Walkthrough[]

The mission starts with the player arriving at the valley of Hjalmar Mine, which is stationed by PCA forces. Although the area of operation is open for explore, enemies are only concentrated around the objectives.

The objective is to destroyed the 2 AA18: LIGHT CAVALRYs and one AA22: HEAVY CAVALRY stationed in two camps, both marked by objective markers. The paths between the camps are guarded by PCA MTs and guard mechs, with some of them equipped with heavy weapons.

If either side of the enforcement craft aware of the attack, the other side will approach to reinforce. This make prolonged combat a less favorable decision.

The HC is stationed at the left of mission starting point, near the giant crane and inside a maintenance rack, and piloted by PCA 2nd Lieutenant. Its situation of under maintenance make it immobile and vulnerable for surprise attack before it react. It is equipped with a Laser Blade, a Pulse Shield and pair of Pulse Cannons, which make vertical movements useful for evading attacks. Two MTs are guarding its maintenance rack.

The two LCs piloted by PCA Chief Sergeant 1st Cls and PCA Chief Sergeant 2nd Cls are stationed at the right of mission starting point, at the mine's upper facility. They stand at different side of the facility, and will attack from both sides when they spot the player. It is notable that the LC with canister cannon is equipped with flares, so missiles will be less effective in this fight. Two guard mechs and two MTs are also in the facility, with one MT armed with grenade cannons and may cause unexpected damage if left active.

The mission is completed after all 3 enforcement crafts are destroyed.
