[edit] Plot

Aurelia is a peaceful nation located on the southern edge of the Osean Continent. Cold climate and vast underground resources have kept Aurelia out of war and conflicts for many decades. Aurelia is surrounded by Leasath in the northwest and Antarctica, much further south. The area of both Aurelia and Leasath are unknown.

In 2020, however, the neighbor of Aurelia, Leasath, after suffering through a long civil war (in which Aurelia played a role in by supporting an enemy faction), launched an invasion on Aurelia. To protect the nation, the Aurelian armed forces launched their top squadron, Gryphus to repel the attacks and maintain air-superiority over Aurelian airspace.

Leasath using advanced technology such as the Gliepnir, the Flying fortress with an active camouflage system. Though the flying fortress has a weakness due to infrared emissions from the power plants of the super weapon, which may become a target to infrared-guided missiles. The fortress was destroyed by Gryphus, other friendly air force squadrons and ground fire during the war.

[edit] Area

Aurelia and Leasath are on the South Osean Continent.
