The battle was going well for the human coalition.
Though the V'gahnt-Zezne was able to rely on her triple energy shield layers to stay in the fight, none of the other warships enjoyed the same degree of protection.
The human pioneering groups quickly developed better methods to breach the segmented energy shields that many alien warships traditionally relied upon to stay alive.
As the formidable ace mechs and expert mechs on the battlefield rapidly whittled down the amount of active cruisers, destroyers and frigates by leveraging their distinct advantages, the human mech forces no longer experienced as much pressure as before.
The fight became easier and easier for the mechs to fight as the amount of powerful warship armaments firing in their direction continued to drop with the passage of time.
Many mech pilots started to relax a bit as they no longer felt as if they were one step away from disaster.
