Capture of the Nethal Archipelago will not be a trivial task. The geography of the small island chain make transporting armies especially difficult. Aware of this, Meraxis have filled Nethal Prime with as many anti-air cannons as they can and the clan possesses no means of aquatic transport.

You have been placed at the strategy board with the task of coming up with a plan to take the islands. The Meraxis 2nd Regiment is stationed on the islands, as well as a batallion of Collective mercenaries, and will be fighting on familiar soil, while the Caperion System itself is still new land to most of our troops.

The map of the area is below. The tips of Caelestis City feature high rise luxury apartment blocks, which are both a risk factor and vantage point. The first three islands of the Archipelago are within range of conventional weaponry from the top of the tower blocks, while only the closest island is able to hit us. The majority of the Meraxis military is on Nethal Prime, the largest island. The one who controls Nethal Prime controls the Archipelago.
