Decline in Engagements

Hostilites in Verdte have come to a decline as of 03/20/2013 at 17:49. The conflict has already claimed at least 821 lives and seen the loss of 18 units and facilities.

Battle began 03/20/2013 at 17:50 when battle elements of Tbarent engaged the forces of Raven08. 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.
