Osea's ground troops were about to complete preparations to launch a large-scale offensive against Yuktobania. With this offensive, they would be able to cut a straight path right into the heart of the country and make it to the capital city, Cinigrad, in a very short amount of time. However, it was then that the Hrimfaxi, a Scinfaxi-class Submarine, revealed itself for the very first time (unlike the Scinfaxi, which was publicized years before the war broke out). As the ground forces began the operation, the Hrimfaxi fired ballistic missiles at long-range from the Razgriz Straits, over 700 miles away. Despite the missile attack, the offensive continued, but Osea decided to send the Wardog Squadron out to destroy the submarine before it launched another missile at the ground forces.
