The rec room was spacious compared to the rest of the ship. There was enough room for a billiards table that could be flipped over into a ping-pong table. The bar only had half-beer but beer was beer and the pilots where making the best of it. Most everyone had their orders shipped in the last few days for the maiden voyage of the NES Victory. "Hey, keep it down! We're on the news!"<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote">Quote</div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">"The War Department today announced the launch of a new state of the art battlecruiser. Department officials have said that the NES Victory - along with her sister ships Agememnon, Ashcroft, Chicago, Dreadnought, and Kirishima - will deploy the latest developments in arcanotechnology as an effective weapon against the Migou invaders. Able to deploy the latest in advanced mecha, NES Victory is scheduled to conduct a series of demonstration wargame maneuvers involving engel, sword, and nazzadi class machines for government dignitaries and VIP's tomorrow morning at Fort Ord..."<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>That was last night.<br/><br/>Today a select few mech pilots were chosen to provide support for the new engels of the Victory. The wargames would show off new doctrine in combined engel and mecha operations, and if proven battle worthy, other training facilities and recruitment centers would follow suit.<br/><br/>The truth of it was, the last crop of engel recruits finished rather poorly. Of the average 40% success rate, only 10% had the aptitude to tame their engels. Instead of waiting six weeks to fill out the newest company of engels, Military commanders decided to attach the new engels to mecha units within the new battlecruisers. This combined arms display was for the dignitaries and the news cameras. It was a rather decent spin to keep the morale of the citizens high, even as the Migou continued marching south from the North Shore of Alaska and Anchorage.<br/><br/><div class="floatleft"><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">          Map          </div><div class="spoiler_body">(http://i919.photobucket.com/albums/ad38/NotoriusBEN_3k1/ctechwargame1.jpg)<br/></div></div></div><br/><br/>Floating down gently with A-pods or jump packs, your group of mechs and engels land in the open field below the Victory. The quiet hum of the mecha D-Engines were a stark contrast to the engels ripples or hissing with restrained fury. They had not been released from their hangers since Yuma, and the feedback passing through the ESI chips said they wanted a workout.<br/><br/>On your left is the ocean, blue, inviting, and terribly dangerous. On your right, you see the dignitaries and camera people under their hazmat orange tent. You can feel the eyes of NEG politicos, strategists, big-wigs, and advisors upon you.<br/><br/>Over the Comm System of your mecha, you hear the stern voice of Commander Donnely. "Alright, pilots. Check your HUDs and watch your feet. Give these folks a good show." Arrayed before you all at varying distances were burned out hulks of training mecha. The further out however, old 1st War mecha paced back and forth in predetermined patterns among an urban training field. A quick show for those at home, and then everyone would be heading north.<br/><br/>Your mission is clear, annihilate these training dummies for the spectacle of the crowd.<br/><br/><br/>
