The Arts of Warfare aren't just about the fights. It's also about everyone that participates in them, including what they do every day outside of combat. What happens when the Panzerkraft girls are let loose in their everyday lives? Very interesting things. What about if the Jägermeistern guys are included as well? Get ready for a lot of tomfoolery.

Back in the present on a random morning, Erich and Matthias were talking with each other. Both were in their school outfits.
"So, to recap," Erich began. "You generally only shoot when your target is firmly in your sights and at relatively close range. For your aircraft, this is a bit different because of the wing-mounted guns. You'll have to shoot at a specific range to ensure all your rounds hit. We can experiment with different targeting distances for the guns later today."
"Okay," Matthias nodded in agreement. "That sounds good."
"Hey, Bastian! Morning!" they both heard Christoph's voice boom through the area. Curious, both Erich and Matthias turned to it in response. They saw Christoph energetically greeting Bastian with an energetic slap on the back. Bastian had no response besides a slight stumble forward. Both also had their school uniforms on.
"Huh, it seems like Chris is in a good mood," Erich observed as he looked on at the scene.
"Yeah," Matthias agreed as he looked on. "I think his favorite Fußball team won last night."
"Ah, well that's always cause for celebration, nicht wahr?" Erich commented with a calm smile. He then turned to head off. "Well, I'll see you later today, then," he waved to Matthias as he left the area.

Later on yet another random morning, Erich and Matthias were again having a talk with each other.
"You've got to remember that excessive maneuvering bleeds away your energy, and that you won't be able to get away from an enemy if you have low energy," Erich said to him. "In short, do not perform excessive maneuvers unless you have to in order to stay alive. When on the offensive, only maneuver to engage, not to follow."
"You want me to stick to energy tactics?" Matthias asked for confirmation.
"Yes," Erich nodded. "Your aircraft is too lethargic to allow good acceleration, meaning if you do lose energy in it, it's very hard to get it back."
"Alright, I think I understand," Matthias responded as he nodded. He then noticed two more people walk close by, and he looked over to them in curiosity. Erich looked in curiosity, as well.
They both saw a very lifeless version of Christoph being led around by Bastian. Christoph looked much like he didn't have a soul, as if it was sucked out of him. He was swaying about a bit, too, which seemed to come from his lack of life at the moment.
"Hey, what's up with Chris?" Erich wondered with a raised eyebrow. "I've never seen him like that before."
"It looks like his favorite Fußball team lost last night," Matthias observed with a look of sympathy for Christoph.
"Aaaaaah…" Erich raised his eyebrows in understanding. "Yeah, that's real hard to take. He has my sympathies."
