Decline in Combat on Verdte XI
Hostilites on Verdte XI have come to a decline as of 04/01/2014 at 21:43. The conflict has already claimed at least 169 lives and seen the loss of 20 units and facilities.
Battle began 04/01/2014 at 21:42 when battle elements of Mallagan engaged the forces of Pirates. Skeptics feel this decline in combat may only be temporary and warn against regarding it as a downward trend.
Citizens of Verdte XI are equally skeptical as the combat has already claimed countless lives of civilians and wrecked 19 facilities on both sides of the war. The individual colonial governments are anxious to begin the rebuilding process.
