After a crushing defeat during the battle of Obani Gemni the Blargian Federation decided to take a new course of action. They decided to launch a two-pronged attack, one at the fleet in orbit, and another at the ground forces on Obani Draco. The ground battle of Obani Draco was most likely one of the largest tactical errors in Blargian history. With the death of the highly skilled Field Marshal Drell, the Chairmen Drek orders his second-in-command, General Tonok to lead the remaining paratroopers in the battle. As a bonus, he was also promoted to Field Marshal which gave him command of all land forces in the system.
