The mission goes horribly wrong, ending with Kalen's capture by Driscoll, the sinister USN commander and obligatory evil nemesis. The game then picks up a year later, when Roid is recruited by the mysterious and Olson, who puts Roid in charge of Canyon Crow, a special OCU-funded strike team. Nothing especially compelling, quite honestly. It's a step up from Beat the Evil Demon King, but it's still about as ambiguous as the Mortal Kombat movie. Along the way, you meet up with other Panzer pilots, most of whom join Canyon Crow, eventually swelling your group from the initial three members to roughly twenty fighting machines.
Peewee drives a truck.
Peewee looks really, really stupid. He's a bizarrely obese little putz with a little beret on. The music in the game is generally mediocre, but the sound effects are considerably better. The flamethrower in particular is a triumph for the SFC's sound chip, sounding better than any similar effect I've heard in a game before or since. This author ended up outfitting most of his Panzers with flamethrowers whenever possible, regardless of utility, just because they sounded really nifty.
