Decline in Combat on Holplo XIII

Hostilites on Holplo XIII have come to a decline as of 07/27/2013 at 15:40. The conflict has already claimed at least 506 lives and seen the loss of 72 units and facilities.

Battle began 07/27/2013 at 15:28 when battle elements of Valen and Alastes engaged the forces of Ghosage. Skeptics feel this decline in combat may only be temporary and warn against regarding it as a downward trend.

Citizens of Holplo XIII are equally skeptical as the combat has already claimed countless lives of civilians and wrecked 71 facilities on both sides of the war. The individual colonial governments are anxious to begin the rebuilding process.
