FLAMIA ISLAND is not so far the unqualified success the public require. Hexagon command has approved the insertion of Joan of Arc in theatre. To further reinforce the rightness of our cause, Bravo Lance, of the Knights Hospitaller, will act as escort.

Intel indicated foes of non specific ID. Highest probability = Tohaa. Our spotters report the enemy is making heavy use of primitive camouflage, rudimentary REMs and even packs of alien beasts. Best fit to profile: Ariadna forces. Bravo Lance was almost at entry point when an observer crawled over a roof and aimed his rudimentary laser pointer at Joan’s escort. Brother Santos turned and faced him but his shot went wide and they were targeted for enemy artillery. Multiple rocket strikes hammered their position. Faith and Power-Armour ensured only minor injuries were sustained. Sensors sweeps indicate a line of enemies overlooking the AO.

Joan sprang into action and led Bravo Lance around the corner. A prolonged firefight ensued between her and three terrorists watching her approach. Two enemy Tankhunters were felled but a Spetsnaz took several hits and remained standing. Joan sustained multiple wounds and expired on site due to shock, before the Hospitaller Doctor could intervene. Sergeant-Sniper Gabriel revealed himself, and quickly eliminated both the enemy rocket platform and a Foxtrot that attempted to interdict him. With the enemy defensive line suppressed, Bravo Lance advanced. Sergeant-Observer Angelo revealed himself in his forward position.

The Ariadnan forces devoted their energies to reviving the Spetsnaz and TankHunters. After much effort, they had them revived and some advanced elements moved forward. They were unable to fire on Bravo Lance so sent an Antipodes pack to flank them.

A Hospitaller Dropship inserted Sergeant Michael on the flank. He fell almost immediately to enemy fire. However, Bravo Lance pushed forward and set themselves covering the approaches to their position in a central building. The chaos caused by the loss of Joan limited their actions but they fell back on faith, training, and long experience as a fighting unit, and reestablished order.

The Ariadnan counterattack proved unable to dislodge Bravo Lance. The Hospitallers were in a good place to push back with overwhelming force on one flank. Due to the lack of enemy visors, Brothers Gabriel and Angelos had the other locked down.

Theatre command assessment: Loss of Joan to be concealed while Aleph provides replacement. She was incapacitated by Terrorists using weapons violating the Concilium Convention and all loyal citizens should pray for her quick recovery.
