โฆ Synopsis
The orbital Battle of New Shanghai has been lost. What is left of the Allied fleet under James Somervilleโs command is in full retreat. The Imperial Marines and Colonial Militia on the planetโs surface are left alone and without support. With a Karacknid fleet in orbit and tens of thousands of ground troops being landed, it is General Johnstonโs duty to fight Humanityโs enemy to the last man. For he is the only thing delaying the Karacknid fleet from pushing on to Earth and completing their conquest of the Human Empire.
Meanwhile James must scrabble together what meagre forces he can and ready the defenses of the homeworld. With his fleet already beaten once, hope has all but been extinguished. Still, he will make his last stand and fight to the death for the sake of his family and his Empire.
