Great Dovani War
Posted: Thu Aug 02, 2012 6:55 pmSurprise Indralan Attack on Zardic Fleet
Skara Brae, Saqueya, 7th November 3343
This morning, at 9:00 AM Zardic time, the Indralan Air Force attacked the fleet of Zardugal stationed at Skara Brae, Saqueya, in an unexpected surprise attack. The Indralan strike crippled Zardugal's naval capabilities, delaying the possibility of retaliation by several months. This attack comes after the July announcement from the government of the Federation of Zardugal of its retreat from all of its Dovani colonies. The government of Indrala has yet to issue an official statement, however it is clear that the attack took place in order to prevent the possibility of Zardugal protecting the independence of its former colonies.
The Indralan attack destroyed all 10 Zardic battleships stationed in Skara Brae, along with 9 cruisers, 22 destroyers, 231 aircraft, and 5 submarines. 1582 Zardic lives were lost, along the power station, shipyard, maintenance, and fuel and torpedo storage facilities, as well as the naval and intelligence headquarters building. Indralan losses were light, 3 submarines, 37 aircraft, and 149 lives.
The Indralan surprise attack will surely result in Zardugal's declaration of war, plunging Terra in yet another major military conflict, only three years after the official end of the Great Majatran War.
