＜Introduction to "Boundary Warfare Machine: Gokkou no Souki".
After the end of the Hokuriku front, a new land for the Japanese people was created, governed by the New Japan Cooperation Organization.
However, this did not dramatically improve the situation surrounding Japan.
The effective control of the various powers over the country continued, and the oppression of the Japanese people, though lessened, continued.
The same was true of the isolated islands in the South Sea.
The Oceania Army was in effective control of the island, and the resistance organization "Hinukan" was resisting them.
Then, the North American forces attack, aiming to take over the isolated island.

Mecha] [Appearance

Proto Goyou

The latest prototype of MAILeS, developed from the basic structure of the "Byakuchi" developed by Brenzon. It is equipped with a blade-type antenna on its head.
It was developed with the aim of expanding the range of its operations in local warfare, and uses an attachment system that makes it easy to change its armament and equipment. Some of its armaments have been customized by its passenger, Jin Misawa. Its on-board AI is Lambda.

■Goyo Custom

MAILeS developed by inheriting the basic structure of "Byakuchi" developed by Brenzon.
Like the proto-Goyou, it uses an attachment system that allows easy replacement of armament and equipment, and is also being mass-produced. Compared to the proto-Goyo, the head, arms, and knees have a simpler structure and equipment. The passenger is Ibuki Chinen. Its on-board AI is Yamapi.

Dreadnoughtus

An AMAIM transport vehicle used by Jin Misawa.
It can transport the fuselage and various types of attached armaments at a time. Its attachment system makes it easy to mount armaments, and it can attack with a Gatling gun and other weapons, as well as disrupt with a smoke discharger.

Aaron Rhino (Grady exclusive machine)

This aircraft belongs to the North American Alliance. The latest aircraft of the North American Alliance has been modified for Major Grady Ellison.
The special thruster unit in the shoulder section has a higher output than that of ordinary machines.
The rifle is a short-barrel type, making it more suitable for close combat.

Aaron Rhino

A machine belonging to the North American Alliance. While inheriting some features from the Brady Fox, it is more maneuverable thanks to an improved onboard AI and a new shape for the back hover unit.
When searching for enemies, the cover of the camera part opens, and the three lenses move individually to search a wide area.

Van Yip Zinger

Belonging to the Allied Forces of Oceania, this is one of AMAIM's larger models, but it can move at high speed on four wheels using the wheels attached to its legs. The armament, which was a weak point of the old model, has been strengthened: the arm shields have improved defense, and the Gatling gun and flame thrower have improved offensive capabilities.
