Pre-order Valkyria Chronicles II, get some extra missions

Psyched for Valkyria Chronicles II? Is Sega’s “Community BLiTZ” working? Like pre-ordering things at GameStop? If you answered “yes” to the first and third questions, then this is the announcement for you, because GameStop is offering two bonus missions with pre-orders of the PlayStation Portable-bound strategy extravaganza.

The missions themselves will be made available as a PlayStation Network download upon release. Going by the descriptions (which you can read below), they sound like “challenge” missions, with one pitting your troops in a straight-up brawl with a rival unit, and another tasking you with overcoming a group that specializes in “stonewalling defense”.

Being the willing fan that I am, I’ve already pre-ordered the game, but are you, in light of this announcement?

• Exercise vs. Class E – Exterminatory war exercise against rival class E using all areas of Leanbluff Forest. Destroy all enemies in each area to win this challenge.
• Exercise vs. Class F – Defense exercise against rival class F. Break through their stonewalling defense and take over their encampment to win this mission.
