The gate. A magical yet mysterious structure that sat upon the top of Alnus hill. A gateway that could lead to another world, bringing other worlds, native together into Falmart. A creation of the gods. However while the gate was now active, someone entered and stirred the wrath of a powerful unyielding force as the ground shook around the structure.

Light emitted from the entrance of the gate before finally, they came. Massive elephants of steel emerged from the gate and took up positions around their perimeter, as other smaller creatures too positions behind them in formation. The elephants began to scan the surrounding region around them as the sun finally began to rise of the horizon, casting a warm orange glow across the land, revealing the mass of men and wyvern awaiting their arrival on the opposite side of the land.

"Hostile contacts! Multiple enemy contacts direct front!" The lead tank commander alerted the main force as infantry took up positions upon the hill, pulverizing their visors which were cast in a reflective gold coating. Infront of them, a mass of the very same soldier who attacked them previously were gathered into formations, with more of those wyverns flying above them for support.

The Warriors drove up next to the Mammoths as they took aim at the enemy lines. Other Warrior vehicles outfitted with AA weaponry took positions as well and began targeting the wyverns that were above the enemy positions as Elephant trucks with a massive mass driver replacing their transport module extended out sets of legs that dug into the ground and began aiming the cannons upwards in the role of artillery.

Hazama watched the entire scene from his vehicle as he spoke on the main channel addressing all units under his command. "All units, fire at will. Destroy all enemy contacts."

"Let's rock!" One of the infantrymen cried out before he let loose with his plasma rifle, followed by the others as they too began to fire upon the enemy with their own weaponry.

The tanks and their mass drivers let out a thundering boom as they lobbed out huge projectile of supercharged plasma, creating a destructive explosion upon impact and dealing massive damage to the enemy tanks.

The Warriors began to fire with their dual guass cannons and AP swarm missiles which were deadly effective against the Roman styled soldiers of ancient times as it obliterated their ranks with ease as they were disintegrated to a pile of ash when struck by the missiles or turned into a burnt piece of flesh upon impact with bolt of plasma.

Their wyverns were of little advantage as they too suffered the same fate. The Warriors with AA kits fired up at them with rotary guass cannons and AA missiles which were able to track and destroy the flying creatures without difficulty.

"All armored units advance forward. Infantry move up from behind with them." Hazama ordered from his vehicles as the tanks and IFVs began to advance forward with the infantry following behind. "Artillery, fire for effect on enemy positions. Soften them up and drive them into a larger group."

Just as the Saderans soldiers were beginning to regroup with their commanders, the entire area surrounding them began to erupt with explosions as streaks of blue light shot up into the air from alnus hill before curving into an arc and impacting around them.

"What is the meaning of this?" The Imperial commander cried out as a scatter phalanx of his troops became engulfed in a fiery explosion.

"The enemies steel elephants are approaching us!"

True to their word, the massive steel elephants began charging towards them while shooting blue magic from their trunks.

"Fire arrows! Kill those beast!" Any archer who heard the orders aimed their bows and fired arrows at the steel behemoths, however they were ineffective as some sort of magical shield activated around them and deflected the incoming projectiles.
