*The radio on GDs harness crackles to life*
"Lieutenant, this is airship one, we've sighted two groups of aircraft headed in your direction, don't know if they're friendly or not. Wait, i'm getting a transmission from one of the groups, patching you through now"
"This is hawk lead to Lieutenant GD, can you hear me? Over"
I hear you loud and clear Hawk lead, glad to hear another friendly voice, over.
"We've been sent ahead of the rest of the fleet to recon the area, be advised that we've been instructed to help you guys out in any way we can, over"
Roger that, we can use all the help we can get. Any useful info that you've picked up?
"We've sighted what looks like an abandoned fortress not far from you, west of your location. There's enough space inside the walls that you can set up a base of operations for your airships and an airstrip for our planes."
Got it, we'll head over there right now, keep an eye out for a mech somewhere. If you do find it be careful, it's tougher than it looks.
"Roger that, we'll keep our eyes open. Hawk lead out"
*GD and his comerades head over to where the fortress is located and transform it into a formidable base, heavily fortified from the inside and out. Several hours later the fleet arrives, consisting of dozens of airships and Hawk fighters. Some of the airships land, offloading their cargo of no less than 20 battalions of soldiers and calvary. In time, there are enough soldiers and aircraft in GD's command to defeat even the greatest armies*
"What's our next move?"
"Take two flights of fighters and sweep the area around the base for any opposition. If you see any sign of enemy activity, take it out!"
"With pleasure"
*Two flights of 4 fighters climb into the sky, splitting up and headin in opposite directions, one heading east, and the other west.
3 hours later the lead of the easterly flight spots the all too familiar blip of a mech on his radar*
"This is flight one lead, we've spotted a mech headed in your direction and are going in to take it out, over"
"All aircraft, split up and follow my lead, don't give em' a chance to take us all out at once"
*The fighters fall out of formation and speed towards the mech. One fighter gets within range and opens up with his machine guns on the mech, but only serve to provoke it as the rounds bounce off an invisible energy field of some sort. The mech pivots and fires it's machine guns at the incoming fighter, catching it on it's right wing*
"I'm hit! Repeat, i'm hit! I can't hold on for much lon-*static*"
"Damn it! that thing is too strong to be taken out with the cannons, switch to rockets and take out it's shields!"
*The fighters converge on the mech once more, and fire their payload of rockets at the target. the first four strike the energy sheild, and with a loud pop the shield overloads and shuts down. The last of the rockets hit home, reducing the mech to a pile of smoldering wreckage*
"Target down, and we are returning to base, Hawk lead out"
