March 4, 3064 - We radio Nanking. They are happy to see our victory, and ready to help us.
On planet –
1st FedCom RCT
FedCom RCT – 1 regiment of mechs, veteran, reliable; aerospace units destroyed in the battle; 3 regiments of armor, regular, unreliable; 5 regiments of infantry, regular and reliable
The 1st Kestrel grenadiers have jumped back to Zurich to help out there. Where bad stuff happens. (Check out the Zurich campaign earlier).
Marshal Ally Swanson, in charge of the 1st, answers a call from Duke Essex. He explains that they were asked to assist by the local government. She knows, she was in contact with the Brest for a while. She cannot, in good conscience, surrender the military-complex of Kallon to Essex. The mech-producing company is too important to vital to the Federated Commonwealth generally, and Victor specifically.
However, she recognizes our legal claim and that we have forced our way here. So, she is going to garrison the factories with her forces, and let the rest of the planet to us. But if we attack her, then all bets are off.
The Coalition forces land and are begun to be seen as liberators. Local Word of Blake plants push the pro-Coalition hysteria.
