Machine Dragon Development Records
There existed two different factions inside those who were developing Machine Dragons based on chasing after the idea of “having absolute destructive force to change the tide of battle in one strike”. This is a record of their development results and newest units.

Machine Dragon Development
Reverse Faction
The main concept of the Reverse Faction is to capture live dragons on the battlefield and use them as weapons. The units themselves have almost no battle capabilities, but they excel at being cost-effective due to their ability to use resources on the field.

For them to obtain great destructive power, they need to capture a live specimen of similar power. To this end, the units themselves have also been getting larger, leading to higher costs.

Evolving Reverse Faction
The most cutting-edge units of “Cyberdark” were developed by using the entry model unit of the Front Faction “Cyber Dragon” as a motif because of their successes in reducing costs. They made the decision that to keep evolving, they needed to directly incorporate the power of the Front Faction. After scouring over previous battle data, they succeeded in drawing out immense power in their unit that was based on “Infernal Dragon” which showed a great affinity with their mechanisms. Its power to snatch victory in battles increased significantly.

Front Faction
This faction became the mainstream of weapons development due to “Cyber Dragon”: a unit with reduced costs from restricting functions and focusing solely on battling capabilities. It is a unit that embodies the very concept of “Destructive Power = Justice”.

By fusing several “Cyber Dragons” together, they have also succeeded in increasing the size and functions of the unit. Their development style of chasing only after destructive power knows no bounds.

Counteracting Front Faction
Determined not to lose to the Reverse Faction’s new units, the Front Faction too developed new units whose main gimmick was the capture devices found on the “Cyberdark”. Although there was heavy pushback from various places on incorporating technology from the Reverse Faction, development was jump started anyway after data showing that it would bring the power of their main unit “Cyber Dragon” to a higher rank surfaced. “Jormungardr” with its new functions also improved “Cyber Dragon’s” Fusion Tactics as a side benefit, bringing with it numerous gains on battlefields all around.
