The briefing room of the Imperial Star Destroyer Bellicose was as busy as Admiral Kraken had ever seen it. Generals, Commanders, Captians, and Colonels bustled about to go over last minute details before the Star Destroyer launched to commence the invasion of Vladet, the site of a former Imperial Base, and now a homeworld to the Rogue Warlord Geraldo, with his ragtag fleet of former Imperial ships, troops, and base defenses. His world would prove a tough nut to crack, but be cracked it would. Kraken had assembled a formidable armada of warships, consisting of the good old veteran Bellicose, a Mk2 Imperial Star Destroyer. Also present were the Carrack Cruisers Eviscerator, and Dominant, each crew having seen many battles, and having served an illustrious career in the Empire. TIE squadrons were even now ready to fly at a moments notice, and the ground troops had polished their weapons and armour, and were ready to go at a moment's notice. As the briefing room emptied, Kraken too left, and went to the bridge with a purposeful stride. When he reached it, he found his aide standing respectivley at attention.

"Sir, the fleet has finished maneuvers, and is ready to make the jump to lightspeed." said the aide.

"Very well, Colonel. Let us not waste time, for the first of what will be many Mid-Rim worlds awaits our liberation." Kraken said with a smile.

As the aide moved off to carry out the orders, Kraken settled back into his chair and waited. Then he felt a subtle vibration in the deck. The starlines outside the viewport elongated, then they were in hyperspace. Soon they would reach Vladet.

"Admiral, ten seconds until reversion from hyperspace." said the Navigator.

"Very Well," said Kraken, "Begin to bring up the shields, I want them up when we exit, and also charge up weapons batteries. And get the pilots to their fighters."

Then the starlines stopped swirling in long lines, and they faded away back into their normal winking existence. Ahead of him lay the small but important world of Vladet, with it's lush green beauty, and mountians. Orbiting the planet was a moderate sized Military Space station. In it's docking bay sat the skeleton of a Victory Star Destroyer, with construction obviously having begun very recently. Guarding the station was a modified Strike Cruiser, the Havoc, along with an Adz Patrol Destroyer, and several smaller customs ships. Upon seeing the Imperial Fleet arriving, the Strike Cruiser, and the rest of the ships broke orbit, and formed into an attack formation. The comm signal began to buzz at his side,

"This is Warlord Brill of the Vladet Imperium, who dares to attack my world?" said a cheeky voice full of rage.

"This is Vice-Admiral Kraken of The New Order. Order all your ships to surrender, and do likewise with your base, and you will not be harmed. This world is now under New Order control. Any objections will be met with the buisness end of a Turbolaser Cannon." said Admiral Kraken.

The communications station went dead then, and the small Imperium force accelerated to combat speed, and deployed their fighters, seventy two in all, three squadrons from the Strike cruiser, two from the planet, and one from the Adz patrol destroyer. Those consisted of sixty TIE Fighters, and twelve TIE Bombers, according to the data strolling in. Kraken countered that move by sending three squadrons of TIE Interceptors to meet the incoming enemies head on, and kept a squadron of Interceptors, and almost two full squadrons of TIE Fighters back to screen his ships. He then ordered his ships to move forward at full combat his speed. Kraken's battle plan was simple. Disable the Strike Cruiser with Ion Cannons, and use the Turbolasers to destroy everything else, including the Shipyard and incomplete Victory Star Destroyer.

As the Strike cruiser taskforce closed with his fleet, Admiral Kraken turned to his aide,

"One last order Colonel. Have nothing but the fleet's Ion Cannons target the cruiser. Use our Turbolasers on everything else, including any fighters that we may be able to get potshots on." Ordered Kraken.

"Aye sir. So you are trying to disable and capture the cruiser?" asked the aide.

"Yes, it will make a fine addition to our fleet. It has a handy amount of weaponry, and a large starfighter capacity for a warship of it's size." said Kraken.

As the fleets closed, each fleet's respective fighter squadrons met first, three squadrons of New Order Interceptors diving while firing into a large and somewhat diffuse cloud of Fighters, and Bombers. Detonations could be seen, then the fighters, and bombers were past each other, most looping around to engage each other, while the warlord's bombers and some of his fighters kept coming straight for the New Order fleet. The forward Turbolasers on the Bellicose opened fire as the gunners tried to pick off some of the lumbering bombers. More detonations could be seen as some of the Turbolaser fire could be heard, then the laser fire died down as most of the fighters in the main engagement were destroyed or scattered. Warning klaxons on the Imperial Star Destroyer warned Kraken that torpedoes had been launched by the remaining bombers. Glancing out the viewport, he watched as five torpedoes impacted against his forward shields. Then the fighter engagement was over, with the last enemy fighters retreating back the way they had come.

"Damage reports, on the double, from us and the fighter corps." Ordered Admiral Kraken.

"Sir, we've lost 15% of our shield power. Of our fighters, twenty-one TIE Interceptors were destroyed in the engagement, and another three have to dock with moderate to heavy damage." reported his aide.

"Damn," hissed Kraken, "We lost a lot of fighters. I suppose that is to be expected when we face two to one odds. Alright, let's hit them back. Guns, fire at will."

As the range closed to the enemy fleet, the Ion Cannons and Turbolasers on all three of his ships flashed to life, raining destructive and disabling fire down on the enemy ships. The Warlord's fleet returned fire, firing Turbolasers, Ion Cannons, and Missiles at the Imperial ships. Kraken took note that they seemed to be concentrating on his Carrack cruisers, so Kraken ordered them to fall back while his Star Destroyer sliced ahead to disorganize the enemy formation. A small Jompers pursuit ship took a trio of Heavy Turbolaser bolts and exploded violently, throwing his comrade off course. An old Imperial Lancer class Frigate took several hits that exploded most of it's weaponry, and sent it spiraling away venting atmosphere, and bodies. Other shuttles, and Customs ships exploded, or were severly damaged in the large exchange. The strike cruiser had shifted it's fire away from the Carrack cruiser to the ISD, which promptly returned fire with it's Ion Cannons. Then the Carracks formed up, and came in on the other side of the Strike Cruiser, and launched fullisades of forty Ion Cannons apiece.

A little later, the Strike cruiser lay dead and disabled in space, with the rest of the Warlord's fleet, consisting of the old Lancer Frigate, and about twenty Customs, and Pursuit ships laying destroyed, or drifting with heavy damage around the local area. Ahead lay Vladet, where nothing now stood between the invading Imperial Fleet and the planet. Kraken took time to give out new orders,

"Have our Technicians start repairs on any systems that are malfunctioning or are dead. Send a couple of shuttles over to the Carrack Cruisers and help them with repairs. Let's have about five hundred Stormtroopers flown over to secure the Strike Cruiser, and have the TIE Bombers fitted with Proton Bombs, as well as preparing the remaining Ground Troops, and Walkers for ground assault." Ordered Admiral Kraken.

Soon, with the Space Battle ended, and any remaining ships secured, the Star Destroyer began to lumber forward, looking to begin the ground assault phase of the operation.

The Bellicose lumbered forward making good speed, and soon the world of Vladet dominated the view out of the front viewport. The Star Destroyer began a stately turned to starboard in order to orbit the planet. Inside the Destroyer, Kraken met with his ground commanders in a breifing chamber;

"Commanders, welcome to our first ground assault. Our target is the world you see out the viewport, called Vladet. A former Imperial Base, it is now controlled by a Warlord. His fleet has now been decimated, and all he has left are his planeterey defenses, and his ground troops. This volcano," Kraken gestured to the holoscreen, "was the site of the former Imperial Base, run by one Admiral Devlia. The base itself was turned into rubble by Rebel Y-wings in the Battle of Vladet shortly before the appearance of Thrawn, during which Ysanne Isard ruled the Empire. A hole was blown in the Volcano wall which allowed the Y-wings to go in under the base shields. But I have a better idea for getting in there. The warlord has no shields, and insteads relies on AA Batteries inside the base for dealing with fighters, and a wide array of ground weaponry for preventing any ground forces from climbing into the Volcano. Even if any do make it into the Volcano, they will be facing the Warlord's most elite troops, former Stormtroopers with E-Web heavy repeating Blasters. Fortunatly, I have a way around this obstacle."

"And how may that be, Admiral," asked Commander Harrier, "Even if we simply crush the ground weaponry with our AT-AT Walkers, those walkers won't be able to scale the mountians, nor will the AT-ST scout walkers. Our infantry and speeders could do it, but they would be slaughtered by the stromtrooper corps on the top of the Volcano rim."

"Good question, Commander. That is why I had shipped aboard two platoons of ten each MT-AT walkers. For those of you who have not seem them," informed Kraken as he brought up a holopanel display of the walkers, "They have many legs, much like a spider, allowing them to easily scale up a mountian. They also have a formidable array of many laser cannons, allowing them to quickly rip through the stormtroopers armour."

The Commanders smiled as they saw his plan, so he dismissed the Commanders to get to their stations, then ordered the Star Destroyer to launch the invasion. Dozens of pods shot from the belly of the Destroyer, consisting of 10 AT-AT pods, and 16 AT-ST pods. Soon the First Ground Battle will begin.

Commander Harrier watched from his view on the lead AT-AT as he approached the ground installation. Right now they were ten kilometers from the nearest weaponry, which had sighted, and was currently tracking the Imperial walkers as they lumbered forward with mighty earth shaking steps. Unlike the Jungle canopy they had landed in, and been forced to lumber and burn their way through, the area around the Warlord's Volcano base was suprisingly cleared out, in what appeared to be a 10-kilometer killzone created by the warlord. Then, suddenly, up ahead, the Ground Weaponry opened fire on the Imperial Walkers, which promptly returned fire. The Warlord's defenses were well in-line and equipped, with Imperial, and New Republic design ground defences. The walkers exchanged fire for a long time before the toll began to be seen for both sides on the conflict grounds. A torpedo from a dual ground launcher had blown the front end off an AT-AT walker, which had promptly collapsed. In addition to that, an AT-ST off to his side detonated after taking repeat hits from an Artillery Installation. Finally, the last cannons were disabled, and the Walkers advanced on the entrenched infantry. The infantry put up a brave fight, but were duly slaughtered by the Imperial Walkers. The Imperial Ground Infantry went in to secure the ground buildings, which conisted of a landing platform that contained the last five operational TIE Fighters left over from the battle above, an Infantry Barracks, and a Supply Depot. The Supply Depot was secured without any problems by a company of forty Stormtrooper regulars, which was little suprise there, but the other two buildings had plenty of troopers defending them. The landing platform had one hundred former Imperial stormtroopers in black armour with red stripes defending it, armed with laser cannons, and virbopikes. The New Order stormtroopers, consiting of two platoons of eighty stormtrooper elites total, stormed the building in quick order, and the fighting was fierce. The New Order troopers were repulsed, and the last Five TIE Fighters took off to strafe the Imperial forces. Of these, one was shot down on liftoff by an AT-AT, and another one was shot down while strafing a ground transport full of troops by an AT-ST, while the final three were shot down by TIE Fighters arriving from orbit. The New Order army lost three hundred Stormtroopers and one AT-ST by these fighters. Soon the ground installations were secured. Now it was time for the assault on the Volcano to commence.

The Imperial Army took hold of the ground installations with realtive ease. Now that that work was out of the way, the volcano lay open, ripe for the picking, thought Admiral Kraken as he prepared to send down the second wave. Twelve pods left the launching bay of Bellicose and descended to the surface of the lush green world Vladet. The pods each contained a Mountian Terrain Armoured Transport, or a MT-AT. These vehicles were suited to climbing up mountians, and each had eight legs, and the main body, exactly looking like a Tatooine Dromp Spider. As for their armament, it was quite exetensive, and perfect for the anti-infantry role they were playing today. The pods landed all around the side of the Volcano. Then they split to reveal the Mountian Terrain Armoured Transports. Leading this assault was a Commander by the name of Drake. He is a MT-AT veteran that was trained at Carida several years ago, and even served with Ambassador Furgan's dreadnought, the Vendetta, for a while, but luckily was reassigned before the dreadnought's suicide mission to Anoth that resulted in it's destruction, and the capture or defeat of the eight MT-ATs that had been with it on the mission to capture Anakin Solo when he was an infant. Now the walkers would be used to scale the dormant Volcano, and kill or force to withdraw the infantry stationed to knock off anything that came over the top of the ridge. The MT-ATs did have blaster proof armour, and as for their armement, they carried eight twin laser cannons, one on each of their joints in their legs, and an additonal two laser cannons and a grenade launcher under their cockpit. The walkers emerged from their pods, and took up position under the volcano ridge. At their signal, the Bellicose loosed a bombardement upon the shields of the base. By doing this the Warlord knew that the Imperials were about to send troops over the Volcano and into the base. By doing this the Imperials hoped to lure the Warlord's troops out of hiding and into combat to where they could easily be slaughtered by the MT-ATs. The tatic worked, to an extent, that is. Most of the five thousand Warlord Stormtrooper corps came out of hiding, but some one hundred elite units remained hidden inside along with the Warlord himself. As soon as the five hundreth bolt expended itself on the shield, the Mountian Terrain Armoured Transports started up the side of the Volcano. The walkers accelerated to an amazing speed of forty kilometers an hour, and had reached the top of the Volcano after ten minutes. The Warlord's troops saw the walkers coming up the Volcano, and opened fire with their E-Web Heavy Repeating Blasters, and Grenade Launchers. The Mountian Terrain Armoured Transports responded to this by firing their blasters into the ranks of Stormtroopers. Some one hundred Stormtroopers were cut down in a matter of seconds, and many more made to retreat back into the shelter. Suddenly, though, the table shifted back to favour of the Warlord's troops. Two Mountian Terrain Armoured Transports exploded as grenades blew apart their main structres. And on top of that, a hangar bay opened up to reveal four All Terrain Scout Transports trodding out. One Scout Walker blasted apart an MT-AT with its chin laser cannons, and another blew up the cockpit of one with its side mounted grenade launcher. But the sudden reverse of fortune for the Warlord's troops would not last long. The Mountian Terrain Armoured Transports responded to these new threats by shifting laser cannon fire to the Storm Troopers that were carrying the grenade launchers, while they also fire their own grenades at the Scout Walkers. Three Scout Walkers of the four were immediatly destroyed by the barrage of grenades, with two having their cockpits exploding, and having one leg blown off the third, from which it fell over and exploded. The fourth one retreated back into the maze of buildings that comprised the main infrastructre. The infantry were falling like flies by now. The Warlord's army was in full retreat, with the remaining eight Mountian Terrian Armoured Transports in full pursuit. Suddenly, as one Mountian Terrain Armoured Transport rounded a building corner, the last Scout Walker suddenly appeared. It fire two grenades, and disabled four of the Mountian Terrain Armoured Transport's legs. The Mountian Terrain Armoured Transport fired off two of it's grenades, but they overshot the Scout Walker, and killed another one hundred infantry instead. Both of the vehicles fired their laser cannons at the same time. The shot from the Mountian Terrian Armoured Transport ignited the remaining grenades in the side mounted Scout Walker Grenade Launching pack, igniting a large explosion that blew the Scout Walker apart. The shots from the Scout Walker also ignited the remaining grenades in the under the cockpit grenade launcher pack, and so both vehicles went up in a large explosion that killed many nearby Warlord General Infantry. Now that the resistance had been crushed or routed, it was time for the Special Navy Troops to go in, and do their jobs on the base shields.........

The Special Navy troops, led by one Colonel Tchort, debarked from the landing hatches of the Mountian Terrain Armoured Transports. The walkers laid covering fire with their laser cannons, cutting down multipule stormtroopers that emerged from cover in order to fire on the approaching commandoes. The commandoes fired with their own weapons, cutting down a few troopers as well. Then the last enemy walker, a All Terrain Scout Transport, came out of cover and fire with it's laser cannons, and grenade launchers. One Mountian Terrain Armoured Transport exploded violenty, killing it's four Special Navy Troopers that were at the time unloading their gear. The other Mountian Terrian Armoured Transports did not like this action, and decided to do something about it. They all fired their grenade launchers three times apiece at the All Terrain Scout Transport that had fired on the Mountian Terrain Armoured Transport. The scout transport was blown apart by the flurry of grenades, as well as killing more stormtroopers. The Mountian Terrain Armoured Transports then took up position at crossroads, and junctions, and switched all of their laser cannons to autofire. In five minutes time seven hundred stormtroopers were cut down by rapid fire laser cannon shots, and many more were either wounded, or routed into the base's buildings. A fair number ran into the shield complex, which caused some of the SpecNav soldiers to voice concerns. But a mission was still a mission. The first four SpecNavs to reach the building door kicked it in, and threw in a series of frag grenades, and stun grenades. After the explosions subsided, the next eight went in, and after several minutes of bone crunching, bloody screams, and a few blaster bolts, the SpecNavs waved the remaining ten in. In one corner they piled all the bodies, twenty stormtroopers, ten technicians, and one SpecNav soldier, then the team proceeded into the main generator area. When they opened the door, they were greeted by about fifty stormtroopers, and twenty technicians, plus three officers, two majors, and one captian, waiting for them inside. Three SpecNavs were shot immediatley, plus six stormtroopers. The remaining SpecNavs backed out, threw in black smoke grenades, then waded back in with infra red goggles. They broke the necks of about twenty-five stormtroopers before the smoke lifted, revealing the SpecNavs, and the remaining troops. A furious lightfight then erupted, with much valuable equipment being slagged. In twenty-five seconds, the remaining troops had been dispatched, and the shields had been shut down. Recieving the Omega signal from High Command, the SpecNavs evacuated the building, got back on board the Mountian Terrain Armoured Transports, and got out of the canyon. And just in time, too. The Bellicose launched a furious bombardement of the volcano base, obliterating all of the buildings, killing all the rest of the stromtroopers, and the warlord himself too.

The rebuilding of Vladet had progressed well ever since the last remaining enemy troopers had either been killed or detained by the New Order Stormtroopers. New buildings were being constructed, factories being brought online, and groundworks being laid, all by an army of construction and utility droids, all under the watchful eye of the New Order security guards. At that time Vice Admiral Kraken had come from orbit along with a good bit of the command staff to personally oversee the reconstruction of the Volcano base as a New Order Head Quarters. The base of the Volcano was being leveled off so that deep Command Bunkers could be installed below it, covered by other structres. Starfighter, Fleet, and Ground Command would all be in this main base, with training facilities for each either located elsewhere on the planet, or in the case of one or two, offplanet. The main warroom and command building would also be located here. Lining the walls of the Volcano would be the site of future ground weaponry, such as Planeterey Ion Cannons, or other power generators as the future need arises. The New Order troops permanently assigned here would be one full general infantry division of twenty thousand stormtroopers, first line regulars who were well seasoned, and a mechanized armour division consisting of twenty All Terrain Armoured Transports, or AT-ATs, thirty All Terrain Scout Transports, or AT-STs, and nine thousand specialized general infantry, plus crewers consisting of one thousand enlisted men, and fifty officers. An addition to this force was a company of ten Mountian Terrain Armoured Transports, or MT-ATs as they were more commenly referred to. Crewing this force was twenty enlisted men, and officers, plus a force of fifty Special Navy, or SpecNav commandoes. As for base personnel, there was a total of ten thousand engineers, technicians, and others milling about that would be assigned permnanent posts at the base. The buildings outside the base would consist of at least three starfighter landing platforms, and four hangars, being enough to house nine squadrons of starfighters, totalling one hundred and eight starfighters. Whenever the fighters would be constructed, thought Kraken, he would assign the starfighters seventy two Twin Ion Engine (TIE) Defenders to the base, along with thirty six Twin Ion Engine (TIE) Bombers to the base, with the bombers acting as an anti-captial ship defense, while the fighters acted both as a starfighter interceptor, and capital ship interceptor. The fighters each carried four laser cannons and two ion cannons, and six missiles, either concussion or proton warhead based depending on the mission involved. The bombers carried two laser cannons, mainly for starfigher defense more than anything, and upward of either sixteen concussion missiles, fourteen proton torpedoes, or ten heavy anti-ship or platform rockets. This force of fighters and bombers would make mincemeat of any minor threats the world may encounter during the reign the New Order had over the world, which it's commanders intended to be a very long time. In addition to those starfighter capacities, the new base would also have eight hangars to maintain and take care of it's complement of ground walkers, three large barracks for it's troops, and various machine and mantinence shops. The barracks could each hold up to twenty thousand soldiers, and so each would be filled with upwards of fourteen thousand troopers. The cafeteria provided the better than usual field rations with wildlife slaughtered in the surronding area for the meantime. Kraken concluded this tour with these facilities and walked off to the Command structre, where he was due for a meeting with his command staff..........

As Vice Admiral Kraken of the Imperial New Order stepped into the command bunker, several first line officers stood up and offered salutes or cheers. Kraken returned the salutes to those who saluted, and waved his hand at those who cheered. When the noise had quieted down, Kraken took to his seat, and sat down, which signaled the beginning of the meeting.

"First order of buisness," stated Kraken, "Is the casualties we sustained in this campaign of ours. With that, I first go to Commander Harrier, of the Imperial Star Destroyer Mark II Bellicose, with his report on Imperial Naval casualties."

"Thank you, Admiral. First off, of our fighter corps, twenty-one Twin Ion Engine (TIE) Interceptors were destroyed in the engagement. Of these fighters and their pilots, three were of elite status with the one twenty third Imperial fighter group, two were veteran status of the two twenty one Imperial fighter group, and the rest novices with our other various fighter groups. The leader of the fighter corps, Colonel Bremen, whose seat you will notice, is empty, is among those killed in the space battle." stated Command Harrier. At the mention of the young and promising Colonel, the faces of several officers turned breifley away to hide the looks of sadness at the Colonel's loss. Commander Harrier went one, "Of the space battle between the respective vehicles of our fleet, on board the Carrack class Light Cruiser Dominant, moderate damage was suffered in it's battle against a trio of patrol vessels armoured with turbolasers, and missiles. Twenty one officers, gunners, and crewers were killed in this action with another ten men wounded. And that wraps up my report for the loss of men in the Naval engagement. I will now turn the floor to my brother, William Harrier, and his report on the ground campaign, stage one." said Commander Harrier as he left the command podium.

The floor was then taken by Ground Commander General William Henry, who commanded the first assault on the troops of the Warlord who held Vladet captive. He walked to the podium with a graceful stride, well aware of the officer's stares directed at him. He began to speak, "The Imperial New Order army, consisting of the one hundred fifth stormtrooper division, with twenty thousand general infantry troopers, along with one walker division of twenty All Terrain Armoured Transports (AT-AT), and thirty All Terrain Scout Transports (AT-ST), consisted of the first wave. Of these troops, one hundred five stormtroopers were killed while infiltrating buildings, and eliminating opposition surronding the volcano. The highest ranking member to die was Major Himron, at the hands of three security guards armed with blaster pistols. With the conclusion of the ground casualties, I will leave the podium to Colonel Tchort." stated Commander William Harrier as he left the podium.

The floor was at last finally taken by Colonel Jarek Tchort of the Imperial New Order army corps. He stode up to the podium with a meaningful stride and a heavy burned. Twenty five percent of the firepower and personnel assigned to him for the assault on the Volcano base had either been destroyed, killed, or wounded or damaged. He began to speak as well, "For stage one of the assault on the volcano base, four of the ten Mountian Terrain Armoured Transports (MT-ATs) were destroyed, all four due to the actions of a number of All Terrain Scout Transports (AT-STs) that we did not know the Warlord possessed. The crews of these walkers, consisting of a pilot and gunner each, totalling eight crew members, were killed. For the second stage, when the Special Navy Commandoes, or SpecNav troops went in to assault the shield generator, ten of their number died in combat of twenty four going in, along with the sixteen commandoes that had died were their walkers were blown up. So that brings my casualty total for the assault on the shields, and volcano base to thirty four men of sixty total." stated Colonel Tchort as he left the podium to Admiral Kraken.

Admiral Kraken once again took center stage, and turned meaningful eyes and words to his Commanders. "This means that all together we have lost a grand total of fourty two men in space, and one hundred thirty nine men were killed on the ground, bringing our total casualties to one hundred seventy nine. Not bad for the operational prediction that we would lose upwards of two thousand five hundred men. You all are to be congratuled on your actions, tactics, and bravery. Funerals for the fallen, and celebrations for the living will be forthcoming. I thank you all for your patience, and your attendance. For now this meeting is adjourned." said Admiral Kraken as he left the podium.

After the major fighting had come to an end, and with the last of the Warlord's troops either surrending, or having been killed, with the last of the old buildings being disposed of, and with mines, factories, military buildings being constructred or having been constructed in their place, with human colonists from other worlds now living a nice, free life, with the world having been liberated from the clutches of the evil warlord, and placed into the hands of the well meaning Imperial New Order, Kraken decided it was time for a speech to celebrate the triumph of his troops.

Taking the main communications relay station on Vladet, being newly constructed, Admiral Kraken began to speak, "I want to thank all of the men, women, and personnel involved in this operation, this takeover. Thanks to all of your efforts, and efforts of your comrades who fell in battle, this operation was a success. Even now the last troops of the enemy Warlord have been captured, and his military and navy being disbanded, and replaced with our own. The natives of this world, combined with new colonists, will now live a peaceful and free life thanks to your efforts, as well as providing the Imperial New Order with a important military and Naval Base. For all this, I congratulate you. Thank you, for your efforts. Gloria Imperium.!"
