Wanzer (pronounced Vanzer) - short for Wandrung Panzer, German meaning 'walking tank'
One final note: Don't forget to change your defensive types (Anti-I, Anti-P, etc..) for each mission to get the best defensive preformance out of your wanzer. Use the enemy info (at the beginning of each mission
(in the walkthrough) to determine which is best.
The game begins at an USN Alaska radiation laboratory base. A wanzer and a freight hauler blast their way out of the base with a large container. The USN base forces spring into action, but a quickly
cut down by bomber. A carrier arrives and picks up the container and takes off. This FMV is the
coolest Front Mission FMV I have ever seen! The game starts at Kirishima Heavy Industries ,br>testing facility where Kazuki Takemura is testing a wanzer.
JDF Okinawa Base
The first menu that will pop up will be a name menu. There are 3 selections.
The first one is enter your first
name, the second is to select your last name and the third option is to confirm your selection.
To just use the default name, choose the last one (Kazuki Takemura). The scientist now has Kazuki
run
the tests on the SHUNYO Wanzer. Mission 1 Your Units : 1 Enemy Units: 2 Attackers Notes: 1.) This mission is just a tutorial mission split up into 2 sections. The first is part is attacking a
single wanzer. The wanzer does not fight back, so its quick and easy.
2.) The second half is attacking another wanzer that fights back. It is pretty easy as well. It all just
gets you familiar with the weapon systems which
are almost exactly like previous Front Mission games.
Kazuki will next be talking to another pilot, Ryogo and the testing engineer in the office after the mission. They all begin discussing the JDF's forces and it's recent increase. They even discuss
what happened in Front Mission 2! Next the location menu will appear where you can talk to Ryogo
or the scientist Koike. Before you do anything, save your game incase you decide to play the other
storyline. After talking to both of them you talk to Ryogo again. He asks you to with him to deliver
some construction wanzers. This is where you choose which storyline to play. You have an option to
play 2 different ones. Choose the first one (go with him) and you go with him and play thestory line
with Emma. Choose the second one (don't go with him) to play the story line with Kazuki's sister Alisa.
