Mindustrial War (RWBY x Mindustry Crossover)

Everything changes when a shooting star lands on a planet with a broken moon

Remnant has always imagined about their first encounter with the extraterrestrial, but they didn't expect their first meeting to be with an AI from beyond the stars.

[SOME KNOWLEDGE OF THE GAME MINDUSTRY IS NEEDED HERE. So go download and play it now! it'll explain most of the stuff here]
After reconquering and driving the last of the Crux away from Serpulo, the Sharded's only AI has finally constructed the Interplanetary Accelerator, a massive railgun tower of sorts that the Crux once used to launch their cores into outer space. Now armed with most of the knowledge of their predecessors, they set off to land on either their local planets, Erekir or Tantros, or even their local asteroid belts.

What the Sharded AI didn't expect was that the Interplanetary Accelerator would send them to somewhere far off into outer space, to the point where they're unable to connect or even return to their home planet. It didn't help that they've also landed on a cold sector of another far flung planet somewhere in the cosmos
What the Sharded AI ALSO didn't expect is that this planet in particular.. had life.
A ecosystem that their home planet once had before the Spore infestation robbed it away from them.

but they won't be alone with their first contact, and sooner or later their past or new enemies will also land with them, and they will change the tides of war as they please.

This is actually my first time writing a story about RWBY so don't expect much lore-accurate or story-accurate details here and there, but I may do my research here and there.
