The battlefield turned into an entire mess.
Orbital fortresses continued to get breached by the siege weapon brought forth by the invading aliens.
Countless engineers and technicians worked hard to control the damage and allow the alloy bulwarks to last a little longer.
The longer these fortresses remained operational, the more enemy fire they attracted. The fortresses were also able to employ their own turreted gun batteries to retaliate against the distant enemy warships.
Alas, the volunteers who had all chosen to stay behind in this doomed star system could not do much to undo the catastrophic damage inflicted by the invading enemies.
There were too many enemy warships!
Even if more of them adopted an anti-mech weapon configuration, they still possessed enough primary armaments to wear down the structure of the exposed space fortresses.
