As Jon was throttling the Exia forward something tickled at the back of his mind. He felt....aggression? Suddenly the radar pinged an alarm. 5 Mobile suits had whirled around behind the Decoy and opened fire on the Xekus. He whipped the Exia around quick and opened fire into the decoy they had flown out from. As he fired into the side next to them hoping to deflate it and obscure thier view. If nothing else it would at least eliminate the last of them. A green sparkling trail of particles...

As the ships edged closer, the Psyco Gundam's barrage came, a large light show of extremely lethal particle beams covering battlefield. The large majority missed but a few struck true, striking both the Yaldabaoth and Archeron. The massive Yaldabaoth was for the most part fine, the beams had been glancing hits on the ship's left side, leaving some holes in the...

The signature was weak, and in a world where computer targeting was often the only choice you had that was a very bad thing. Shots went wide, missiles found that they where intercepted by the defending mobile suits more then having a chance to find their marks. And the already amusingly inaccurate beam weaponry simply flashed around the vessel. But it was a professional vessel, with a hardened crew. They knew the job over and under. No one panicked. They just retaliated. The captain was quick...

"Shit!" The curse shot out over the radio from Vanir 2 as it was surrounded by funnels, and only the pilot's quite reflexes kept him alive...but with a crippled suit, with one four-barreled machine cannon and a left arm spiraling off into space and exploding as they were ripped from the G-Cannon's body by beam fire. The other, undamaged G-Cannon opened fire on the remotes, as did the GN-X piloted by Ridley, the F71 opening fire with it's machine cannons and the GN Tau...

Jon was being pushed firmly into the back of his seat even with the flight harness tightly restraining him, the pressure of the suit throttling forward was similar to being in a factory press. Thanks to the other two sqauds attacks they'd managed to thin out the numbers enough that his closer proximity made it easier to determine which were false. He relayed the information to the Hand and Quin Mantha as he passed by the remaining dummys. Thier negative temperature reading indicated no...

Another five dummy ships burst into flame under enemy fire, prompting a more direct response from the hidden Dolls as their commander revealed himself. Kicking off of the Shoggoth's hull, the enormous Psyco Gundam spun out above the stark white fleet with guns aglow in a brilliant violet. For a moment, he was as bright as the sun, releasing the full strength of the mobile armor's ten scattering mega particle cannons, one by one, across the...

That voice... Amalthea? Mikhail's mind raced backwards, thinking of the last time he had seen the pilot on the ship. She hadn't been a part of this operation, it had been a few days since he'd seen her, at least. What in the world was she doing here - and furthermore, on the enemy side? That would make no sense, yet there was her voice. Her reasoning couldn't be contended with now - she was an apparent enemy, and that was all there was to it right now. Emotional...

The Lunarian fleet had suddenly detected a new arrival which had been completely missed until now. It was approaching from above, separate to the Federation fleet, due to this, the scatter around it was considerably less than that of the main fleet, though enough to make it hard to know the specifics. However, given the proximity of the approaching object, apparently a ship, the Lunarians changed target for time being due to the recent barrage of anti-beam missiles that had made it even...

"Hmm, lets see then. We still running on minimum power?"

"Yessir, as you ordered." was the bridge-crews reply, confirming something that he could already tell from the state of the ship. Alastar smiled, checking the seal on his suit's helmet. His suit, an up-gunned Javelin model, stood on the launch ramp. Behind him, in two orderly lines on the launch ramps, sat almost a dozen mobile suits. Mostly the mainstay Heavygun used widely by the UTF, two others where...

"...now." was the single word command that sent Vanir Squadron and the Vanaheim itself into action. Five sets of beams lanced out from the swarm of dummy ships as the Heavyguns went into action, diving arounds the formations of false Pegasus-class ships and adding their fire to that of the mobile dolls, the particle blasts lancing out toward the incoming enemy. Meanwhile, Ridley's GN-X, escorted by the two G-Cannons stay back near the Vanaheim, as the ship itself buzzed with...

The Exia simply roared forward at high speed as the Xeku Ein's held formation. They spread out to make the incoming fire from the Mobile Dolls less of a problem. They in return opened fire as well, mixing thier shots between the MD's and the false ships. Jon kept his gaze focused on the target ahead of them. They were here to cripple the fuel facility and weaken the Terrans travel capacity in space. It wasn't a hard tactic to predict. Weaken your enemies reach. Made them less...

Acacia exploded as it was meant to, struck by the vicious salvo from the Lunarian ships. The unusually high amount of fuel stacked into the base sparked in an instant, creating a fire wave that spread wide enough to obscure the entire center third of the Federal fleet. Prompted by this, the Shoggoth fired a volley of timed anti-beam missiles, which soared out through the flames and detonated just beyond their reach, filling the field ahead in Minovsky particles. While the ship's gunners...

The Quin Mantha had, by now, caught up with the slowing Jenice - or caught up in the sense of space. He was situated about a kilometre back from them, and they had begun to spread out drastically. They now formed a rather large circle, about three kilometres in diametre "around" the Quin Mantha.

Mikhail paused here, as Lian's transmission was received. For the ships? No problem. Mikhail responded with confirmation of his orders, and the grey beast began moving forward...

The enemy had suddenly appeared on their radars, pings all over demonstrating an entire fleet's worth of ships approaching from roughly 20 kilometers away. It took a moment for the crews to get over the initial shock of being so outgunned before they went back to work. The situation was serious indeed, they were severely outgunned and in the middle of nowhere as far as reinforcements went, if they lost this battle they'd be hardpressed to retreat back to the nearest...

"Understood." was the short and simple, nearly monotone reply from the enigmatic Ridley. Releasing the radio switch, the green-haired pilot settled back inside the cockpit of his GN-X, not quite tense, but not entirely relaxed, either. Simply...ready. His eyes scanned across his wide monitors, noting the location of his squadron's suits. Close by him floated Vanir 1 and Vanir 2, the pair of G-Cannons piloted by what had been the Vanaheim's former squadron leader before...

There had been warnings.

The raids had gone unnoticed long enough that Acacia Station was almost on the verge of simply being shut down and abandoned like an outdated skylab. His arrival and subsequent encounter with the Phantom Blade had changed that, and for this reason alone Quirinus had made Acacia his home for the last four days. In that time, he used his connections to pull a new battalion up for defense, courtesy of the 2nd Autonomous. Unfortunately, the only available ship...

He drifted in a slow spin inside his room aboard the Acheron. His personal flight journal held between his index finger and thumb in front of his face going over his previous battles and sorties. Studying his previous tactics, what had worked and what failed. More to the point why certain things worked and why others didn't. He realized his comfort zone in engagements was medium to close range. The Legend would have worked for him if it had been built with a Psycommu system instead of...

Mikhail pulled on the neck of his normal suit. It fit very well over most of his body, but the chest was a little tighter than he'd have liked. It would get looser with time, but he hadn't participated in many sorties since boarding the Longinus. The PA system announced air would be drained from the hanger in 90 seconds. It followed up with an order for all pilots active in Operation Völuspá to launch 60 seconds after that. Fastening his helmet preemptively, he...

If sound could be heard in space, the Federation forces would have heard the myriad of sounds coming from the Lunarian forces as they approached the combat zone, a small distance of less than 10 kilometers from their objective, the enemy defense forces were no doubt already scrambled. The ships were battle ready and the crew was on alert as the Longinus, Yaldabaoth
