History
Recently, Baron Berlin and Axis Force, a German special operations unit from Nazi Germany in World War II, has just been thawed out from a cryofreeze they'd been in for the last 70+ years. After assessing the new century and what it had to provide, Baron Berlin, believing that he should be in charge of the world, amassed a new army, with stolen weapons, plans, wealth and of course, superior technology for his combat teams. In one such raid, Baron Berlin came across plans for a radical aerial battle suit that actually reminded him of of his old fellow combatant's armor...the Messerschmitt battle suit. Using these amazing experimental designs, Baron Berlin tasked Stuka and his engineers to create the new armor.
​
Recently, Baron Berlin and Axis Force took over Nuremberg, Germany with a no-fascist group called the "New Reich Army". There, Baron Berlin claimed the lands in and around Nuremberg as his new Nazi nation called "Reichsland", and Nuremberg as its capitol. During the fight for Reichsland, the Baron viewed a young New Reich Army soldier who used an antique 1980s German fighter jet as an incredible weapon for Reichsland. The pilot's skill was second to none. Sadly, the plane and the pilot went down in the fight, yet the pilot still fought hand-to-hand and never stopped until the end of the battle.
As such, Baron Berlin awarded that pilot, Hans Menkel, with the new Messerschmidt armor and immediately became a new member in Axis Force.
​
Hans had recently been a German fighter pilot, however, due to his 'anti-immigrant' stance, he was dishonorably discharged from the military. He found a job as an aviation museum restoration expert, where he was able to rebuilt an MRCA Tornado back into fully functional condition, including being able to steal several missiles and rounds for the aircraft's machine guns. As such, he secretly had joined the New Reich Army and was the only one able to fly and provide any air support that day. Before he was shot down, he severely damaged 2 German fighter planes.
​
Today, Hans has become extremely proficient in the use of the battle suit and follows Baron Berlin's orders like a true soldier to this day.

Equipment
-
Armor
-
-
Provided remarkable physical protection and incredible energy and thermal protection in combat
-
Provides amazing protection against radiation, toxic an acidic attacks
-
contained its own bio-collection system, food paste and water dispenser allowing for 2 days of survival in the suit.
-
Contains Infra-Red/night vision
-
-
Gauntlets
-
Gauntlets now house one remarkably powerful energy blasters each. Rate of fire is once per several seconds, however the range is up to 400 yards. The armor's batteries allow for the gauntlets to each be used up to 30 times before they need to be recharged.
-
-
Grenades
-
Messerschmidt has several grenades on his belt that can be used for excellently powerful explosive blasts, good flash-bangs, smoke and incredibly powerful incendiaries.
-
-
Flight
-
Modern jet pack that can propel Messerschmidt up to Mach 1.2 at a range of 500 miles at a maximum altitude of 40,000 feet.
-
He can carry up to 500 lbs of additional weight, but speed and range are decreased equivalently for each additional 100 lbs above his own suit's weight, eventually halving the speed and range at maximum weight load.
-
-
Tracking System/Electronics Suite
-
A sophisticated electronics package allows for amazingly accurate targeting, as well as tracking up to 50 contacts at any given time at a range of 5 miles (only within viewing range; cannot 'see' through hills, mountains or dense particulate in the air).
-
Tracking system also can be integrated into flight computer for use in amazingly maneuverability while engaged in aerial combat.
-
Contains an incredibly strong ECM weapon that can disable all electronics equipment within 4 miles of his location, except the Messerschmidt suit.
-
Contains incredibly powerful communications suite capable of tracking frequencies, receiving signals up to 100 miles away and even overriding certain frequencies.
-
-
Recharging
-
Suit has limited solar collectors, allowing for feeble power recharging (if the sun is out), otherwise, the suit charges from a standard electrical outlet after 10 hours.

History
In 1938, Adolph Hitler challenged the military manufacturers of Nazi Germany to create powerful battle-suits that could be used by troops and/or special operations personnel. Many of the major manufacturers provided armaments, equipment that could be fitted to a body, but only Messerschmitt was able to devise a full aerial battle suit for a soldier. The only problem with the suit: it overheated easily.
​
The Messerschmitt Aircraft Company eventually created a battle armor worthy of Hitler's request, however, due to extraordinary training and engineering it took to create the suit, it was never able to be mass produced. Instead, it was decided to assign the suit to a veteran Nazi military pilot who was able to use the suit effectively in the field.
​
From 1939 to 1945, Captain Sigmund Buehler wore the armor, fighting the Allies in WWII as well as his team's nemesis, the Allied Fighters with the super-powered Nazi group called Axis Force and led by Baron Berlin. Although the suit was severely damaged dozens of times, engineers had standby sets of armor. Messerschmitt was considered a highly effective aerial combatant and earned the Order of the Iron Cross for his victories as well as became a hero of the German Air Force - The Luftwaffe.
​
In April 1945, Sigmund and all the rest of the Axis Force team were called to Berlin for what was believed to be a final stand against the Allies and Soviets. Instead, Axis Force members were arrested and executed by the decree of Adolph Hitler. Sigmund and his engineering support team were executed in Berlin hours later on the night of 30 April 1945. Messerschmitt's armor was thrown into an incinerator, left damaged beyond use. What's left of that armor is now displayed at a War Museum in Berlin.
​
Baron Berlin and 15 remaining Axis Force members, rather than be executed, were placed in cryogenics freeze units, with the expectation to be thawed out to redeem themselves and fight for Nazi Germany once again should Berlin ever be overtaken. They were never thawed out, that is, until the units recently failed and Baron Berlin and his remaining Axis Force became part of the 21st century.
