GBS [Direction of the dispute]
Caster |
In the past, resulting from the birth of General Resource as a multinational corporation, |
|
. |
|
the structures known as the ‘nations’ crumbled and faded; |
|
history came to enter a new phase. |
|
. |
|
And, the image of this gigantic mobile maritime city Megafloat |
|
. |
|
is now a symbol of Neucom; |
|
it seems it they may be showing off their new power to us. |
|
. |
|
As for Neucom, which is in fact mounting the disputes that began in various places, |
|
. |
|
what are they deman... what are they expecting, exactly? |
|
We... cannot yet know how this dispute will eventually change history. |
|
. |
|
. |
|
But whatever the result will be, |
|
the one thing that can be said is that |
|
to UPEO, the body caught between both corporations, |
|
even if it can maintain the present peace and order, |
|
it will most likely not leave any new marks on history. |
|

Erich [Have you heard about Rena!?]↵
Erich |
Have you heard!? |
|
It seems that a little while ago, the Flanker and her ENSI System were broken down. |
|
. |
|
. |
|
And yet, that was because of a mistake when maintenance did a bad check. |
|
. |
|
You’d better be careful about maintenance, too. |
|
Seriously! Just because the number of sorties have increased these days |
|
is no excuse, I think. |
|
Because of stuff like this, |
|
UPEO is getting called things like “paper tiger” and “playing ‘war’”, you know. |
|
. |
|
In this state, that Rena... |
|
will probably be unable to sortie for a while. |
|
And at a time like this! |
Fiona [There’s a sortie order.]↵
Fii |
Sorry to interrupt... it’s a sortie order! |
|
More and more, those guys at Neucom |
|
seem to seriously feel like changing history. |
|
The timing is bad, but |
|
UPEO’s big star is absent. |
|
We’re gonna do it with just us, somehow! |
|
Well, see you later up there. |
Briefing
At the mobile maritime city Megafloat, |
a Neucom naval task force is amassing. |
Strike this before Neucom’s preparations are in order! |
Furthermore, there are numerous civilian facilities on Megafloat, but |
. |
also, civilian ships exist in the harbor sectors. |
In executing the operation, |
may you avoid to the extreme any damage to them! |

Cutscene
Commander |
Calling all units carrying out the present operation. |
|
Due to Representative Clarkson’s truce negotiations, |
|
a cease-fire between Neucom and General Resource has been settled. |
|
. |
|
All units, suspend the attack and return to base! |
Dision |
Oh really... isn’t that a poorly-timed story. |
|
This truce stuff is a phony decided on by the elderly. |
|
The age already desires change. |
|
Don’t you think so? |
Keith |
Dision...!? |
Dision |
I will only say this once. |
|
If you want to do something in this world, |
|
UPEO is nothing more than part of the way there. |
|
If you feel that way, come to General as you are. |
|
If you have that courage in you, I will make a new path. |
Fiona |
General’s ace... even his nature changed!? |
|
Hey, this is a trap!! |
Keith |
Are you trying to get this guy to switch teams!? |
|
That’s risky!! |
Dision |
But it’s a gamble with no risk.... |
Fork
Dision |
SARF’s ace, what’ll you do? |
|
Will you come to General? |
Fiona |
Don’t you dare go!! |
|
You are a UPEO pilot, you know! |
|
. |
Go with Dision
Dision |
Yes, come as you are. |
Don’t go with Dision
Dision |
Is that so... a pity. |
|
SARF’s ace. |
Fiona |
I-is this a joke!? |
|
What are you saying!? |
Landing
If General
Dision |
We’ll touch down at the airport. |
If UPEO
Fiona |
We’ll land on the carrier. |
Debriefing
If UPEO
Neucom’s naval task force has been withdrawn in accordance with the cease-fire. |
Due to this deal, combat will probably not be conducted for the time being. |

DSN [Cease-fire enacted]
|
■ TODAY, mediated talks between Neucom Inc. and General Resource Ltd. related to the Faith Park dispute were opened. |
|
. |
|
. |
|
. |
|
At talks held starting at 1 p.m., with representatives from both companies and UPEO Representative Clarkson in attendance, a cease-fire was enacted at 3 p.m. at that meeting. |
|
. |
|
. |
|
. |
|
Having been proactive about it for a long time prior to the holding of these talks, UPEO Representative Clarkson, who played an essential rôle in today’s cease-fire agreement, said, “Starting with this arbitration, we want to allow the disputes cool down everywhere,” expressing his strong intent. |

When “MISSION ACCOMPLISHED” achieved
Fiona [About what happened.]↵
Fii |
I think you made the right call. |
|
He’s dangerous. |
|
Plus, these kinds of disputes shouldn’t last much longer. |
|
That’s why we have UPEO, of course! |
When “MISSION OVER” achieved
Erich [Yo ace!]↵
Erich |
SARF’s ace! |
|
Somehow or other, I guess we |
|
got saved by the timing of that truce. |
|
And they said it just wasn’t UPEO’s turn! |
