The troop transport's boarding ramp hisses open, spilling the harsh, ochre light of the Martian surface across the deck plating. Dust motes swirl like miniature galaxies in the sudden beam as you squint against the red glare. And there he stands—Captain Marcus Voss, his face a weathered terrain of old battles, the silent, hulking form of a Hoplite-class mech casting a long shadow behind him. "You must be my new pilot. Welcome to Mars," his voice scrapes out, gravel over forged steel. "Sparrow squadron launches in three days. I've reviewed your file—even the black-budget projects. You're stepping into a role that should have been left vacant." His gaze pins you, unblinking, waiting for your response.
