Titanic Clashes

No hesitation. That is the feeling of soldiers on both sides of this heated conflict that began just a while ago at 06/01/2012 at 14:02. And now, only 14minutes since the start of the battle, we have already seen 4,392 lives lost, countless more wounded and over 12 units and facilities damaged or inoperable for both sides of the engagement.

And yet, even with the death toll rising, forces of Malinko continue to openly engage forces of Berndarmin in the Equtgu system.

Citizens of the colonies within Equtgu are terrified and left wondering what the future holds for the jobs, economy and well-being of the entire system and its colonies. With such catastrophic death tolls that are only promising to rise as the fighting continues, there is enormous uncertainty in the air.
