Central California Coast

A large contingent of the IKN fleet sent to the west coast have been placed along the coast of California. As a signal is sent from the flagship Lord Pemberton, the fleet opens up with 204, 53, and 46cm HE gunfire, pulverizing the Federation beach defenses, along with some further inland. This bombardment continues for several hours, after which landing barges approach the shore with their massive cargo.

The ramps lower, and hundreds of assault platforms of both Elephant and Camel types stride ashore. The charge is led by IMG colonel Alexander Veers, mastermind behind the walker concept and shrewd tactician. As they come under fire from Federation troops, they open up with their ventral RFGs, mowing down enemy troops by the thousands as their own battleship grade armor shrugs off most enemy anti tank rounds. They move to clear the beachhead of enemy troops, and then their own troops, kept safely encased in the armor of the walkers, are deployed down the sides of the walkers to perform their tasks.
