M.A.G. as you may know is split into three different factions...
Valor
SVER
Raven
When you first boot up the game you get a quick introduction to them and choose what army you with to fight for based on their strengths, weakness', and over all design.
Then you follow your faction into battle against an opponents base, or bunker down and defend one of yours.
This is where the matchmaking is cool, cause if your faction has been lossing alot on defense, you will get more offensive games than defensive games in order to gain territory back. This is a small part of the story that will unfold as the masses enlist in thier respective armies (hoo ra!)
And those lucky few who have gotten into beta *hehe* are already at war in forums over Bases they have taken, Lost, Retaken, Defended ect... heres an example.
