Mission 1: Invasion of Acmetropolis.

[Acmetropolis, Acmetropolis. 1149 hours. August 30, 2773.]

Shleisinger Base Controller: "Garuda Team, you are cleared for takeoff."

Ace: "Garuda Team, liftoff."

Shleisinger Base Controller: "Cerberus Team runway clearance granted. Takeoff when ready. All aircraft under airborne command's jurisdiction following takeoff. This is not a drill! I repeat, this is not a drill!"

AWACS GhostEye: "Airborne Warning and Control System GhostEye to all scrambling defense craft. The situation has not yet been ascertained. We must implement an emergency reformation. Follow your individual instructions. Loonatics, Garuda Team, I'll assign you your flight number. Ace, Garuda 1. Chopper, Garuda 2. Lexi, Garuda 3. Duck, Garuda 4. Trixie, Garuda 5. Slam, Garuda 6. Tech, Garuda 7. And Rev, Garuda 8. As of now, this is how your squadron is for now on."

Ace: "Ok."

Chopper: "So I'm Garuda 2. Garuda 1, I've got your back. Now…go ahead and we'll follow your lead. I like to see what you've got as a flight lead."

AWACS GhostEye: "Garuda Team, you are authorized to engage any hostile aircraft above Acmetropolis."

Ace: "Roger that."

Chopper: "May the Leader smile upon us."

Ace: "Disperse, Garuda. Weapons hot."

Enemy Squadron: "Reinforcements. Stay alert."

Ace: "Fox Two!"

AWACS GhostEye: "GhostEye to Garuda 1, Talisman. Garuda 2, Shamrock. Garuda 3, Edge. Garuda 4, Fowl. Garuda 5, Lynx. Garuda 6, Twister. Garuda 7, Shield, and Garuda 8, Speed. We are currently in a state of emergency. Our planet in the American sector is under attack by unknown forces. Do whatever you can to fend off the invasion."

Chopper: "Garuda 2, roger that. Garuda 1, you call the shots."

Lexi: "Talisman, this is Edge. I got your back."

Windhover: "This is Commander Windhover of the 15th Squadron. The enemy is expanding its field of attack. Stay alert."

Chopper: "Garuda 1, there's too many of them. Use your SP weapon."

Ace: "Garuda 1, Fox Two!"

Ace: "Bomber down!"

Acme Fleet: "All ships to terminate enemy forces over Lake Foray. Get those anti-air guns ready for battle!"

Ace: "I have a lock."

Ace: "I missed."

Acme Ground Unit: "Focus all anti-aircraft fire on those bombers. Don't let 'em get any closer."

Ace: "Firing!"

Ace: "Got him!"

Acmetropolis FM DJ: "We interrupt this program for an emergency news report. Acmetropolis is currently under attack by unidentified aircraft…The damage apparently extends throughout the entire capital."

Chopper: "Please be safe…"

Duck: "I like to know who these jerks are."

Trixie: "I can't make out the insignia."

AWACS GhostEye: "We've got an ID on the invaders. We're engaged with the Estovakian military."

Windhover: "The Estovakians?!"

Avalanche: "Their economy's been in shambles for years. Looks like they finally snapped."

Tech: "They recently ended a civil war!"

Ace: "Fox Two! Fox Two!"

Policeman: "People are panicking in the east sector of Route 7. I need back up. I repeat, I need backup."

Acme Tank Battalion: "Enemy tanks have made it to the ground and they're coming at us. Prepare to engage."

Lexi: "Edge, Fox Two!"

Ace: "Talisman, Fox Two!"

Rev: "Good kill!"

Avalanche: "Looks like the Stovies are runnin' out of steam. Had enough, boys?"

Slam: "…Fox Two!…."

AWACS GhostEye: "The Estovakian threat level has been reduced. You should be able to hold out against them."

Duck: "Garuda 1, we've almost got 'em. Let's do this one plane at a time."

Tech: "Garuda 7, Fox Two."

Windhover: "So those jerks think they can barge into someone's house without even calling first?!"

Ace: "Unbelievable. I say we teach 'em a few matters before we kick 'em out."

Trixie: "Lynx, Fox Two!"

Ace: "Fox Three!"

Acme Ground Unit: "The bridge! The bridge is down!"

Acme Ground Unit: "Calm down and give me a SITREP. Which bridge are we talking about?"

Lexi: "Nice kill, Talisman."

Acme Ground Unit: "Our runway's been bombed to hell! It's totally useless now!"

Duck: "Darn it!"

Acmetropolis FM DJ: "An intense ground war is taking place in the west district. We strongly urge all citizens of Acmetropolis to stay indoors at this time."

Acme Tank Battalion: "Grobda Tank Company, advance. Keep those airborne tanks from moving in."

AWACS GhostEye: "Garuda Team, watch your necks out there. Stick with close range targets, and run them down."

Ace: "Radar lock!"

Ace: "Enemy tank destroyed."

Rev: "Speed, Fox Two!"

Duck: "Garuda 4, Fox Two!"

Acme Tank Battalion: "They act like they own the sky."

Duck: "They're all despicable!"

Estovakian Squadron: "How'd he shake me off?!"

Ace: "What's up doc?"

Ace: "Bandit down."

Acme Ground Unit: "Steve! I'm outta ammo. I need more now!"

Ace: "Target destroyed."

Acme Squadron: "I tagged one!"

Chopper: "Careful, now. The enemy has you on radar."

Acme Fleet: "Shoot them down so they can never do this again. We can't let any of the enemy survive."

Ace: "Firing!"

AWACS GhostEye: "Armored vehicle has been destroyed."

AWACS GhostEye: "We have radar lock on."

Ace: "All airborne tanks have been destroyed. GhostEye, how are things on the ground?"

AWACS GhostEye: "We've managed to stave them off so far. But we've got to stay on constant alert."

Ace: "Roger that."

Trixie: "Talisman shot one down!"

Lexi: "Missile! I'll break and evade!"

Acme Squadron: "Fox Two, Fox Two."

Duck: "Careful now. You have a bandit on your six."

Ace: "Allied attack!"

Acme Fleet: "Roger, commencing attack."

Acme Squadron: "This one's going down."

Ace: "Missile, evading!"

Chopper: "Shamrock, Fox Two!"

Policeman: "No, back the other way! The bridge has collapsed!"

Ace: "I dodged it."

Estovakian Squadron: "He evaded the missile. Circling around."

Tech: "Watch out. The enemy has a lock on you."

Policeman: "I somehow managed to evacuate everyone. I just hope they don't drop a bomb on us."

Ace: "Firing!"

Ace: "Bull's eye!"

Estovakian Squadron: "I've been strafed. Who the heck did that?!"

AWACS GhostEye: "We have radar lock on."

Ace: "I bagged one!"

Ace: "Firing!"

Ace: "Splash one!"

Estovakian Squadron: "I'll get a lock any second."

Ace: "Garuda 1, Fox Two!"

Estovakian Squadron: "The enemy fired a missile."

Ace: "I'll evade it somehow."

Estovakian Squadron: "Fox Two! Fox Two!"

Ace: "You're mine!"

Acme Squadron: "A miss?"

Trixie: "Garuda 5, Fox Two."

Estovakian Squadron: "I'm not gonna make it! Oil pressure 0!"

Slam: "Fox Two!"

Lexi: "This is Edge. Enemy plane shot down!"

Ace: "Allied attack!"

Acme Squadron: "Roger. I'm heading over to provide backup."

AWACS GhostEye: "Missile was evaded."

Rev: "Talisman shot one down!"

AWACS GhostEye: "Garuda 1, Fox Two."

AWACS GhostEye: "Missile strike confirmed."

Acme Squadron: "Shot down!"

Duck: "Lynx, there's a bandit on your six. I'll cover you!"

Trixie: "Get him off me!"

AWACS GhostEye: "Enemy downed."

Acme Ground Unit: "Glad to see the city wasn't completely destroyed. The Air Force really saved our hides."

Ace: "This is Talisman. Enemy plane shot down."

Ace: "Fox Two, Fox Two."

Estovakian Squadron: "Enemy missile inbound! Jink!"

Rev: "Garuda 1 shot down the enemy!"

Ace: "Allied attack!"

Acme Squadron: "Roger. I'm heading over to engage the enemy."

Ace: "You're mine!"

Acmetropolis FM DJ: "That's what I like to hear! Our Air Force, along with the Loonatics, is holding down the enemy. Keep it up."

AWACS GhostEye: "The Estovakian threat level is even lower now. Drive them out of Acmetropolis."

Ace: "Roger."

Aigaion Crewman: "Aigaion to Strigon Team. We are prepared to launch."

Voychek: "Strigon Leader to Aigaion. We will commence mission operations once your delivery is complete."

Aigaion Crewman: "Attention all aircraft. We are ready for Nimbus launch. Begin the countdown."

Aigaion Crewman: "Booster ignition complete. Launch in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Fire!"

Voychek: "Engage the enemy at will following Nimbus impact. Finish them off."

AWACS GhostEye: "What's this…Missiles?!"

Ace: "Whoa!"

Acme Squadron: "Number 3. Your radio's down. Number 3, where are you?!"

Avalanche: "Multiple cruise missiles just detonated midair! Half our planes have been wiped off the radar!"

Chopper: "What the heck was that? Where are they coming from?"

AWACS GhostEye: "Enemy cruise missile incoming."

Windhover: "These are no ordinary cruise missiles. Evade like crazy if you want out of this alive!"

Chopper: "Darn it! What about our city? What about Acmetropolis?"

Acme Squadron: "Hey, I'm on your side! Isn't your IFF working?!"

AWACS GhostEye: "Warning! Additional enemy planes have been spotted on radar. You don't wanna know how many."

Toscha: "This is Strigon 12. Target acquired. Moving to engage."

Voychek: "Calling all Strigon planes. Acmetropolis shall be ours for the taking."

Strigon 2: "Roger."

Lexi: "Edge, Fox Two!"

Ace: "Allied attack!"

Acmetropolis FM DJ: "A large scale explosion has apparently occurred in midair. No further details as yet. I repeat…"

Acme Squadron: "Which direction are the missiles coming from! Right or left?"

AWACS GhostEye: "This is GhostEye to all planes. Air defense command has ordered an evacuation. You've been ordered to give up Acmetropolis. Break away from this airspace and head west."

Windhover: "Are you out of your mind? We can't comply with that order."

AWACS GhostEye: "We are militarily at a huge disadvantage. Comply with the order and head west."

Avalanche: "This is Avalanche. We're not going anywhere."

AWACS GhostEye: "Listen! It's only temporary. The plan is to withdraw, meet up with all remaining forces from each area, then regroup for a counterattack. We can't afford to lose you. Follow the order."

Chopper: "This is Garuda 2 to Garuda Team. We really should get out of here."

Ace: "Garuda 1, Fox Two!"

Toscha: "Strigon leader is hit. Are you all right, Sir?!"

Ace: "Fox Three!"

Estovakian Squadron: "I lost a wingman."

AWACS GhostEye: "Garuda Team. Break away from this airspace and head west."

Ace: "Garuda Team, retreat!"

Tech: "This is Shield. I'm putting the HQ in a lockdown until we get back. The Estovakians won't be able to get inside."

Ace: "Roger that, Shield."

Acme Ground Unit: "Pull out? You mean we're going to abandon the city?"

Trixie: "Back off."

Acme Ground Unit: "Acmetropolis has fallen."

AWACS GhostEye: "Garuda Team, you're about to exit the combat zone. Maintain your course west to leave the airspace."

Voychek: "Acmetropolis is now under our control. All planes return to base. Strigon 2. I'm leaving you in charge."

Strigon 2: "Roger Lt. Colonel Voychek. I'll take command from here. I hope you make it, Sir."

AWACS GhostEye: "Garuda Team, you've made it out of the combat zone. Head for the rendezvous point."

Chopper: "I promise we'll be back for you. Just a little longer. I promise."
