Chapter 6694 Evolving Alien Counters
The battle had begun in earnest.
Warships and mechs from both sides began to shoot at each other.
While the melee mechs of the human defenders had yet to go into action, they had already begun to maneuver across the battlefield in the hopes of finding favorable angles of attacks.
The native aliens did not underestimate the threat of these melee mechs. If left unchecked, these primitive machines wielding swords, spears or axes could debilitate a lot of alien assets with the help of their space suppression modules.
In order to prevent these melee mechs from weakening transphasic energy shields and disrupting the operation of warp drives with impunity, the native aliens had to stop or stall them no matter what it took!
The native alien armada had spent much of the last few weeks shipping in large amounts of phasefighters from afar. Many of them were piloted by alien conscripts that possessed little to no experience in actual warfare, but their hardware was largely superior due to the more copious use of phasewater technology.
The latest generation of phasefighter models especially stood out compared to the older models!
The human defenders quickly noticed that the phasefighters reacted faster and more responsibly to different threats.
The strike craft had also become more accurate even as they made faster and more complicated maneuvers.
Their cannon hardpoints were able to angle their barrels at greater angles, and the automated tracking systems had become significantly more effective than before! While a mech controlled by a professional mech pilot was usually able to throw off the Al-driven tracking systems for a while, it became exponentially harder to do so when two or more phasefighters were working hard to gun down the human machine! These situations happened more often than not because the alien phasefighters easily outnumbered the total number of human mechs that remained in the star system!
The earlier rounds of skirmishing had caused both sides to suffer losses. However, despite the fact that the native aliens lost more small craft than the humans, the invaders were much better able to absorb these losses.
