Mission 8: Acmeston Assault.

[Acmeston, Acmetropolis. 1552 hours. February 15, 2774.]

Ace: "Disperse, Garuda. Weapons hot."

AWACS GhostEye: "Seize Acmeston along with its military base, and use that as a base of operations for attacking the enemy's heavy command crusier."

Warlock Separate Battalion Leader: "Wipe out all enemies along the northwest route on your way to Acmeston."

Hammerhead: "This is Hammerhead. Moving to destroy all defense facilities along the bombing route."

Marigold Captain: "Destroy all enemy ships dispatched offshore of Acmeston. Take out any enemy forces obstructing our landing. We can't let them take the city."

AWACS GhostEye: "Acmeston's got some pretty tough defenses. Going in alone would be much too risky."

Ace: "Guess we better lay off the stunts today."

Hammerhead: "There you are, Garuda. We can't fly faster as you. Take out their anti-air weapons and interceptors. Should be a piece a cake for you, right?"

Ace: "Right."

Estovakian Command: "All planes on the partisan sweep operation. There's been a change of plan. Move to intercept all invading Acme aircraft."

Ace: "Talisman, Fox Two."

Ace: "Anti-aircraft gun destroyed."

Estovakian Squadron: "I'm engaged with an enemy craft with a Piasa Bird emblem. I've never seen moves like this!"

Dusky Shark: "Target destroyed. We're just getting started here."

Hammerhead: "Focus on destroying their radar facilities for now. That should weaken their air defense system."

Hammerhead: "Target confirmed destroyed. Looking good."

Estovakian Ground Unit: "We haven't been defeated yet! Shoot down those Acme flies!"

Trixie: "If we can capture this base, then the heavy command cruiser will be our next target."

Lexi: "And turn the tide of war."

Ace: "I've got locked on!"

Ace: "Bull's eye!"

AWACS GhostEye: "Radar lock."

Ace: "He's down!"

Duck: "We gotta keep those bombers protected."

Estovakian Ground Unit: "Darn it! They break through here and Acmeston's a sitting duck."

Ace: "I have a lock."

Ace: "Fox Two, Fox Two."

Estovakian Squadron: "Enemy plane fired a missile."

Ace: "What's up doc?"

AWACS GhostEye: "Enemy plane down."

Chopper: "Bandit dead ahead."

Slam: "Fox Two!"

Chopper: "Locked on."

Tech: "I have locked on."

Estovakian Radar Unit: "What the…?! How could anyone break through our air defense network?"

AWACS GhostEye: "Garuda 1 launched missile."

Tech: "I missed."

Rev: "This one's going down."

Acme Squadron: "Ground target eliminated."

Chopper: "Fox Two."

Ace: "You're not getting away."

Lexi: "Good kill!"

Trixie: "Garuda 5, Fox Two!"

Trixie: "Got one!"

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

Estovakian Radar Unit: "Use the data. Down the enemy before you're in their range."

Hound Shark: "Things are looking good. Stovie anti-air guns have been silenced."

Dusky Shark: "Garuda, you shined today. Seems like you always deliver."

AWACS GhostEye: "Enemy reinforcements are on their way. It's a heavily armed LCAC."

Estovakian LCAC Unit: "We've arrived at our attack position. Preparing anti-air weaponry."

Estovakian Radar Unit: "Cobweb, roger. Sending data."

Ace: "Garuda 1, Fox Two!"

Ace: "Anti-air gun destroyed!"

Hammerhead: "Right on! Just a little more."

Chopper: "Garuda 2 launched missile."

Chopper: "Missile missed its target."

Lexi: "Edge, Fox Two!"

Lexi: "Target hit!"

Duck: "Watch out. They've got a lock on you from the ground."

Ace: "Firing laser!"

Ace: "Ground target destroyed."

Estovakian Ground Unit: "They're gonna destroy our air defense system. This is bad…"

Ace: "Missile, evading!"

AWACS GhostEye: "Missile evaded."

Ace: "Talisman, Fox Two."

Ace: "Target destroyed."

Hammerhead: "Enemy air defense network has been disabled. Our bombers can get through now. Great work, Garuda Team."

Dusky Shark: "Acmeston is right over there. Don't get shot after getting this far."

Louis: "It's that bird emblem. My brother and his superhero team. We've got a chance with those guys watching over us up there!"

Danny: "What are you talking about?"

Louis: "They've got the enemy wrapped up in turmoil right now."

Marigold Staff: "The White Fang has taken a hit."

AWACS GhostEye: "Unmanned observation planes confirmed on radar. Be on alert for enemy cruise missiles."

Ace: "What do you want us to do? Shoot down the observation planes or cover our allies?"

AWACS GhostEye: "Both. If you can shoot down the unmanned observation planes, that'll minimize the damage to our forces."

AWACS GhostEye: "1st wave of enemy cruise missiles incoming. Point of impact is showing up on radar. Stay clear of that area."

Rev: "Here they come!"

Tech: "Shield to all planes, the missiles seems to dissipates before reaching ground level. Watch your altitude of your aircraft. They may target you or another aircraft near you at a lower or higher altitude."

Ace: "Firing!"

Marigold Captain: "Flagship Marigold to Garuda Team. We need you to take out that enemy fleet offshore and shoot down those escort planes."

Ace: "Roger that, Marigold."

Acme Fleet: "We've got a fire on portside, block 6! Get out the extinguishers!"

Avalanche: "Our fleet's been damaged. They need additional support."

Blizzard: "Blizzard, roger."

Avalanche: "Those Estovakian escort planes are loaded up with anti-ship missiles."

Estovakian Fleet: "Hey! Where the heck did our forces go?! We can't survive out here without them!"

Marigold Staff: "Enemy forces have been reduced."

Warlock Separate Battalion: "Enemy cruise missile just hit its target! Tim's squad is in trouble!"

Warlock Separate Battalion Leader: "Evacuate all injured soldiers to safe ground."

Rev: "Bandit down!"

Trixie: "I bagged a bandit."

Ace: "Garuda 1, launched missile."

Ace: "Enemy plane shot down."

Estovakian Squadron: "My canopy's been punctured. Air pressure dropping…"

Marigold Staff: "I've got enemy forces on radar. Hardly any, but they're there."

Marigold Captain: "Don't hold back. Kill all the invaders."

Windhover: "Hopman's been hit! He just bailed out!"

Hammerhead: "If you want to survive keep your eyes glued to that radar!"

Ace: "Launched missile!"

Ace: "Bandit down!"

Marigold Captain: "Enemy forces have disappeared from radar. Garuda Team, thanks for that outstanding cover. Standing by to attack in formation."

AWACS GhostEye: "The target number of enemy planes are destroyed. Shift forces to Acmeston takeover operation."

Blizzard: "Initiating requested support."

Estovakian Fleet: "This is Eques. I have failed."

Warlock Separate Battalion Leader: "Sergeant Louis Bunny, you're too far out in front. Guts could get you killed!"

Louis: "Testing 1, 2! I'm afraid the radio's acting up here! Testing!"

Ace: "Fowl, Twister, give my brother some cover!"

Duck: "Roger. We're on it."

Trixie: "Firing lighting!"

Chopper: "Firing laser and railgun!"
