The Skirmish of Baldur Island The Skirmish of Baldur was a large engagement between the Alliance's 25th Striker Survey Corps and the Union's 15th Elite Guard Ground Regimen. The Union had just landed on the south east coastline, but island defenses began to quickly intercept. The Islands Government were considered fools for believing they could take a skill Union invasion force. This battle lead to the Alliance sending in airborne forces to cut off the raid from the rest of the island, but lead to massive casualties on both sides. Operation Spearhead The war between the Alliance and Union forces was spreading quickly across the continent. On August 5th, a Union Fleet had arrived off of the southeast coast of Baldur. Without warning the 5th Advanced Fleet opened fire with an off-shore bombardment, they eliminated more than half of the islands defense batteries in that sector. The shoreline is quickly secured by the 15th armored company as they delivered armored elements onto the island. Lead by Elite Guardsmen Norman Zimmerman, the 17th Ground Regimen stormed the port city of Zorin, making an effort to not kill civilians. Their target was the government building on the north side of town, but their advance is slowed down by the islands local militia that were using weapons supplied from Sendaria. Things escalated as the 5th Advanced Fleet begins sending Zanneris MRT's into the city. A squad of 5 units begin sweeping the city of armored targets, specifically the heavy armor. The battle lasts about five hours before they take the building and taking in any government officials as P.O.W's. Operation Skipper The Islands capital city sends out an S.O.S to Republic forces that the island was under siege from Union forces. The 4th Recon Fleet arrives at Baldur's Western Coast and begins off loading the 8th Armored Battalion and 56th Ground Regimen. The Alliance arrived at the Capital Kadar after an hour and close off its roads going in and out of the city. It is not until 7:00pm that Union forces arrive at the city, but a large battle sparks up s Alliance forces ambush the first of their forces coming into the city. Both Ground Regimens clash intensely as the battle is pushed further into the heart of the city. The Alliance forces manage to gain control of the battle, but two teams for Battle Strikers enter the city from the East side, sweeping the Alliances armor and dealing critical damage to the 8th Armored Battalion's heavy tanks. The Alliance 25th Striker Survey Corps arrives at about 2 hours into the fighting, a squad of them made up of Red Shield ranks from the Red Shield Corps itself. Before anyone new, it was a clash between Elite teams from both militaries. This battle made an opening for the Alliances 22nd Airborne to come in, several warhawks would sneak in from the North West and drop in ground units to defend the capitol building and setup defenses within the large park across the street from that. The battle lasts for about two days before the Union pulls out from taking too much damage. They do not leave without dealing one last blow, however. A nightwing fighter sweeps the Capital building with several air fuel bombs and a couple ground attack missiles. The building and several of the 22nd are lost in the destruction, the President killed in the bombing. Operation Bulldozer Concerned that the Union did not fully retreat from the Island, the 8th Battalion pursues the ground forces while the 4th Recon fleet circles the island from the South. Both the 4th Recon and 5th Advanced Fleets clashed in a large naval battle. While the 8th Battalion attempted to eliminate the Union Ground forces, the Survey Corps provided shoreline support with long range fire to try and keep the enemy naval fleet suppressed. Elite Guardsmen Zimmerman challenges the Red Shield soldier, Marcus Redfield, within the Survey Corps' ranks to a duel. Their duel ends up with the Marcus almost crushing Zimmerman and forcing the 5th Fleet to withdraw. Edited by Ventus, Jul 17 2013, 12:39 PM.
