Decline in Combat on Verdte XIII

Hostilites on Verdte XIII have come to a decline as of 08/06/2014 at 23:22. The conflict has already claimed at least 82 lives and seen the loss of 82 units and facilities.

Battle began 08/06/2014 at 23:19 when battle elements of Kbossm772 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 XIII are equally skeptical as the combat has already claimed countless lives of civilians and wrecked 80 facilities on both sides of the war. The individual colonial governments are anxious to begin the rebuilding process.
