You quickly transmit your orders to the Omni-Factory while Ghulls contacts the PMCs. BOTA-4 gunships quickly move to Planet-117. Ghulls pulls up a display of Region 3’s map for your use.

The Phantomic Repeaters are assigned to Battalion 5, who easily adjust to it. It’s very light, and the grip is comfortable, able to shapeshift to better fit the user’s hand. The Overmind Armor waits in storage.
Void Spheres manifest themselves, and your pilots are surprisingly eager to try them out. Their control system is almost magical: It reads the pilot’s thoughts, instantly. They can fly these strange vehicles as effortlessly as moving their own bodies.
The new Portal Wagons take up residence inside different rooms at HQ. They are just as compliant as Keymaster.
Four Usurper Knights are almost-instantly manufactured from the Author’s Forge, walking with more grace than anybody could expect. They pledge their allegiance to you, and stand ready for orders.
The Sentinel Orbs gravitate towards your personnel, eager to protect your forces from any harm.
Your soldiers posted at Region 3’s western coast report that they, along with the newly-reinforced air units have managed to shoot down 12 of the enemy planes before getting over land, leaving 42 still active. Troops over in the east report ten have been shot down. 45 of them are still coming.
HQ reports that the enemy transports from the east have landed just outside their perimeter. The others from the west them have landed in Cadrow City in Region 3, a city of 180,000 people.
HQ: Commander, this is HQ, there’s a lot of smoke coming out of those transports! We can’t see anything!
Ghulls: What about the scanners? Are they picking anything up?
HQ: Negative, Adjutant Ghulls. There’s something in the smoke that’s blocking our scanners. According to the sensors, it’s just… empty space. Whatever is in the smoke, it’s completely hidden. All 800 of our security personnel are already preparing to open fire, watching for movement. There’s been no sign of the enemy yet.
This smoke is unwelcome news.
The City Guards at Cadrow City in Region 3 call in. Captain Rodriguez, leading the organized defense and digging in at the mall, is reporting.
Cpt. Rodriguez: Commander! Ma’am! The whole city is covered in some kind of gas! There’s no smell and it’s not poisonous, but we can’t get visual on any enemies!
Ghulls: Captain Rodriguez, can you tell us where the transports landed?
Cpt. Rodriguez: We don’t have an exact fix on their positions, but I can give you our best guess based on what civilians have told us. Wait, Commander, I’m getting reports that there are creatures moving around the city… hang on.
Rodriguez speaks to another guard.
Cpt. Rodriguez: Bodyjackers? BODYJACKERS?! Frigo are you serious?! Okay okay I’ll tell the Commander! Commander Vorador, we have a situation here! We are getting incoming reports from civilians that there are walking crabs with glowing eyes breaking into people’s homes and putting eggs inside them!
Ghulls: How many, Captain?!
Cpt. Rodriguez: I- hang on, FRIGO! HOW MANY! Damn it, we can’t confirm exact numbers, but from the sounds of it there must be hundreds out there! What, Frigo? WHAT DO YOU MEAN THE HOTEL’S GONE QUIET?! Uh, Commander? What do we do?
Suddenly, another militia member interrupts him.
Sgt. Roswell: Captain, we’re getting word that enemy soldiers are also on the move at the prison. Looks like those planes didn’t just bring Bodyjackers with them. They’re all packin’ laser guns and wearing some kind of goggles. They’re putting up metal barricades and building something. People say it looks like some kind of cannon.
Cpt. Rodriguez: A cannon? Is it an artillery piece?
Sgt. Roswell: Could be, captain, but we just can’t get any of us to even look at it since everything’s covered in this damn smoke. That intel came from the warden himself.
Cpt. Rodriguez: Are the enemy soldiers attacking the prison staff?
Sgt. Roswell: They’re not hurting anyone, just… working on their project. Wait, we’re also getting intel from south of us… Shadow Company?
Cpt. Rodriguez: What?
Sgt. Roswell: Captain, we’re intercepting radio chatter.
Ghulls: Sergeant, send us the feed.
You listen to the chatter. All of the voices sound totally monotone, as if they were machine-generated.
???: Shadow Company. Four. Twenty. Nineteen. Six.
???: Shadow Company. Twelve. Fifty. Centaur. Abandon.
???: Shadow Company. Tango. Three. Zero. Zero. Four.
???: Shadow Company. Micro. Five. Zero. One. Sacrifice.
You: This sounds like some kind of code.
Ghulls: We’ll keep tabs on them, Vora.
Ghulls brings up the map of Cadrow, along with intel on where the transports may have landed.

Cadrow City is in immediate danger. There is very little intel and visibility is extremely poor. Seeker drones are nigh-useless. All of the transports landed in heavily-populated areas, meaning that launching artillery strikes without confirmation could lead to catastrophic collateral damage.
Which of your forces will you send to defend Cadrow? What will you do?
- Send in Spec Ops and the Swarm Intelligence Drones, priority is to gather intel!
- Raid the prison! Whatever it is they’re assembling must be a powerful weapon.
- Evacuate the Hotel District with the Portal Wagons and send in the Usurper Knights!
- Something else!
