The Imperial Airships were rerouted to Pulaski last night following a mandatory evacuation under executive order from the Consuls. Commander Suk asked for the evacuation after reports from recon ships claimed the Raider reinforcements were merely hours away, and are predicted to arrive earlier and in greater force then was previously expected. New calculations put the size of the reinforcements at an astonishing 1-2 thousand Raiders. Preparing for a long and bloody battle, the Ground Forces have swelled to 500+ soldiers in the area, but it is unlikely that other reinforcements will arrive before the battle begins. Consul Locke released a statement earlier today saying "Evacuations are necessary to prevent large loss of civilian life from enemy attacks during what shall be known as The Battle for Pulaski." The airships are expected to arrive at 1800 hours CST and will be departing from Beechwood Farm at 0000 hours. They will then proceed to Capital Peninsula and are scheduled to land at 0100 hours atop the capitol. Expect more news as the battle begins.
