Hired aborigines aside, there were also plenty of Terrans citizens who aimed to make it harder for their own 'ruling party'.
There were plenty of locals trying to help out the 'enemy' their own way, so to speak.
In one area, a group of about a hundred local guards were against a smaller group of enemies. Because of the number discrepancy, the Alterans would seem to have no chance at first glance, but then they would explode in power every time they had to.
Combined with their superior equipment as well as the certain elements flying here and there, the Fargo guard team encountered deep trouble despite outnumbering them several-to-one.
For instance, a small blanket of fire would appear in an area and the Fargo guards would naturally try to avoid it. Those who couldn't be burned, while those who did would hit and even step on their other teammates because of the narrowness of the space.
RIP dead victims. (Not, not Fargo's men. Their victims!)
