On May 14th, 2008, Imperial forces and Rebel forces battled once again for the control of Restuss. Jed, Dar'Ness and Tarn flew high the colors of TMB/TWIN.
As always, a battle knows several moments, and this one didn't escape the rule. Despite advantagous numbers, the Imperial side suffered early setbacks, thanks to skillful duelling, smart terrain utilisation and a good alternance of tactics on the Rebel side. Imperial Special Forces ended up mostly on a one on one basis, against well prepared opponents. Kudos.
The tide turned however as Imperial forces became more focused and remained grouped. The repeated tactics became more obvious and cohesion was the winner of the day.
An interesting, but short, balanced moment occurred with Rebel reinforcement arriving, which gave place to squad movement, coordination and maneuver. This phase, turned to the Imperial advantage, which had acted more coherently as a group earlier. Rebel special forces didn't have time to adjust to one another and the tactics were visibly messier.
Finally, trench warfare developped as more Imperial forces arrived, helplessly outnumbering Rebel forces, which stayed within a safe distance from the line, as Imperial forces neared the Restuss spaceport. This state of affair surely evolved after that, but TMB/TWIN eyewitness accounts are lacking. Good job everyone, especially our own, but also to all participants.
