The Kaiser had been informed that the colonial defense force had fallen within the week, despite their superior training, technology, and tactics. Within a few hours of hearing the message, Kaiser Waldemar had authorized a full-scale counterattack and invasion. The Vornehm navy, after several hard-fought naval battles, managed to secure the arrival of a massive army to liberate the colony. Armed with many new pieces of equipment that their mainland counterparts had yet to be given, such as the Gewehr 1910 bolt-action rifle, the M10 Kampfsturzhelm helmet, and the Sturm MG 4 machine gun. From Caister, they would march straight into Fuso, eventually reaching the capital, and securing their surrender. The Faresian forces had fought valiantly, but were no match for the advanced military might of the Vornehm armies.
