Welcome to Gaia! ::

For quite a while, Andreis had been dormant as it where. Rejecting human contact while he worked heavily on his mech for the upcoming battle. In order to equip the Raven 3 with an extra-orbital thruster kit, all the turbines, engines and engine controls had to be removed or changed up to make room for the kit while not overloading the Raven 3's reactor. All the time had payed off though, because now Andreis had a quick apply system where he could attach the turbines rather readily and detatch them rather quickly too. At the same time he also had gotten a Space travel thruster kit and retro-fitted it to the cradel for the Raven 3's jet engine kit. Also adding some small control thrusters to the calfs in place of weapons.
In his overworked state, Andreis forgot to get going on the battle updates and they left for the battle without him.. this was problematic. The Raven 3 was ready now and he had spent some money on replacement missles from the large ones to give him 20 medium range missles to work with. The last upgrade he had done, though, was to add a heat blade to the left fore arm that could flip out for close combat needs.

With a deep sigh, Andreis, now in a space suit rushed over to the loading crane where a crew from the MMA was helping him out in clamping his mech in it's blow away casing to the shuttle, currently looking pregnant with it's atmospheric exiting fuel tank on the front belly.
In about 10 minutes it was all done and Andreis, still heaving breathes climbed into the shuttle that was being taxied out to the launch ramp.
Anxiously he waited while the shuttle was moved from the hangar out to the launch area.

Description:
The Raven 3 is an Aeries based mech with large, but now widened and flattened shoulder mounted main air intakes, smaller air intakes under arms in humanoid rib area and behind the head/above the cockpit. The head is a sunken in half oval with a search eye bleow it pointing front and with various sensory equipment in the head. The entry to the cockpit is beneath the head and by the air intake behind the head(The head moves pivotes foreward and parts of the neck area move to allow entry), thus it has an odd shaped torso with a nearly pointed chest and semi-aerodynamic design. The waist pivots backwards slightly to accomodate for semi-aerodynamic folding back of the legs. The calves reverse joint and fold up partially sunken in behind the calves which point down backwards and hold down pointing fins. Engine pods mounted on long wings are attatched to the lower torso above the waste towards the back and have 2 rails each on the bottom for either A. missle pods or B. Bombs or Fuel. The engine pods at the end of each wing are small stabalizing pods for high manueverability in flight.
The entire mech is black and navy blue with a red search eye and yellow symbols on the navy shoulder armor.

Andreis has ended the battle simulation and is currently on board the Astral Hawk, awaiting orders.

In the middle of unloading the Commando, the crew of the carrier truck recieve a sudden message and stop unloading the Commando.
QUickly they start to reload the commando back to its position on the truck and get ready to head for the Repair and Outfitter shop.
