Hades is having fun

[srwuga_mods]

[Ever since the defeat of Titans, there have been worrying news of border clashes between the Federation and Britannia. Unknown forces attack installations belonging to one of the sides, then quickly run away before reinforcements can come. Eyewitnesses are certain that it's Federation MSes that attack Britannian targets, and Britannian KMFs that attack Federation ones! Both governments deny these allegations, but footage isn't lying...

Today, a White Chalice patrol manages to intercept one of these attacks! The enemies seem to be Mobile Suits at a first glance, but it quickly turns out they're Underworld forces instead, under illusionary spells. Deception!

Enemies:
Skuttler Suits - fly around, fire beams from their eyes, smash in melee. They're heavily armed from the front but have a weak point on the back.
Monoeyes - several of those guard each Skuttler Suit against enemies who'd try to take advantage of its weakness. They're tiny and fire pew pew projectiles.
Handoras - agile and fast enemies that have strong melee attacks. They can also fire energy balls from their eyes, like almost everything from the Underworld.

The battle isn't very tough, but the damage is done. You can almost hear Hades' laugh as he pits the human countries against each other.]

I THINK WE'VE SEEN WEIRDER!

These things are small fry! Just try to make sure the Britannian defenders see what they're really like...

[Laura's flying around, laying about her with her sword. Might be she's working out her grief, or her discomfort at the unpleasantly nostalgic hideousness of the enemies, or just anger at the attempt to draw Britannia in to a conflict under false pretenses. Whatever the reason, the Underworld forces are feeling the fallout from it.]

[Cora's on the field with her Team. The sheer chaos meant that they were in plenty of danger... But at the same time they could be ignored too. Carefully coordinated barrages are made to make up for their size difference.]

Well we see them! Maybe once we give the world a look at the remains we can ruin whatever plans these creeps have!

[And at a steady, albeit rather moderate pace, the armored Skuttler Suits are having holes blown into them. Pretty big ones, based on their size. It's the VeHA, toting an Ascalon rifle that it's constantly firing and then reloading with mechanical precision!]

It is curious though, Lynn.

What?

Weren't a few onboard the Chalice afraid the Inspectors would try to do this?

... Yeah.

Hopefully this won't give them the idea since it's out there now.

They're weird, but as long as they're not immune to weapons... Get lost, monsters! I won't let you kill any more humans!

[Tobia rushes in, cleaving through the first Handora on his way. A few others leap towards X-3, grabbing it and trying to immobilize it.]

Gah! Get off!
