Following the establishment of the alliance bridgehead the Federal Super Heavy tanks moved out to challenge the remaining imperial forces. The imperial commander reacted by sending in the Last of Sycorax, and a furious battle developed on the valley floor that separated the imperial orbital defences from the base proper.
The baneblades engaged first, with the Librian armour drawing first blood, but the Sycorax shadowswords then emerged, obliterating the Federal baneblade. However, the alliance forces now showed their hand, with ancient Fellblades from Tallax adding to the carnage wrought by Librian Shadowswords.
By the end of 0806.019M42 the imperial tanks had been wrecked and the federal forces had only sustained moderate losses. The battle for Hussaria III was effectively over, although fanatical imperial cultists would plague the alliance forces for months to come.
