Decline in Combat on Verdte XII

Hostilites on Verdte XII have come to a decline as of 01/19/2013 at 22:57. The conflict has already claimed at least 9 lives and seen the loss of 9 units and facilities.

Battle began 01/19/2013 at 22:44 when battle elements of Buster engaged the forces of BAMF. Skeptics feel this decline in combat may only be temporary and warn against regarding it as a downward trend.

Citizens of Verdte XII are equally skeptical as the combat has already claimed countless lives of civilians and wrecked 9 facilities on both sides of the war. The individual colonial governments are anxious to begin the rebuilding process.
