Chi'ten looked around at the collected generals, all ready for war. He flexed his claws, already anticipating yet another successful conquest. He had led 4 campaigns before this one, bringing in 4 new planets into the fold of the empire he served. now ready for his fifth planet, he began to speak to his generals. "fellow Gar Ganash, we are at the edge of our fifth conquest, and this one should be the easiest victory yet" all the officers nodded in agreement, after all, the planet's inhabitants haven't even discovered electricity. "we begin the preparations to attack the northern part of the content Alpha, were the most natural resources are for us to set up a base, and were a large part of the inhabitants are fighting a war. You may begin your first attack." as the generals left to their assigned ships, Chi'ten couldn't help but look at the weaponry and tactics of the inhapatenst who were fighting a war between themselves. he laughed seeing that they still used kinetic weaponry, while standing in a straight line. it was primitive, but he admired their bravery and that it was their way of fighting a gentleman's war. He wondered if they would last a single week against his forces.

Gunnery Sergeant Kol'lent double checked his gear, his squad was going to be part of the first assault. He was proud to be fighting for his empire once again, but even more proud that his squad was going in first,they would be handing the high admiral the first victory of this new campaign. The light turned red, signaling the troops to get into drop passion. Kol'lent dawned his helmet, and turned to his men. "Alright, listen up, we are the first wave of the attack, we will take the field and eliminate all who stand before us, may the gods watch over us and good hunting" As the doors opened on the assault craft, he could see the other 29 crafts beside his, all carrying 10 troops each, he smiled, they may be outnumbered but they would be victorious, after all, how much of a fight could these humans with their kinetic weaponry put up.

George washington looked out over the battlefield, his troops were being beaten badly and he needed to come up with a solution quickly or else he would lose the field, but before he could think of something he heard something approaching, a sound he didn't recognize. as he turned his head he saw something he wouldn't think possible, 30 large flying objects, coming straight toward the battlefield. He immediately order all his men to retreat. he didn't know what they were but he wasn't going to let his troops be in the way.

As the ships began their landing, Kol'lent couldnt help but feel a prickle of fear. he couldn't understand why, they were gonna win, with the officers only predicting 2-3 casualties due to an accident or friendly fire. As they landed and the light turned green, he jumped out, and going prone, looked to see rows and rows of humans dressed in red standing perfectly still. as a 3 men on horses rode out towards them, another squad opened fire, killing the men and animals instantly. Kol'lent smiled, maybe the rest will just surrender, their leaders having just been killed. 4 seconds later the first row of red coated men fire at them, large puffs of white smoke coming out of their rifles with a sharp crack. he thinks their weapons pitiful till he hears a gar ganash scream off to his left. as he turned to look another volley is fired hitting more of his men, Kol'lent is horrified to see half his squad dead, with the rest with grotesque wounds. as the humans begin the reload, what's left of the squads begin to fire their plasma weapons, shredding the humans, like they were targets. the humans ran some even dropping their rifles. Kol'lent kept firing, in a primal rage. he emptied all 6 of his fuel canisters in record time. But to many of the humans got away. As the battle came to a close, Kol"lent gets up, only to see their are only 212 Gar Ganash still standing. As he runs over to the only other man alive in his squad, he began to feel fear. He looked at the injury on his squadmate and saw that the leg had almost been shot clean off with one shot. he quickly applied a catharizing paste and giving him a pain killer. as the medics took the wounded soldier away, Kol'lent looked around, the 2 squads who had landed closer to the humans were all dead, his was almost completely wiped out, only one squad had suffered no fatalities, only a slight wound in the arm on one of the members. Kol'lent looked at the assult ships, and saw that half of them would need lots of repairs while the 2 up front would never fly again. As he boarded the transport back to the medical ship, he wondered if they would win.
