Briefing[]
We've just received word, that an attack is being planned on our Space
Development Laboratory in Balboa City.
Our best guess is that the attackers aim to disrupt our ongoing
redevelopment operations relating to Mars. But as of this briefing, we
still do not know who they are.
This is due to the fact that so many different groups are willing to
engage in hostilities against us, in order to obtain information
pertaining to our redevelopment plans.
A team of defenders is being assembled to deal with this upcoming
attack. We'd like you to be part of this team. Your assigned sector is
Space Dock Number 3.
Destroy any who attempt to gain access to the facility. Our stance on
the matter is soot first, ask questions later. Good luck.

Dialogue[]
Announcement: "Enemy AC detected. Seek and destroy."
Supernova: "Another one?! This isn’t going as planned. No matter. I’ve still got a job to do."
Operator: "Enemy AC detected. He’s armed with a powerful energy weapon. Be careful."
Supernova: "Ahh...!!"
Walkthrough[]
Armored Core 2 Another Age Defend Development Lab
This is another mission that involves a 1-on-1 AC fight. The enemy Raven has high damage energy weapons, having high energy defense on your AC would be key to defeating him. He's also not too mobile since he's a heavy quad leg AC, and with a decently fast AC you should have little trouble avoiding his attacks. Hard-hitting weapons should put him down rather quickly. It's not recommended to use missiles as he has anti-missile defenses. Fortunately, Supernova is not much of a pilot and is liable to get stuck on the lower level of the dock, giving you free high ground advantage. Stay light on your feet to avoid his laser cannon and shoot him from above (but take care to not get stuck on the machinery suspended near the ceiling).
