Agile has been identified through recon reports as the fourth member of the so-called "Inner Circle," and appears to be a secondary tactical coordinator and recruiter.

He has proven a particular thorn in the side to the Shinobi Unit, who have lost members to his blade. Do not attempt capture; Agile will take any quarter, any opportunity, as a chance to escape. | Agile has been identified through recon reports as the fourth member of the so-called "Inner Circle," and appears to be a secondary tactical coordinator and recruiter.

| - | 2nd Reconnaissance has suggested that above the supposed "Inner Circle," there is a powerful commander leading the coordinated Maverick attacks. Evidence so far has been tenuous at best, though trackers have reported a massive Maverick-led development of a major battle weapon which would require the compatible control of a single powerful Reploid. One such tracker was apparently felled by a Beam Sabre, possibly discrediting these rumors. The "Inner Circle" appears to organize and operate the coordinated Mavericks on a level sufficient to suggest no overarching leader, though some recent discoveries on various raids do hint at a well-informed, complex and sinister intellect preparing to deal a massive blow to Hunter Command. | + | 2nd Reconnaissance has suggested that above the supposed "Inner Circle," there is a powerful commander leading the coordinated Maverick attacks.

| + | '''Support:''' Chill Penguin (13th-17th), Sigma (Commanding, 17th), X (17th)<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | Major armed Mechaniloid has gone Maverick in the city center. Destroy all subunits, then coordinate with Commander Sigma against the main target. Ensure no additional Maverick activity.<br> | ||

| + | |||
| + | Heavy damage, Mechaniloid terminated, supporting Mavericks identified and retired. MH029 Vile noted on site, suspected of Maverick activity and detained for assessment. Mechaniloid debris missing, one subunit unaccounted for. | ||
| + | |||
| + | '''Personnel Report'''<br> | ||
| + | Zero, I know you're good friends with X. I'd like to you talk to him, help him in training. His confidence is... inconsistent. Those missed shots today could have been catastrophic. I'm certain that with encouragement he'll realize a potential that few can match. Let me know how he progresses; I think when he's ready, a solo mission might force him to confront his fears and clear that hurdle.<br> | ||

| + | '''Target:''' Breakwing Jay<br> | ||
| + | '''Support:''' Overdrive Ostrich (7th)<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | Commercial supersonic test range has been attacked by a Maverick force. Eliminate leader and retire all Maverick presence and prevent the launch or seizure of any supersonic vessels. Target is B-class in closed environment but expected to have heavy support, may be graded A-class or higher in open-air engagement.<br> | ||

| + | '''Personnel Report Enclosed'''<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | Heavy damage, one vessel stolen, five supersonic jets and two supersonic stealth missiles destroyed. Heavier Maverick presence than anticipated due to "Inner Circle" involvement. Target retired, small Maverick contingent escaped with supersonic carrier. | ||
| + | |||
| + | '''Personnel Report'''<br> | ||
| + | MH055 Overdrive Ostrich sustained severe damage in the line of duty. Lifesaver assessment shows repair possible, but damaged flight systems cannot be replaced. MH055 processed for honorable discharge with first-class commendation. Please forward appropriate files to Hunter Command and 7th Air Cavalry commander for debriefing and processing. | ||

| + | '''Personnel Report Enclosed'''<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | Damage minimal, no shipments lost. Hostile activity mostly Mechaniloids developed by Dr. Jim. One Maverick retired, arrived onsite too late to prevent single casualty. Bodyguard 'Shield Sheldon' appears to have been origin of Maverick concerns. Motive for contacting Hunters unknown. Subject was profiled by Reploid R&D as a potential S-Class and treated with extreme prejudice. | ||
| + | |||
| + | '''Personnel Report'''<br> | ||
| + | MH093 Squid Adler logged personal objections to incomplete profiling of subject. Concerns of possible bias were noted, but evidence of Maverick status was clear and S-Class grade was accurate. MH093 Squid Adler has resigned his commission in protest. Please forward appropriate files to Hunter Command and 6th Marine Armada commander for debriefing and processing. | ||

| + | All Hunters scramble! A mass defection has crippled several units and resulted in riots and devastation across the city.<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | Sigma is leading the defectors.<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | We have lost communication with several units. Some captive Mavericks have escaped. The "Inner Circle" have appeared and seem to be following Sigma. Hunt down the traitor immediately and retire him with extreme prejudice. We must not allow the Maverick leadership to escape - the consequences of Sigma commanding a large-scale revolt with so many of our forces defected or destroyed would be dire.<br> | ||

| + | |||

| + | '''Personnel Report'''<br> | ||
| + | MH100 X has expressed a desire to join the fight against the Maverick armies. Qualifies to retire B-class and lower targets. Shows potential, but largely untried and unskilled. Recommend assigning limited portfolio of targets based on current needs, resources of the 17th. Prioritize ex-Hunters; full profiles will increase mission viability. Assign navigator, two Lifesaver units. | ||
