Introduction

"Sir, we are detecting nomad airforces northeast of cameliard. They seem to be small spaceborne bombers."

Karl-Heinz had grown increasingly irritated by the actions of non-pano forces. While most seemed to be focused on defending against combined armys aggression, some reports about yujing attacking cameliard had reached him. Even worse, the nomad nations were supposedly helping out the yujing forces. He couldn't understand how peopel hellbend on freedom and party would ally with somebody that had no interest in individual freedom of its citizens... or party.

"Track them and alert the ground forces in that grid, that they might have to deploy fast."
"I have somebody from ariadna on the line, who claims that the nomads are supllying yujing forces on the ground with orbital intel and even explosives."

Another oddity of the battle so far. Apart from the obvious help, extended by o12, pano high command had given them orders to help ariadna if possible and to generally trust them. Karl-Heinz had already been suprised with jsa forces tryng to contact them to help with pano wargoals but Ariadna working together with them wasnt something he thought possible. They surely would have some kind of hidden agenda to steal pano technology, but he didnt care about that. While he had some minor run ins with ariadna forces on the battlefield in his past, he would have prefered them to be equipped to higher standards, able to fight combined forces alongside pano forces.

"The nomads are bombing the outskirts of cameliard sir. We had heavy yujing forces fighting their over the past few days. But the area should be deserted at the moment"
"Analyse their attack pattern. They might try to conceal something or hit something on the ground we arent aware of yet."
"... its all centered around a local square. I can confirm no civilians or known forces on the ground"
"We had an meteroit shower going down a few hours ago over that square. To small for our AA to care. The area itself is deserted for some days now."
Karl-Heinz got an idea that was unlikly but maybe, they had gotten lucky "send a covert infiltration forces, back them up with a TAG and tell them to move fast. Whatever is or was in that area, they will retrieve for us."
"I got a tactical group from varuna that is ready nearby, trying to salvage a broken down cutter... and a small winterforces patrol that already radiod for permission to investigate"
"Perfect, tell them i would prefer to pilot a TAG with two legs and atleast an arm to hold weaponry in."

Karl-Heinz walked out towards the remote access pods. Surely the nomads hadnt disguised an airdrop meant for yujing forces as asteroids. Missiing the correct launch window by partyng or ca intervention. And now where stuck covering up their mess with making a bigger mess. Surely not...

Battle

The Battlefield with 3 Supplyboxes containing Contraband that would link the nomads to the military action YuJing Forces unlawfully conduct against Pano Froces on Cameliard. On the sides you can see the fire raging on after the failed carpet bombing that was supposed to destroy the evidence
The Infiltration Force gathered to retrieve the Contraband
The nomads even dared to bring a TAG. The Pano Forces gather in direct opposition of it in the hopes of containing it early on
Like a scalpel the Kriza removes a Tr drone, followed up by both nokken.
The Tag creeps forward and totally removes the 2nd tr drone
The crocman makes a mad dash towards the critical supply and makes room for a better position of TAG-commander Karl-Heinz Russ
Sombra counterattacks. Leaving the Cutter Immobilzed but also his back wideopen.
the crocman tries to shoot the crocman in the back but fails. Even worse he will fall to the Kriza shortly aftwards. The cutter gets heavily dmg while trying to stop the kriza and manages to shake of the imm-b. A heroic Pano Engineer sees his chance and kills the sombra.
The exposed crocman is mowed down but both kriza and TAG get damaged. The Cutter is saved multiple times by his fortified position and the mimi-6. Explosive reactive shots so far being the only way he applied damage.
For some reason the gun of the enemy TAG goes silent at this point. Later review of grainy surveillance videos would show an over eager Clockmaker trying to repair the heavy hull dmg of the TAG. It is unclear why he did that on a heavyly damaged but still operatable TAG. Maybe it was hybris or trying to lay the ground work for a last great push with the TAG, but the footage clearly shows him damaging the TAG into shutdown and even cause it to explode. Panocian Intel services are rumored to over him refuge in the techbees if he would be willing to speak up about the nomads nations actions against the human defensive effort.
Disregarding the safety of valueable military equipment, Karl-Heinz pushes his Cutter to the maximum energy out put and puts himself in direct line of fire with mary problems. She must have been confused by these actions as nothing she does puts the Cutter out of action. Seeing his chance of securing atleast a fracture of the contraband, the engineer moves quickly to pick up the supply box, securing it for our intel services to inspect.
I think the campaign is to short for my slow workpace and busy week to turn this Karl-Heinz Testcolor into a proper Mini. I had gotten the idea after the game but with 2 more venings occupied with a game and report i can already tell you that i wouldnt finish a mini.

Aftermath

Father-in-command Russ had to face more suprises that day as he would have guessed. Turns out, the nomads had missed their mark and failed to destroy the evidence linking them to yujings military actions. Maybe a miscalculation after entering gravity or drunk pilots. Nomatter, Ariadna intel proved to be correct, which was far more valuable to Karl-Heinz. While he had got lucky with retrieving some supplys, he had to do so against a determined opponent who suprsingly fielded a TAG too to scoop up, whatever was left after the bombing. Karl-Heinz forces had made it just in time to stop the nomads from getting away with such a bold thing to do.

- i hope i can fight some more TAGs - he tought to himself, upon leaving the remote acces pod.
