Report from Colonel Holdemov, Company Commander, Odin/Manon
During our advance on the Underground Base we were intercepted by a UNA company and forced to withdraw. We were outgunned and, despite the kommando unit’s valiant attempt to eliminate the enemy’s Fire Crawler, in danger of being overwhelmed. All our armour was destroyed and I ordered a retreat so our infantry would not meet a similar fate. I strongly urge the deployment of Dotch Yaga units in the Elysee theatre. If this is not done I fear collectivist presence on this planet may become history. We got away with it this time but intelligence reports indicate that the other three belligerents all have heavy striders or tanks deployed. We must fight like with like or we will be beaten. I say this in the sure and certain knowledge I will be recalled and censured but someone has to speak out. I send this message to the defenders of the Restored Fortress; dig in deep, comrades and keep the fire of revolutionary spirit in your hearts.
