Armed with a reused mercenary registration number to mask their origins, Commander Mason must rebuild his command to locate and defeat his enemies and avenge his father, as well as uncover the secret his father took to his grave.Īs Mason completes missions over time, Nik's Cavaliers' reputation grows and they build up a lance of progressively stronger 'Mechs with veteran pilots. Reduced to just two BattleMechs, Mason and the survivors of the Cavaliers (Ryana Campbell, the operations officer of Nik's Cavaliers whom Mason considers family, and Fahad Arazad, the chief technician) reach out to Sebastian Spears, a high level agent of the company Interstellar Expeditions and a long-term friend of his father who provides assistance in escaping the system. Refusing to divulge the coordinates they seek, Nikolai orders his son to return to base and flee aboard the unit's Leopard-class DropShip, sacrificing his life to ensure their escape.
