to retain their enigmatically alien politics and strategy.

		+	One rumour, as yet unconfirmed, suggests that when initially released the game was going to have a ''War of Aegis'' title, but would have been denied an 'Everyone' rating for their use of the word "War". Oddly enough, changing it to "conflict" was all the change they needed to make their game suitable for children.

	It is primarily a deathmatch party game, designed to allow people to play against each other either online or on split screen. It uses an early version of the War of Aegis 6 engine, which was already in development when this game was released. However, the shaders have been replaced to give the game a cartoony atmosphere, with the uniforms of the OMC changed to primary colours, and most of the characters becoming giant-headed caricatures. Cameos also appear from many other games and TV properties, including [[Bubble Hunt Magnate]], [[Bibi Babi Miko]], and [[Teddy Lupin]]. In this game, there is no character death; player characters are instead "stunned" and sit down with cartoon birds or stars flying around their heads for a short recovery time.

 The original FPS. This game's story cast the player as a commander in the '''Orbital Marine Corps''' who is forced to go back to the front lines to lead a convoy of refugees to safety when aliens known as '''Shriekers''' launched devastating attacks on Earth and many of its colonies. The OMC was effectively a ceremonial force at this point in the story; deprived of all their real power thanks to centuries of disagreement between the Earth and colonial governments.

+The most memorable advertisements for the game featured '''Admiral Book''', a holographic "command AI" who was responsible for setting out the missions for the player. The AI's appearance was unofficially modelled on [[Lady Maxime]], who recorded the character's voice. She is tall and heavily built, and even her OMC uniform is heavily stylised to give the impression of a dominatrix outfit; it isn't particularly revealing, but the fabrics being rendered without a texture map can give the impression of latex or rubber.

 In-character, the zombies are referred to as 'revenants', and it is left ambiguous whether they are actually dead people, or the descendants of an isolated human population who have evolved into something else under extreme circumstances. But by this point, almost all players and game journalists call them zombies.
-The most innovative part of this game was the multiplayer options, which allows squads from different colonies to raid the ship at the same time; fighting each other directly, or trying to herd the (limited numbers of) zombies towards their enemies.

	In [[A Dose of Humiliation]], Marcie's little brothers play in competitive leagues on '''Shadow Covenant 7: Pride of Oceania'''. This is a few years old at the time (DoH is set in the near future), but still popular among people who like being rude and antisocial in the multiplayer leagues. The successive games, '''Shadow Covenant Final''' and '''War of Aegis: Next Alliance''' (both of which were hailed as the final game in the franchise) are prone to throwing in semi-cooperative missions at random, so the haters never do particularly well.
