As the winning side of the Battle of Pima Prime cleaned up the battlefield in orbit, the operations on the ground began to pick up steam.
The main objectives of Operation Saturday Market had always been to plunder or raze the heart of the port system!
As such, hundreds of intact combat carriers steadily descended from orbit and pierced through the upper layers of the atmosphere so that they could bring their combat-ready mechs to the surface.
The local defenders of the Gauge Dynasty did not make it easy for all of these vessels to reach their destination unscathed.
A large number of turrets and ranged mechs opened fire without hesitation and attempted to strike at the distant targets as best as possible!
The rather intense anti-air barrages forced the descending combat carriers to keep their distance from the enemy strongholds and touch down further away than they wished.
