Stage 7 takes place one month after the events of stage 6. Presumably, the Einhander pilot retreated to an uninhabited part of Earth, and prepared for a final assault on the Moon. They are then contacted by Hyperion, who orders them to surrender, as they are committing treason, but they refuse, and engage the Moon fighters before destroying Hyperion. It breaks apart as it falls through the Earth atmosphere. The epilogue then reveals that with both sides now disabled, they are forced to make peace. The Einhänder pilot’s name and deeds, however, are quickly forgotten, except for the veterans of the war that survived.
Stage 7 features a modified Einhander with some different physics:
- Moving more than a small amount will cause your ship to drift in that direction briefly.
- Gravity-based weapons (Grenade) will travel in a straight line.
- The manipulator will no longer bend based on your movement.
Enemies[]
EOS UFG Mk. IX[]
In the first part of Stage 7, you are attacked by 20 unmanned fighters, which share a similar ability as Astraea-type Einhanders to operate two gunpods at once. S. Bonuses can be earned by destroying the red variations of them.
Interceptor UP Mk. II[]
While fighting Hyperion, it can deploy a swarm of drones which rearrange themselves and fire lasers at your position.
Hyperion UCS Mk. XII[]
The final boss of the game, it is difficult to destroy because of it's relatively small core and constant motion. It can also temporarily retreat and send another EOS UFG at you, or deploy Interceptors.
