Decline in Combat on Episer X

Hostilites on Episer X have come to a decline as of 03/19/2016 at 21:56. The conflict has already claimed at least 3 lives and seen the loss of 3 units and facilities.

Battle began 03/19/2016 at 21:55 when battle elements of Gideon 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 Episer X are equally skeptical as the combat has already claimed countless lives of civilians and wrecked 3 facilities on both sides of the war. The individual colonial governments are anxious to begin the rebuilding process.
