Episode 5 is another 3-chapter episode, consisting mainly of soldiers and VS units. You’ll encounter two bosses during the episode, Baiztencale (5-2) and Overland Battleship (5-3).
Episode Boss – Overland Battleship
Ah, the Overland Battleship. Technically, it isn’t a boss, but that’s beside the point. To destroy the Overland Battleship, you must initially destroy the four wings and the Overland Battleship Main Cannon, and then infiltrate onto the battleship and activate a control post, keeping it active for a whole minute. For the wings and the cannon, it is best done with one player piloting the Main Cannon, whilst the rest charge the cannon and defend the ship from the incoming GAN-36 Ospreys. As the cannon pilot, the best method for taking out the wings and cannon is charging a shot, and shooting at the wings until the enemy cannon begins to charge, then just focus the shot on the enemy cannon for a second to shut it down. If the enemy cannon charges a shot before you, then the safest option is to get out of the cannon and hide behind cover, as that way the enemy cannon cannot shoot your cannon and destroy it. Once the wings and enemy cannon have been taken out, you will be able to infiltrate the enemy Overland Battleship. From there, both battleships will have a control post to defend, with 1 minute timers. Simply activate the enemy control post and keep it active for 1 minute, all the while defending your own control post from enemy forces.

End boss: Overland Battleship
At the start of the final part of this episode you will need to use the main laser cannon and the mounted turrets to destroy the other ship. Make sure you use the T-ENG chargers because the laser cannon using a lot of T-ENG. Have all the other players use the mounted turrets on both sides. Your main focus should be on destroying the other ships turrets, wings and laser cannon (in that order). When you see the other cannon open, have everyone concentrate their fire on it. If you do it fast enough it will close before ever getting in a shot.
You can also destroy the helicopters that come in and drop off enemies and enemy VS units. If you destroy them before they land on your ship you will save yourself from having to deal with them.
If you're playing with someone, you can have them shoot T-ENG into the laser cannon to charge it. If you listen closely you will hear the cannon make a sound when it reaches charge level 1, then it makes the sound again when its fully charged. Charging the laser is worth your time, it does a lot more damage fully charged.
Once the other ship is down you will be told you storm it. You need to board the ship and activate a post. Once this post is activated it will count down from 100. At the same time they will be sending guys over to your ship to activate a post on the lower level. If they activate your post another timer starts to count down. As long as you get their post timer down to zero first you will win. It may be worth while to keep a guy or two behind to guard your ship's post.
Once you have guarded the enemy post until it reaches zero, another timer starts. You have to make it back to your ship because once this timer reaches zero the enemy ship blows up. Anyone left on that ship will die.
*Note: If you stick around near the enemy post after the first timer goes off you can keep collecting boxes until the ship blows up. This is the best place to farm boxes.
