[GZG] [Brushwars] Overview of Situation [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]

Location: Planetary Colony G44-776
Date: 25th October 2198

From: Interplanetary Colonial Command
To: All contracted defence forces

On the morning of the 23rd October, unknown forces arrived in system and
immediately engaged space defences. After a short battle, our forces were
driven away from orbital support due to weight of numbers. Invasion forces
were immediately dropped into the outback uncontested and are now heading for
populated areas. Limited satellite recon estimates 8 separate forces of
approximately battalion size driving for several targets with 2 battalion
sized forces holding in the dropzone. Enemy aerospace assets appear limited at
this time and may have remained aboard their carriers for Combat Space Patrol
to prevent relief of the invasion. Emergency plan Beta has been activated and
all Planetary Guard units have been activated. Guard units are best utilised
as defensive units which will free up mercenary units to bolster defences and
undertake limited offensive actions. Army units are mobilising for offensive
actions, but cannot support everywhere at once.

Your primary orders are to defend all spaceport facilities and provide
firesupport to Guard units engaging enemy forces in defence of urban areas.
Secondary orders are to engage in offensive harrassing engagements and destroy
enemy forces where possible. Major offensive actions should be avoided at this
time unless opportune.
