Lisa and her unit investigate the Alordesh Army’s movements for the regular army.

Gameplay

Building on the foundation of Front Mission, the game introduces expanded tactical systems. More weapons have range-based attacks, terrain affects accuracy and counterattacks, and most weapons use ammunition. Its notable Action Point and Honor systems further distinguish it from its predecessor.
