It’s been ten years since the second team of B-Squad SPD Rangers defeated Ridenio. Ten years since peace ruled New Tech City. Four and a half years since B-Squad’s Yellow Ranger, Kida Frost, returned from a different dimension with Dinosaur Ranger powers. In that time, SPD started developing new technology to keep the city safe, the SPD powers not able to stand up to threats that would have otherwise been easy to stop.
Dr. Manx developed the “Variable Singularity System” or “VS System” for short. These new powers would reduce a new Squad of Rangers from five down to three but make up for the lack of teammates by increasing the Rangers speed, strength, and overall power. Unfortunately, one night three of the VS System Blasters and three Jetrunner Morphers are stolen from SPD, the thieves covering their tracks by being invisible to the Delta Base’s cameras.
Now, with three new “Rangers” causing destruction in the city, Commander Tate authorizes the use of Echo Squad, a team of three Rangers using the VS System and the Sirenstriker Morphers to face down their misguided counterparts…before something worse arrives to rip the city apart.

Vua’thun is the only one left standing as SPD burns. The Rangers are going to have to use every trick in their arsenals to stop him once and for all.
So, since Dino Steel is almost over, thought I'd bring something a little different to the frontlines. I teased this in a recent post in my Mystic Force game, and I fleshed it out and here we go. Yes, it's a take on Lupinranger vs. Patranger, and I hope we get enough interest to do this one.
