I really don't fancy the idea of turning war into a big video game. It's too clean. War is no game... and I don't like pretending it is.

Synopsis[]
This article does not have a synopsis recorded yet.
Notes[]
- This comic was shipped as an insert with X-O Manowar #25 (that contains the second half of the story). A standalone version was made available for "Fall Flings '93". Both front covers look the same, however, the cover of the standalone version is printed on stiff cardboard. Another distinguishing difference is their back covers. The insert's back shows an NFL ad and the standalone's back shows an ad for the Timewalker series. A third version, the Gold Edition, also shows the Timewalker ad on the back and also doesn't have the "Fall Flings" icon on the front.
- The (inside) cover of the Armorines insert has a cover date of "February 1993" while the indicia of the insert says "January 1994". The X-O Manowar #25 issue has a cover date of "February" only and the indicia's date is "February 1994".
- The Armorines' team-ups are:
- Anchor Man
- Point Man
- Wing Man A
- Lance Corporal James Earl Williams
- Lt. Pierce (co-pilot)
- Wing Man B
- When these assignment are addressed by Colonel Gardner, Lt. Hossen is mentioned twice instead of Lt. Pierce.
