It was about to become dark, and we have sight of the Terran Republic taking over the Sungrey Power hub from us, the Vanu Sovereignty we stay in Moss Ravine preparing for any possible attack. Night falls and we wait for the T.R to attempt to steal our land. To our surprise, they decide to seize the land south, and we never see a T.R soldier for days. We thought they might try to push us from an unexpecting spot, but nothing, they continue their journey south.
One day, we are awoken by the sounds of Sunderers, and Lightning tanks, they finally try to push us from Sungrey. Once we look at the map, it all makes sense, we are surrounded by T.R territory. We place troops around the perimeter of Moss Ravine, but they have no pattern for where they attack us from. They put up a base across the long field that connects Sungrey, and us, but we are covered by the hills and we place Sunderers at the crease on the hill, and tanks wherever we could. The overhang that protects the base has suddenly become Vanu Infiltrators.
Our base in sort of in a pocket of mountains so we place Max's, and Heavy Assaults in the crease of what we call the Shield. T.R soldiers manage to try and peek this shield, and take out a large amount of troops, so we try to put Sunderers there to keep them from taking over, and flooding in before we get a chance to stop them. Replacing the Heavy Assaults, are Infiltrators, taking the T.R are the base by surprise, but they suddenly grab hold of our plan.
We have lost a large amount of life, with no amount of success, and they're almost here. The tanks are too powerful for us, and we can't keep taking our chances with them, we make a plan. We sit behind all of our Sunderers and wait for them to come over the hill, when they get pelleted with gunfire. We have rocket launchers taking out the tanks, and we have invisible Infiltrators flanking them, whilst the ones on the overhang above the base, take out troops one by one,. we see victory as the day rises.
All of a sudden, air vehicles, Valkyries swoop in taking out as many troops as humanly possible, and we are forced to push back into the base. We call for support from Scythes, something we should've did hours ago. And they push forwards, while we wait for our air artillery to eventually win the dogfight. We head back into the field with all of our vehicles, and weapon, we get into the same position and we light the field up. This time another war has begun above us, and you can't even hear your own gun shoot.
We couldn't hold them back, they were too strong and we were being pelleted with gun fire from everywhere. It was at that moment, the base was being captured, they managed to slip past the troops on the overhang, and hop down into the base. We rush over and only 5 troops were in the base, we stop and realize it was a decoy. They push up the field and build a tower directly across from our base. We are pinned, there's nothing we can do. We try to hold them back as long as we can.
Soon, we are pushed back into the base itself, which isn't crazy big, and all we hear is Scythes swooping in, the second time they save our asses. The fight becomes close quarters, and we gain our tanks back and take them out as fast are we possibly can and it works. We try to take down the tower but this fight runs into the next day, and while they had us in a headlock, we provail.
The fight roars more than ever as we can basically touch each other as they try to push back to their base. We push our tanks forward, and we duck behind them, trying to burst into the base, we are at the wall. The tanks push to the side, and take out the wall, we swarm in like ants, spraying at everything we see.
Eventually, we take down the base entirely and the field is filled with Vanu troops as the 3rd day comes to an end. This isn't the end we think, and we say fuck it, and take over their Power Station in seconds. We spread out and part ways, taking the T.R land that surrounds us, just before the New Conglomerate are able to start an attack at Moss Ravine, and push us into central Amerish. We decide to push east, and head to the land we had in the region hoping to never see the field where the Battle of Moss Ravine took place ever again.
