The new frontier began to show its transphasic fangs towards red humanity.
All across the border regions, the alien assault fleets relentlessly assailed the hastily built defenses of various human powers.
The problem was that there were way too many areas to cover.
Was the Red Association strong? Undoubtedly.
Did the mechers have enough warships, first-class multipurpose mechs and high-ranking mechs to cover each and every single star system across all of the zones that bordered alien space?
No way!
The answer was no different when the forces of the Red Fleet, the Terran Alliance and the Rubarthan Pact were also taken into consideration.
The cold hard truth was that humanity had too little time to transfer enough personnel and war materiel to the new frontier. The Great Severing occurred too soon, preventing the humans from completely consolidating their foothold in the Red Ocean.
