Alright, I figure Battle of Trias for Blade will have to take place PBP, because of one reason: his turns take FOREVER to do.
We've already gone over that Blade will support the Sacred Kingdom's request in launching an attack against the Imperial military bases north of the city. The Sacred Kingdom provides you some rough information, along with coordinates to the eastern side of the Imperial Base (positions ranging from 1000ft where the Base's Lockdown Ends out to 1mile from it).

Appearance wise, the base spans half a mile in radius and is simply filled with a lot of large utilitarian buildings of either metallic or concrete construction. Four large parking lots are located in the central areas of the base which were filled with Armored Combat Vehicles. The base is surrounded by a double layer of steel fencing, with guard towers and no doubt hidden automated turrets scattered around the perimeter.

(Buff up and teleport when you're ready)

It's dark, but you can see the base in front of you illuminated by a large number of lights, particularly the vehicle parking areas in the center of the base and it's perimeter. There was one guard tower every a few hundred feet between the two layers of the perimeter fencing.

(start round by round combat)

(you're currently 1,000ft from the base)

Blade mentally commands his Astral Construct horde to attack the closest 2 guard towers. The translucent hulking ectoplasmic forms shift invisible and their lethal blades extend from their fists before they charge at the towers. He then turns his attention to the well lit area at the center of the base and thinks Time for a big bang... as three bursts of powerful sonic erupt among the strange things parked there.
Then, the scanner orb on the mech's head swivels towards a smaller building and fires an array of three beams into it's side. Finally, another three bursts of sonic energy erupt among the strange objects in the middle of the base as the mech flies 180' Eastwards, starting to circle around the base.
(Standard Action: use one Energy Ball cannon, 3 sonic Energy Balls on the Parking Area. 1020 Sonic Damage to targets in three 60' radius bursts, Ref DC49 for half.)
(Swift Action: use Tri-disintegration Ray: 3 disintegration rays, each dealing 1205 damage and/or obliterating a 30' cube of matter)
(Partial Action: duplicate Standard Action, but hit a different area)

Even before the attacks managed to reach their targets the sirens began to screech... all already the camp it could be heard. The windows of the various buildings quickly began lighting up one by one.

The sound bursts resounded across the large parking lot in the center area, and about fifteen of the vehicles that were parked there exploded up almost instantaneously as their nulls were shattered by the wave of sonic energy traveling outwards. Meanwhile the rest of the vehicles quickly began powering up, as the lights on them flickered on, and upon careful inspection one could notice them rising to float above the ground.

The three disintegration rays impacts the side of the building and suddenly dissolves three large cubes of concrete, glass, and steel. The building, suddenly missing almost all of it's one side, began to collapse after too many support beams were taken out. Although there wasn't many occupants, Blade could see a few people inside the building for a mere second before the remainder of the building toppled in on them.

All along the perimeter, about one every three hundred feet or so, at least two dozen pop-up turrets began to deploy from their concealed positions on the ground. They quickly swung around and begun to unload fire into the Edge's hull with their rapid fire plasma guns, except the stream of energy bolts didn't seem to be affecting Blade's mech at all.

A large number of huge ground level hatches, once camouflaged by netting and grass, were opened, spewing forth over two dozen missiles which sped towards the skies, but then began to readjust their courses to home in towards the Edge.

EDIT: About fifteen vehicles, not two dozen, I forgot Blade's energy balls are double twinned and must target same place.

Blade watches as the strange tubular objects topped with cones shoot out of their concealed launchers and begin to fly towards him. What in the nine hells are those things? he thought as he fired another tri-disintegration ray at a second building, aiming for the same area he hit on the previous one. He then calls forth another 2 sets of 3 blasts of sonic energy on the vehicles that were powering up in the parking area. A panel slides open on one shoulder, revealing 15 holes out of which shoot 15 missiles of sonic energy, which rocket towards one of the shorter buildings and impact into it.

Blades Actions:
(Standard Action: use one Energy Ball cannon, 3 sonic Energy Balls on the Parking Area. 1020 Sonic Damage to targets in three 60' radius bursts, Ref DC49 for half. )
(Swift Action: use Tri-disintegration Ray: 3 disintegration rays, each dealing 1205 damage and/or obliterating a 30' cube of matter)
(Move Action: move the mech another 180' around the base, angling upwards this time.)

Item Familiar's Actions:

Another surge of sonic energy erupts at the parking area. Curtains of energy flared as those shield you heard about that Imperial vehicles possess tried to reduce the energy. But the sonic blast quickly overcame them and ruptured the hulls of the vehicles in the same manner. Seconds later another twenty or so vehicles exploded in their spots.

The triple disintegration rays went into another building not far from the perimeter, which soon collapsed in a similar manner as the last one. There may or may not have been someone caught its in collapse, but it certainly wasn't many and the building definitely wasn't any kind of barracks, although once again the lights inside were on...

As the 15 energy missiles flew in, more popup turrets scattered within the base opened up with high speed counterfire of energy rays, destroying nearly half the missiles in midair. The remainder ones managed to reach the building and punch more than half dozen holes in its side while blowing out chunks of concrete, which was sent hurling about like shrapnel. However neither the building nor wall caved in from the damage, and from the man-sized holes one could see blood and movement inside the building. There was definitely some people within who suffered casualties from the attack.

The missiles continued to fly in the mech's direction, several of them broke off and homed in after the astral constructs. Huge spherical bursts of plasma soon engulfed the constructs sent out by the mech which had just reached the defensive perimeter of the base, and when the plasmic fire died down none of them were still in existence. Meanwhile about fifteen remaining missiles continued to accelerate towards the Edge.

In the meantime, the perimeter's heavy turrets slowed down their fire, which was still completely being ignored by the mech's enhanced hulls...

Time to deal with those...whatever they are Blade thinks as he turns his attention to the strange objects hurtling towards him. Three bursts of sonic energy erupt among one pair of missiles, and another 3 among a second pair. The scanner orb swivels towards yet another building, and the three rays shoot out once again, slamming into the side of another of the utilitarian structures. A panel on another part of the mech slides open and fifteen more projectiles of sonic energy fly out, this time targetting 5 of the turrets that took out some of the previous missiles. 5 more blobs of ectoplasm emit from various parts of the mech, which fall to the ground and coalesce into 5 more hulking, translucent forms. These ones lack the armblades and invisibility of the previous forms, but have a shimmering psionic field around them and move faster as they take off towards the nearest guard towers.

Blades Actions:
(Standard Action: use one Energy Ball cannon, 3 sonic Energy Balls among one of the pairs of missiles. 1020 Sonic Damage to targets in three 60' radius bursts, Ref DC49 for half. )
(Swift Action: use Tri-disintegration Ray: 3 disintegration rays, each dealing 1205 damage and/or obliterating a 30' cube of matter)
(Move Action: move the mech another 180' around the base, angling upwards this time.)
(Free Action: create 5 more astral constructs. These ones have +8 deflection to AC and a base land speed of 80'. Directing astral constructs to run towards the guard towers.)

( round 3 )

The plasma turrets around the perimeter of the base changed their targets as the ectoplasmic astral constructs dropped onto the ground. Multiple firing webs began to envelope about each construct as a hailstorm of plasma bolts rushed to meet them head on. Explosions soon engulfed the armor of these constructs, and even their endurance could not take the beating of such a heavy barrage. Within mere seconds all five of them ceased to exist.

The three rays impacted another building, which collapsed in the same manner as the two earlier ones. Blade caught the glimpse of a number of beds and at least a dozen men inside before the other walls toppled in around them.

The fifteen missiles from the mech flew in, over half of them were caught by the smaller turret's defensive counterfire and exploded harmlessly in midair, while the remaining ones slammed straight into the same defensive turrets. Explosions quickly obscured them from sight as three of them were instantly shattered by the sonic missiles' impact.

Four of the incoming missiles were destroyed as sonic bursts engulfed them and literally pulverized them in midair. The remaining ones homed in towards the Edge, striking independently as they came into contact or proximity. Despite the bulkiness, the mech maneuvered with surprising agility and insight, and some of the missiles were also deflected at the last moment as if being pushed away by an invisible barrier. However even those who were 'deflected' exploded in proximity just as they were flying past the mech. Bursts of plasmic energy completed engulfed the mech and the air around it, the burning air quickly obscuring Blade's vision through the Edge. However despite the powerful visual effects, the Edge was not shaken at all by the plasma burst missiles.
... the other ones that homed in were a different story. Four of them struck true on the Edge's armor and the force of their explosions rocked the entire mech.
( hit 1 : 82 bludgeoning dmg )
( hit 2 : 103 bludgeoning dmg )
( hit 3 : 105 bludgeoning dmg ) [one of the Edge's energy missile clusters was shattered by the hit]
( hit 4 : 112 bludgeoning dmg )

In the distance near the center of the base (over 4,000ft away), heavily obscured by smoke, light suddenly poured out of a large but very squat building, as if several large gates just about ground level had been opened forth. Several humanoid golem-like machined poured out of them and into the air, barely seen at this distance by the lights on their body, whom quickly dispersed to leave a significant gap (anywhere between 60ft to 150ft, too hard to tell at this distance) space in between one another. These must be the Metaacs the Kingdom people spoke about, and there was four of them, flying full throttle across the open airspace at a speed only the Airindalians could even attempt to match (~3500ft away now).

In the meantime, despite the heavy smoke that obscured the long distance vision into the large parking lots, Blade could see, just barely, that people were now running out of buildings towards the vehicles that were parked there...

EDIT:
In the meantime, even though it's from over three miles away, that pull in magic was still apparent. An array of power bloomed in the skies to the south near the city of Trias, charging up tremendous amounts of magical energy. A war magic spell was being cast...
Bolts and streams of plasma were being sent into the skies, firing webs were formed and explosions flared in the darkness every few seconds... a battle was commencing over the city.

Structural integrity at 89%, Sir. Critical damage to one missile cluster. Whistler reported as Blade fired another salvo of sonic missiles towards another array of defensive cannons, attempting to clear a path for his energy missiles to head into the base. The scanner orb swiveled towards another building and blasts it with another array of disintegration rays as the mech continued to move along the perimeter of the lockdown effect.
Another 5 blobs of ectoplasm emit from various parts of the mech, coalescing into constructs with powerful legs, which then dash at high speed towards the guard towers.
Disable control lines to the disabled cluster, Whistler. Now, for those so called 'Metaacs' Blade thought as his fingers flew over the controls, calling forth 6 blasts of sonic energy among the metaacs, targetting the 2 of them at that seemed closest to Edge and firing a salvo of sonic missiles at one of the other two machines.

Blades Actions:
(Standard Action: use one Energy Ball cannon, 3 sonic Energy Balls among one of the pairs of missiles. 1020 Sonic Damage to targets in three 60' radius bursts, Ref DC49 for half. )

The missile fire and turret counterfire continued, and another two turrets were destroyed by the missiles they were unable to intercept ( most of the turrets aren't really close enough to each other for the missile to distribute out ). While at the same time the turrets on the perimeter quickly cut down the new astral constructs created by the Edge.

The triple-disintegration ray struck yet another building. Similar to the last one, the lights within this building showed most beds and troops busy arming themselves, most of whom were just about to rush out the door, before the walls collapsed over atop them. A number of the soldiers inside however did escape, either by running out the door in the meantime or by flying out through the space where the walls were disintegrated.

The air trembled in the wave of the sonic bursts, and the metaacs' images were distorted for a mere second. However even as the view re-stabilized once again, Blade notices the Metaacs did not seem to be affected even in the slightest by the attack. Tiny turrets built into the Metaac's heads then opened energy fire into the oncoming missiles, which managed to destroy several of them. However even the ones that gotten through the defensive fire never made impact, as they were seemingly vanished the moment before contact could be made. In the meantime, the metaacs continued to close in towards the Edge at an impossibly fast speed ( range : ~500ft ) while spreading outwards towards the Edge's two sides as if trying to flank it from both sides ( maintaining about at least 90ft from each other ). With a simple motion of their arms, the blades folded back on the right arm of each Metaac shifted into attack position and a bluish energy film grew to coat its surface.

At that moment, Blade noticed that ten assault-mages suddenly appeared out of thin air about 200ft behind the metaac, hovering at an altitude. The leader yelled a simple "Fire!" and six emerald green rays shot from their wands towards the Edge ( AS-spellcraft : Dimensional Anchor ). Despite Blade's evasive action, three of the rays managed to make contact. At the same time two others cast a different spell ( AS-spellcraft : Solid Fog ) and the Edge suddenly found itself stuck within dense fog, all vision completely obscured and unable to see anything outside.
"Strike! let's get out of here!" Blade could hear from one of the mages.
A moment later, the Edge's touchsight sensors could no longer detect the presence of those mages.

Blade swore loudly as he slammed a large red button labelled with a gas cloud coming out of a dragon's rear on a control panel. The mech clenched its fist, grunted, suddenly made a very loud noise, similar to the sound of gas being expelled through a fleshy orifice and then 300' cone of black acid shot out of its lower back, accompanied with a large blast of noxious fumes expelled by a powerful blast of wind, blasting away the solid fog. What do you know, it worked. Whistler, remind me why I made that feature. I don't know, Sir. Whistler replied as two large panels on the mechs chest opened, revealing an array of small holes. "Well, here goes nothing," Blade said aloud as he activated the weapon stored there. 30 crystal orbs shout of the mech, each one speeding towards a metaac as the panels covering the weapon closed.

Blades Actions:

(Swift Action: belt of battle for extra full round action)

( round five )

The unrelenting firing webs of the perimeter defense turrets cut up the Astral Constructs once again...

The 30 crystal orbs converged upon one of the metaacs, which quickly went into evasive action, dodging left and swerving right. Shields flared upon its surface as the crystal balls impacted the defensive energy barrier before contacting the vehicle. Whether any of the orbs manage to drill pass the shields was unclear, as the entire area was soon engulfed by crystal splinters flying about in every direction. Despite the carnage and onslaught, the metaac seems to have withstood the attack for a number of seconds, before it blew up in a ball of plasmic fire when the shard storm was near its end.

The other three remaining metaacs scattered out, then turned about and converged on the Edge from three different directions. However, their coordination was somewhat off and the three-way simultaneous attack was instead carried out in separate steps - probably a sign that these pilots were much greener than their tactics required them to be. The first of them came head on, and the Edge's massive arm when out to counter (AoO), striking one of them on their left flank. The sheer force of the impact seems to have dislocated the left joint. Still, two of the deadly and massive blades drove home into the mech's armor, cutting through the adamantine with relative ease, and both the force shield and the deflective aura seemed to be malfunctioning within close proximity to the Metaacs. The right side metaac made a particularly lucky impact, as the right arm's Energy Ball launched was crushed under the blade's attack.

( attack 1: 76 slashing damage, ignore Edge's DR, plasma-damage negated )
( attack 2: 80 slashing damage, ignore Edge's DR, plasma-damage negated )[ destroyed : Energy Ball launcher ]

In the distance, a second wave of missiles was sent into the air by the various underground missile batteries scattered across the perimeter and within the base... this one even more massive than the last, numbering about forty in total.

Whistler, get ready to go, we aren't sticking around much longer, and lets destroy some more of those machines too Blade thought-spoke as he turned his attention to the already damaged metaac while 3 more bursts of sonic energy erupted in the parking area.. He unleashes a flurry of punches with Edge's massive adamantine fists upon the machine. Another set of disintegration rays emit from the scanner orb and fire towards another building, this time one of the single story buildings. A panel slides open long enough to fire 15 sonic missiles towards a pair of the missiles that were just launched.

Blade's Actions:
(Standard Action: Activate Indomitability on Blade using his Leather Jacket)
(Swift Action: belt of battle for extra full round action)
(Move Action: )
