Decline in Engagements

Hostilites in Alga have come to a decline as of 08/20/2016 at 20:57. The conflict has already claimed at least 12,420 lives and seen the loss of 245 units and facilities.

Battle began 08/20/2016 at 20:52 when battle elements of Pirates engaged the forces of Havoc. Skeptics feel this decline in combat may only be temporary and warn against regarding it as a downward trend.

The Galactic Trade Commission has begun taking advantage of the pause in combat to make large progress on clearing the debris left behind from the battles.
