Decline in Combat on Verdte III

Hostilites on Verdte III have come to a decline as of 01/19/2013 at 23:52. The conflict has already claimed at least 107 lives and seen the loss of 1 units and facilities.

Battle began 01/19/2013 at 23:54 when battle elements of BAMF engaged the forces of Buster. Skeptics feel this decline in combat may only be temporary and warn against regarding it as a downward trend.

Citizens of Verdte III are equally skeptical as the combat has already claimed countless lives of civilians and wrecked 0 facilities on both sides of the war. The individual colonial governments are anxious to begin the rebuilding process.
