Walkthrough/Playthrough/Let's Play
Description:
The Outer Rim Coalition is a rebel faction that opposes the Earth Systems Alliance's occupation of Infernis Prime. Although the rebels manage to recruit a mysterious android and a blackmarket combat robot to their side, the ESA uses the Raxion II incident as justification to further crack down on rebel groups, placing them in a precarious situation. Just what is the ESA planning to do with the Molarian civilization's artifacts? Also, is time itself still FUBAR?

0:00 Recap
0:18 Moletown
If you step on rats, you'll get their meat.
You can find a shop to buy robot equipment, will will hopefully close the gap between T-17 and the regular units.
In the dance hall, one of the NPCs will pay you to deliver rat corpses. However, the NPC outside the building is the one exacerbating the rat problem and will trade you three old rat corpses in exchange for one of your better corpses. The NPC inside the dance hall cannot tell the difference. However, this isn't actually the optimal way to get money.
In the casino, the guard won't let you meet Zurkt unless you pay 100k. You can either use the casino games or use the rat trading system.
15:54 Meeting Zurkt
You learn that Zurkt can't help us until we save his associate, Relnor, whose mind is trapped in the bank's cyberspace while trying to get credits for Zurkt. We also have to use a salami slicing program to get the credits transferred.
19:16 Bank of the Alliance Cyberspace
In the cyberspace portions, you play as Chronus and Zeron, but their stats and skill trees are different from the typical real world unit.
Relnor found a strange transaction from the ESA and Interstellar Supply Corporation that involves over 1 trillion credits. This was to excavate a very important relic.
27:36 Boss: CIC Defense Protocol
The boss has only single-target attacks and self-healing. Meanwhile, you can stun the boss to get extra turns for healing.
30:52 Bank of the Alliance Cyberspace
Kern's digital avatar shows up, but the team logs out in time.
32:24 Relnor's Avatar
Although we rescued Relnor's digital avatar, his body is dead, so we have to leave him in Chronus for now.
36:50 Blackjack Farming
Turns out this is the most efficient way to grind money, as long as you save scum. I decided to get Temporal Accelerator for my characters in order to get a speed advantage. Turns out Max Power doesn't matter when skill cost scales to Max Power anyways.
40:35 Operations Center
The mainframe isn't actually malfunctioning, so our cover story as maintenance workers will be blown very quickly. The party quickly makes their way to the mainframe to plug Chronus in.
43:37 Mainframe Cyberspace
You get to see some flashbacks of the ESA leaders. They apparently failed to stop the ORC from gaining power in other timelines and this led to the Purge, which is why they want to use the Inhibitor to control a powerful Molarian ship. They also used the Zhelnanov Array to place Kern's digital avatar everywhere. Zero believes the Advena are manipulating the ESA.
The ESA plan to stage another false flag operation, where they'll hold a conference full of galactic leaders, only to kill all of them and frame the ORC.
Unfortunately, Kern shows up and turns into an unbeatable boss fight. He copies Zeron's data, which means he now has everything he needs to use the Inhibitor and the Supercarrier. That also means he has no reason to spare Chronus anymore.
55:06 Operations Center
The party sets a bunch of bombs and runs to the roof, but Alice Cromwell intercepts them.
1:01:53 Boss: Deputy Direction Alice Cromwell (Very Hard)
I decided to try the highest difficulty because of how stacked my party is. She still almost killed me on her first attack, but she didn't get a chance to do another.
1:03:43 Fleeing
Unfortunately, Alice uses Electronic Gamma Augmentation to scramble Chronus's systems.
1:04:57 Chronus-13's Neural Net
Chronus cannot self-repair itself, but maybe Zeron and Relnor can help it with that.
