Mecha operation class

**Mecha operators**, also called **mecha warrior-masters**. are those who pilot mecha. Because of the physical, mental, and spiritual toll operating these weapons of mass destruction takes, an operator can only pilot a mecha they are on the same class as (or below). Jumping up levels can, in fact, cause grievous harm and potential death.

"Mecha warrior" refers to operators of Advanced mecha and below, while "mecha master" refers to operators who pilot Special-class mecha and above.

Mecha warriors are further divided into trainee mecha warriors, junior mecha warriors, intermediate mecha warriors, and advanced mecha warriors. The corresponding mecha they pilot are trainee mecha, junior mecha, intermediate mecha, and advanced mecha.

Mecha masters are divided into Special-class mecha masters, Ace mecha masters, Imperial mecha masters, and God-class mecha masters. Special-class mecha masters and Ace mecha masters both pilot special-class mecha that are collectively designated "Ace mecha" in the military. Although, the mecha piloted by Special-class mecha masters have the word ‘secondary’ or ‘substitute’ added to the title. Imperial mecha masters pilot Imperial mecha, and God-class mecha masters operate God-class mecha.

Imperial mecha warriors and above are beings that can decide the outcome of a war. As such, each country has agreements binding them, which will not be broken unless under special circumstances.

### Advanced

Advanced operators are in the last stage before reaching the title of "mecha master."

### Special-class

Special-class operators, aka "substitute Aces," are pilots who begin to display signs of personalization. The skills and techniques of operators would shift from the original regulated movements into their own personalized style of operation. However, it is still unpolished and their style has not been properly developed yet. This is the difference between Special-class mecha warriors and Ace mecha masters.

In the military, Special-class mecha were lumped together under the term Ace mecha, with only the words ‘secondary’ or ‘substitute’ added to the title. After a period of baptism in war, Special-class operators would gradually form and perfect their individual operation style and techniques, which would allow them to officially ascend to Ace operator status. This was why they were called ‘substitute Aces’ by the ground forces.

Advanced mecha can only accept standard commands, while Ace mecha provided too much freedom in it's controls. For those who are in between those levels; still trying to find their style of operation, Special-class is most befitting. In order for these exceptional control seedlings to smoothly break through and advance to Ace mecha master status, much dedicated research and design by several generations of mecha engineers finally created this sort of Special-class mecha to bridge the gap between Advanced mecha and Ace mecha. So, Special-class mecha are not completely outside the scope of standardized mecha, but at the same time, they also possessed some individualistic characteristics like Ace mecha.

### Imperial

Outside of war Imperial operators are outlawed on the battlefield. Despite this, there are Imperial operators hidden among all nations' militaries[*citation needed*] usually disguised as Ace mecha operators.

#### Half-step Imperial stage

Half step Imperial stage had the word ‘Imperial’ in it but it was actually closer to Ace stage. This was just the highest level of Ace and the person was just half a step away from Imperial stage. However, this half step couldn’t be taken easily. Some people might be unable to take that half step in their entire life. No matter how hard a person worked, if they couldn’t break through the Imperial barrier, his piloting skills would forever be stuck at the peak of Ace stage.[*citation needed*]

#### Pseudo Imperial

The operators has already entered the Imperial stage. Their mecha piloting ability hovered between half-step Imperial and Imperial stage. As long as they were given more time to get used to the operations, they would be able to stabilize their controls and become a real Imperial operator. During battles, a pseudo Imperial operator had a real chance to become a real Imperial operator. It’s only a matter of time for them to become Imperial operators. This was the difference between half step Imperial and pseudo Imperial.[*citation needed*]

### God-class

*Main article: God-class mecha masters*
God-class operators are a fearsome and threatening existence. The Huaxia Federation can possess such a vast expanse of land and distant boundaries because the Federation has the highest number of God-class operators among the neighboring countries.
