Decline in Combat on Verdte XI

Hostilites on Verdte XI have come to a decline as of 01/20/2013 at 04:17. The conflict has already claimed at least 36 lives and seen the loss of 36 units and facilities.

Battle began 01/20/2013 at 02:49 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 XI are equally skeptical as the combat has already claimed countless lives of civilians and wrecked 36 facilities on both sides of the war. The individual colonial governments are anxious to begin the rebuilding process.
