In the distant future, the nature of war has changed. "Objects"—massive, spherical tanks impermeable to standard weaponry and armed with destructive firepower—rule the battlefield; their very deployment ensures victory, rendering traditional armies useless. However, this new method of warfare is about to be turned on its head. Qwenthur Barbotage, a student studying Object Design, and Havia Winchell, a radar analyst of noble birth, serve in the Legitimate Kingdom's 37th Mobile Maintenance Battalion, tasked with supporting the Baby Magnum, one of the nation's Objects. Unfortunately, a battle gone awry places the duo in a precarious situation: mere infantry stand face-to-face against the unfathomable might of an enemy Object. As they scramble to save themselves and their fellow soldiers, a glimmer of hope shines through, and the world's perception of Objects is changed forever. Heavy Object follows these two soldiers alongside Milinda Brantini, the Baby Magnum's pilot, and their commanding officer Frolaytia Capistrano as the unit treks all over the globe to fight battle after battle. Facing one impossible situation after another, they must summon all their wit and courage to overcome the insurmountable foes that are Objects.

Victorious, Halreed's unit withdraws from the dam. However, Qwenthur suspects that the MDC may have a second Object that they have kept hidden. Halreed then contacts Froylatia announcing that he has been advanced to be the first place suitor, and attempts to force her out of the army to marry him. Qwenthur, on his own initiative, fools Halreed into believing that he has had an illicit relationship with Froylatia. Disgusted that Froylatia would sleep with a commoner, Halreed scraps his marriage plans, much to Froylatia's embarrassment and relief.

Meanwhile, Havia' team attempts to sabotage the Wing Balancer, but it is a failure and two members of Havia's team are apparently killed. Milinda engage the Wing Balancer in combat. Qwenthur and Havia reunite inside the mines, where they deduce that the coal mines are in fact diamond mines which are owned by an antiwar faction within the Faith Organization.

However, even with hostilities over, another Legitimate Kingdom Object, Indigo Plasma, arrive and destroys mines to eliminate the antiwar activists. Fortunately, Frolaytia managed to warn the activists in time for them to safely escape the mines. Qwenthur then realizes that Nutsley was not working for the Faith Organization, but for a radical faction of the Legitimate Kingdom.

As Indigo Plasma also uses infantry as part of its tactics, just like Qwenthur and Havia had assisted Baby Magnum on past occasions, several detachments were sent to assist on the mission. After helping to deal with an enemy platoon, Qwenthur and Havia discover that the soldiers are dispersing some sort of gas that triggers a massive explosion once ignited by the enemy Object's Plasma Cannons, putting both Baby Magnum and Snow Quake in a disadvantage. To make matters worse, the Legitimate Kingdom forces are informed that the Active Sledge is ambushed and sunk by six other Objects which appeared by surprise, and quickly regroup with Indigo Plasma, whose pilot, who is no other than City Slicker himself, demands them to surrender.
