Bab 6247: The Duqaste System

The Torald Middle Zone turned into a highly contested warzone after the start of the Red Tide Offensive.

The fighting became intense right away as the overwhelming amount of alien assault fleets crossing the border quickly collapsed the 1st defensive band and tore down the 2nd defensive band not long afterwards.

Now, the 3rd defensive band had come under increasingly more serious assault, as the native aliens pulled away more and more assets that had previously been used to conquer other locations.

The Arvest Lima System became one of the many sites that the aliens intended to batter down in order to undermine the current frontlines.

While the expeditionary fleet of the Golden Skull Alliance began to fight hard in this logistical and industrial node, another star system also came under siege.

The Duqaste System was not as developed as the Arvest Lima System, but it had one gift that made it just as important.
