Decline in Combat on Bean

Hostilites on Bean have come to a decline as of 02/24/2012 at 18:38. The conflict has already claimed at least 14 lives and seen the loss of 14 units and facilities.

Battle began 02/24/2012 at 18:13 when battle elements of Blackfang engaged the forces of Comet. Skeptics feel this decline in combat may only be temporary and warn against regarding it as a downward trend.

Citizens of Bean are equally skeptical as the combat has already claimed countless lives of civilians and wrecked 13 facilities on both sides of the war. The individual colonial governments are anxious to begin the rebuilding process.
