Decline in Engagements

Hostilites in Episer have come to a decline as of 02/04/2013 at 16:47. The conflict has already claimed at least 352 lives and seen the loss of 13 units and facilities.

Battle began 02/04/2013 at 16:36 when battle elements of Deveroes engaged the forces of Desertfox. Skeptics feel this decline in combat may only be temporary and warn against regarding it as a downward trend.

The Galactic Trade Commission has begun taking advantage of the pause in combat to make large progress on clearing the debris left behind from the battles.
