As the title suggests, this mod is based on the EA game Battlefield 2142. For those that are unfamiliar with it, the story is as follows:
"In 2106, the world froze in what was termed the "second Ice Age".
As snow and storms swept down from the north, the encroaching ice swallowed living spaces and resources and a frantic battle for survival began across the globe. Small-scale conflicts bloomed into major confrontations, as desperate nations united to form new superpowers-- the European-led EU forces and the Russo-Asian army otherwise known as the Pan Asian Coalition (PAC). With the formation of these coalitions came the consolidation of brains and resources needed to develop deadly new battlefront technologies: the Titans, vast airbourne dreadnoughts with the colossal destructive power to dominate the skies, and lethal, armored Battlewalkers, designed to outpace and outgun infantry.The fast scout vehicles that have a special ability of a speed boost ready to ambush, the EMP firing APC that has launch pods for titan mode and the devastating tank that stalks the land with its powerful cannon and mounted heavy machine gun.
By early 2138, the world's six factions were heavily fortified, ready to battle over the world's remaining land and resources due to the northern lands being covered in a vast layer of ice. Tensions rose between factions to compete over the last lands suitable for human resources. Expecting an invasion by the Pan Asian Coalition (PAC) into the agriculture-rich plains of Northern Africa, the European Union concentrated its resources along the Mediterranean, ready to assist the Union of African States. A foray by two PAC battalions into Egypt seemed to confirm their suspicions, but the attacks were merely feints, meant to distract the world from the PAC's primary objective—to destroy the military might of the EU's premiere units still located in Europe.
Following the defeat of the EU army in Europe, the stage was set for the Pan Asian Coalition military to force its way into the EU-occupied African mainland. In February 2142, the EU formed 'The Mediterranean Wall', a line of defenses along the North African coast from Morocco to Egypt. Meanwhile, the Pan Asian Coalition was drawing up a series of deception plans under the code names Kupalo, Dazhbog and Perun. These exercises were designed to preoccupy and divide the EU forces in preparation for the PAC's primary mission, Operation Motherland, a comprehensive, multi-pronged assault on the African continent."

Political map:
The blank countries are currently undefined because I still haven't decided what to do with them yet. Probably a North American Union, South American Union and Oceania.

The BF2142-style interface is a work in progress and as such it is still a bit rough around the edges. This is just to give you an idea as to what it will actually look like.
