IC:

The Millenium preparations have been detected for sometime, but the AFOH SOUTHCOM is still surprised by the ferocity of the attack. All bases near the frontline are heavily damaged, with 3 Tourville-class heavy cruisers sunk in port and scores of other warships disabled, and over 60 aircraft destroyed on the ground. Still, many Diable FA-6M fighters are able to scramble and intercept the Millenoum formations and shoot down a number of bombers and escorts.

AFOH ground forces initially reel from the massive assault but start falling back on prepared positions, making skillful use of the terrain (as Millenium advances are channeled through 2 narrow corridors north and south of the Owen Stanley Range) with mobile light infantry contesting every inch before gradually falling back, and artillery and Griffon A2IG ground-attack aircraft bombarding Millenium formations as they concentrate to advance.

A formation of 12 Werewolf FACs and 12 Franklin LCS supported by Diable fighters assembles and heads toward the Millennium fleet off the southern coast. The Franklins then peel off, moving closer to the shore, and start firing HE shells into the naval infantry formations, destroying beached vehicles, equipment and supplies. More Griffons swoop overhead firing 105mm AP shells, adding to the carnage.
