The battlefield was a symphony of destruction—Flashes of plasma, Streaks of railgun fire, Shimmering trails of blade-light as mechs clashed with insectoids in every direction.
From behind, the human fleet delivered heavy supporting fire. Though the flagship of this expedition was a dual-class research vessel with limited armament, the broader fleet was a different story altogether.
Battleships. Destroyers. Frigates.
While insectoid vessels typically relied on overwhelming numbers, the human fleet boasted superior engineering, precision, and raw firepower.
In one-on-one duels, a single human warship could go toe-to-toe with two—sometimes even four—enemy vessels and emerge victorious.
Their guns roared across the void, providing the mecha units with overwhelming fire support, blanketing the enemy flanks and backlines in a storm of light and death.
But the humans had more than just firepower. They had innovation.
