Decline in Combat on Verdte VIII

Hostilites on Verdte VIII have come to a decline as of 05/10/2016 at 17:38. The conflict has already claimed at least 1 lives and seen the loss of 1 units and facilities.

Battle began 05/10/2016 at 17:39 when battle elements of Amerlain 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 VIII are equally skeptical as the combat has already claimed countless lives of civilians and wrecked 1 facilities on both sides of the war. The individual colonial governments are anxious to begin the rebuilding process.
