The drop ships are returning fire, and you know those pilots will do everything they can to protect themselves. But you can see on your tactical display that the Hoplite line is already collapsing where Fourth Platoon is breaking.
"All Foxtrot units," you order, "Advance!"
Your troopers break from cover and begin running up the street, moving in cover formation to protect against flank attacks. You hold back momentarily, frantically tapping section orders into your display and checking on the movement of the other platoons. Shah arrives with the rear guard, all the troopers caked in dust from the drop ship battle still raging in the square.
"All Foxtrot units in motion," he gasps.
You rise and sprint with him across the intersection, spotting the first flashes of gunfire one block ahead. Your lead troopers report enemy engagement on the circuit.
