"200 clicks bearing 270, aye Lead" Jim responded as they headed to the crater where they'd be squaring off. Its been too damn long since I had any fun flying Jim grinned as he tore over the lunar surface, flying nap of the earth at full military power.

Once they arrived at the crater, Jim punched up the comm. "Alright Karl, we're here. You ready for the hurricane?" he asked as he waited for Karl to signal him to start the exercise.

Karl chuckled over the com, "Alright, let's do it." Karl fired his thrusters, easily going into his dance, jinking right and left repeatedly at full speed, as he came close he fired a single bazooka round and a burst of phalanx fire to test his subordinates reflexes in the new Nemo.

Jim saw Karl break hard left, then right in a classic rocker evasive while sending a stream of fire his way. Grinning savagely, he commed "Not gonna be that easy boss!" as he kicked his Nemo hard to starboard, catching the bazooka shot on his shield while evading the bulk of the vulcans. A few rounds from the light cannons impacted his armor, simulating a degradation, but not causing any significant damage. Glancing down, he saw his shield was down to 68% effectiveness from the direct bazooka impact. OK, this guy was a top gun for the Zekes, better bring the 'A' game flashed through Jim's head as he maintained a series of hard, erratic breaks so Karl couldn't draw an easy bead on him while unleashing the full fury of his weapons suite at the Dias. Jim's eyes tracked the torrent of vulcan rounds and the bright flashes of beam fire as they streaked towards the Dias, hoping for a few solid impacts.

Karl smiled, "I know, just seeing what you can do, not bad for a Feddie, might have given Ryan a run for his money at ranged combat." continuing his dance, evading the beams deftly but still only barely, as the last one sailed past, mere feet from frying his armor he changed tact and broke into a furious charge, as he closed he unleashed a blinding flare and a pair of bazooka shells, one to the right and the other to the left.

Jim watched as Karl weaved in and out of his fire. Despite how ridiculous the war machine looked pirouetting like a ballerina around the fire, Jim couldn't help but be impressed by Karl's skills. Wow... this guy is good. Makes Luger look like a damn nugget he thought as suddenly his optics were overloaded by a flare. Bastard! he spat to himself as the filters and backup optics came online slowly, wasting precious seconds. As his cameras were restored, he was greeted by the sight of another pair of bazooka shells right on top of him. He jammed the stick hard starboard, evading one of the shells. However, the other crashed into his shield, shaking his Nemo from head to to. "Hank the Tank from your side didn't call me the Flying Tiger for nothin'" Jim responded. He saw his shield was down to 38% from that second bazooka impact. That bazooka gives him a nasty edge in ranged combat... time to take it away he realized. He snapped off a few suppressing shots with his rifle as he pushed the throttles to the stops, hitting max burn. Holstering the rifle, he pulled out a saber and closed into melee range, firing his vulcans the whole way. Get through one more bazooka volley and I'll be too close for that damn thing he thought as Karl's Dias grew bigger in his HUD as his Nemo ate up the distance, vulcans spitting torrents of fire the whole way in.

*Alright, let's see if this Tiger has teeth.* Karl thought as he racked his bazooka in favor of his beam saber in his right and a beam pistol in his left he pushed his own throttles to full and came in, side stepping the suppressive shots and taking the vulcan shots without even thinking about it, as he came in he slashed wickedly for the Nemo's shield/ mid-section.

Too slow boss Jim thought, grinning like a hungry wolverine as Karl slashed for his torso with the saber while snapping off a few shots with a dinky little beam pistol. Jim had tuned the OS specifically so his Nemo could dance in close quarters. He silently thanked Ambrose for showing him how to get the extra percentages of performance out of any suit as he fired his verniers, flipping over the pistol volley as he pulled a front flip with his Nemo, then rolling around the saber strike aimed at his midsection. Jim fired his main engines to nullify his momentum, his own saber sweeping for Karl's cockpit as the two suits stood toe-to-toe.

The move was good but not quite fully planned out for either of them, as James dodged the slash he came face first with Karl's Dias as it was still moving at full speed, bowling over the smaller Nemo and sending both tumbling away, quickly righting himself Karl snapped off a pair of shots at the Nemo before charging in again. This time in his dance again, jinking back and forth over and over again, "That was a decent evasion but next time make sure your opponent is the type who'll actually stop.", making himself a near impossible target for all but the best pilots, as he came close he brought in for another sidelong slash but as it came to it's striking point he tucked his arm back in and stabbed instead.

Somewhere far off, a small fighter was floating about; a Core Booster doing recon work and collecting combat data on the two units engaging in the mock fight. From this distance, the Core Booster won't be spotted by the AEUG pilots, while it can still easily keep tabs on them. The fighter pilot quickly analyzed the streams of data coming in from the Minovsky Particle Interference Wave Searcher (MPIWS). The movements, the acceleration levels, and the general performance of both the Rick Dias and Nemo models.

"The engineers really put a lot of thought into them..." he muttered. Mack pulls off his helmet to get a clearer look at the numbers printed on the screen. The Rick Dias was performing quite well for a bulky model, thanks largely in part for its random binders on the back. The Nemo was performing decently as well, though at a lower level than the Dias. "Just some things to take into consideration when the developers try to finish the Type 100..."

Unfortunately, such high performance also meant the execs were right: such durable goods meant that the AEUG might not need to purchase units from them during the long run. The Titans were also rumored to have restarted the Federation's mobile suit development projects, and have begun extensive research on Newtype-operated weaponry at Augusta...

This is where he comes to play. Mack gives his keyboard a few taps to store the data and send them to Anaheim. The Rick Dias was definately ready for limited mass-production, and the Nemo's have proven that they can hang with the Dias to an extent.

The impact with Karl's Dias sent Jim's Nemo into an uncontrolled tumble on all three axis. Christ, what a charlie-fox Jim thought as he struggled with his controls, firing verniers to stop the spinning. He was able to get a reference on Karl's Dias coming in hard with another sweeping attack, jinking like a wild weasel the whole way in, firing his pistol. Luckily, Jim's erratic tumble made him a naturally difficult target, and he was able to take the only shot on target on his shield. Still, that dropped his shield all the way down to 15% left, so it was only good for one more hit. As he finally stabilized his bird, Jim prepped his second saber, palming it but keeping it powered down as he positioned his shield to block the sweep, raising his first saber for a low counterblow. Suddenly, Karl shifted the attack from a slash to a stab. Jim shifted hard and parried with his first saber, but he couldn't deflect the entire blow, and the damn thing impacted hard on his left leg. The computer scored that as a severed leg and cut the power to it. Swearing something fierce, Jim jettisoned his shield, powering up the concealed second saber and bringing it down hard in a series of rapid, fencing-style strikes for Karl's cockpit.

Karl fired his thrusters again, slowly backup as he deftly slapped both of James blades wide before he could get into a striking rhythm but was too late to stop the right blade and smacked the attack into his left shoulder, the computer scored it and sever damage to the verniers and loss of the surrounding armor, the arm worked just fine but he couldn't use the maneuvering abilities of the Dias to their full power anymore. He then fired a beam shot at the Nemo before he could recover and continue to take advantage of Karl's defensive posture, "The HELL is with you feddie's and aiming for the cockpit?", Firing his thrusters again he came in with a series of slashes at the Nemo's chest.

Jim grunted in satisfaction as he finally scored a hit on Karl's shoulder. "Something I picked up from my old boss: always take the one-shot" Jim replied as Karl fumed about Jim's choice of target. Then he grimaced as Karl came back in for another series of strikes, going for his torso. Jim furiously parried as many strikes as he could, but one of them got through his defenses and tagged him in the lower torso, scoring a solid hit and damaging his main engines. Only 80% max thrust now... great. This is getting nasty. I'm as good as he is, but he's got a serious edge in that Dias at everything... Jim thought, furious Karl was winning based on a superior suit. He was right; this is harder than a 1st run GM against a Gelgoog. Jim burned his now-damaged mains at max available power, firing his vulcans right into Karl's camera to try and blind him as he swung one saber high, one low, keeping Karl from blocking them both with one motion.

Karl chuckled as he ducked his head and allowed the armor of the phalanx cover to take the beating, at the same time he sidestepped to his right, avoiding the cross attack only barely using the superior maneuvering that his Random Binders afforded him, he brought his beam pistol to bear at near point blank range and fired, he then came in again from the side, stabbing and slashing with measured attacks.

OK, this ain't fair Jim fumed as Karl caught him on his good leg with that pistol of his, further crippling Jim's ability to maneuver. With that damn Dias he had me edged by at least 10% at the start, and now... Jim knew intellectually that he was going to have to pull something spectacular out of his ass to pull of a win here, but that didn't stop him from trying as Karl slashed in again. Jim pushed the pedals and throttles to the stops and was able to sideslip the slash from Karl by mere inches, but that was enough to record some degradation to his chassis armor. "OK, you're good Karl. If we do this again, I'm gonna have to insist we use the same bird" Jim called out as he considered his options. With both legs out of the fight and his main engines damaged, Jim knew he was going to need to back off to mid-range or he'd get cut to ribbons in close. He reracked he right saber and pulled his rifle back out, breaking away from Karl and unloading a stream of shots from the rifle at his cockpit, his left saber in a guard position, ready to swat away any saber strikes.
