Decline in Combat on Neosta IX

Hostilites on Neosta IX have come to a decline as of 08/09/2014 at 16:31. The conflict has already claimed at least 10,059 lives and seen the loss of 304 units and facilities.

Battle began 08/09/2014 at 16:20 when battle elements of Pirates engaged the forces of Valen. Skeptics feel this decline in combat may only be temporary and warn against regarding it as a downward trend.

Citizens of Neosta IX are equally skeptical as the combat has already claimed countless lives of civilians and wrecked 0 facilities on both sides of the war. The individual colonial governments are anxious to begin the rebuilding process.
