Briefing[]

We'd like you to initiate an attack on a recently constructed Zio
Matrix facility.

The facility is an airbase located in the Horwick Mountains. Zio
Matrix claims that it is simply a mining enterprise, but we know that
this isn't the case.

The area of operations and its surroundings are important to our
corporation's air transport needs. We cannot let Zio Matrix control the
rights to this airspace.

Your target is a massive bomber stationed at the base. Seek it out and
destroy it. We're counting on you, Raven.

Armored Core 2 Another Age Attack the Airbase

This mission is a moderately hard mission so be very careful in your movements. The mission will start off with you being dropped off onto a cliff. Be careful as they don't drop you directly into the mission area, you have either boost on the rocks or fall onto a platform below. There is no real recommendation as to which route to take for this mission, you can either advance through the platforms within the rocks or traverse across the rocks' surface, crossing over the canyons as you go along.

Do note however, that there is a secret item in the mission. It is located in the rooms within the second cliff. You will have to enter via a platform located below. Along the way you will also encounter some MTs. Get rid of them and you will then come by an elevator shaft. Use the elevator to ascend the shaft and you will enter a room full of containers. The secret item is located on the corner that is on the right side of the elevator when you come up.

After that, you will then have to clear past another corridor with more MTs. Clear them out and you will now have to cross over to the final cliff. There's a platform below, advance to it and you will have to clear out more MTs. Once you reach the end of the corridor, you will then pass through the gate which will lead you to the target bomber. However, be warned: there's an AC that's guarding it and this AC can pack a rather nasty punch as it has machine gun weapon arms and a slug gun, both of which can whittle down AP in mere seconds. Fortunately, this AC doesn't have much durability and AP and hard-hitting weapons like the Karasawa can put him down quite easily. Once the AC is down, either empty whatever you have left in your weapons on the bomber or go up to it and slash it repeatedly with a blade to destroy it. Once the bomber is destroyed the mission is over.

Trivia[]

  • There is a back unit weapon (ZWR-M/30) hidden in this mission. The part is hidden inside a box in the second part of the canyon.
  • There are two ways to the target. One is taking the route through the base and the other one is by taking the upper route on top of the canyon.
  • You should be careful when being dropped of as you will fall into the canyon and fail the mission if you don't boost on to the landing platform.
