Hiya!
Just wanted to throw out there that the gunboat forces landed here
Here
There were casualties sustained due to both starfighters and ground defenses as per the writing of several others.
At that point, Galak and myself were both at D3. The writing clarified that we had intentionally skipped over the shield outpost at E-7 as per Galak's strategy.
Here Galak deployed the Distortor, and we began to march from the landing zone, acknowledging a gap between our landing zone and the shield. The creature and the brute/drone forces were fully deployed at this point.
Some degree of combat occurs at the outpost at D3 as seen
Here and a pair of SJO-allied gunships launch some ordinance at us.
There were casualties reported from the gunships
Here and further mention of the march towards the shield at D4.
Here some armor groups begin to engage Bryn'adul forces at C4.
And finally,
Here having been unengaged at D4, we walk into the shield with the Distorter and use it to disable the shield.
Hope this helps provide a summary for all of the Objective B fellas. I know I definitely needed this. Lot of posts, it can be easy to miss things.
