Re: SKULL SQUADRON

"Sounds like a plan," the blonde sniper said, adjusting his glasses for a moment as he inspected the trio. Not a full squadron, but that was fine with him - Skull group had always flown as a quartet before.

Michael gestured at the blue fighter plane next to him. "This is my bird, the VF-25G Messiah. You won't be flying this one yet - we don't have many to hand out, and it's a bit trickier to work than the others. Maybe you'll work up to it once you've taken the training wheels off and learned how to use your plane."

At that, he pointed to the group of gray planes just beyond his Messiah. "Those are yours, the VF-171EX Nightmare Plus. Designed for killing space bugs, which just so happens to be what it'll be doing here."

He ducked under the fuselage of the Messiah on his way to the Nightmares, motioning for the others to follow. "The key to the VF is right there in its name: Variable Fighter. We know we don't have the shields of the X-Wing jocks, or the raw firepower that the boys in Blade have. What we have, is versatility and speed. The VF will outrun and outfly anything on the field, and that's what you need to learn how to use. Switch to Battroid mode when you need close-range agility, switch to Fighter mode when you need to burn sky, and Gerwalk for in-atmospheric options where you need a little of both."

"Any questions before I set you into the air?"
