The Mech Touch

Chapter 6678 Investing in Melkor

While the human mech forces tried to delay the advance of the native aliens as much as possible, they ultimately only produced moderate results.

Many alien phasefighters went down, but the defending side also lost a higher amount of mechs than expected.

It became abundantly clear that the latest wave of reinforcements from the front consisted of phasefighters of a better generation than the ones that had been widely used in the recent past.

The technological progression of phasefighters was much faster than with mechs due to how little the native aliens initially cared about small craft.

While that caused the aliens to begin at a lower starting point, it was very easy for them to catch up to mechs and quickly implement all kinds of nifty technological solutions.

The other mech forces that had been sent to scout enemy phasefighters and skirmish them whenever possible suffered badly whenever they came across the most modern phasefighters!

People began to voice a lot of concerns when the mech forces gradually returned to the main stronghold planet.
