Now that the Great War is over, the Queen's government has decided that its high time to re-assert its claims to the northern townships of Oerberg.
Troops and supplies have been collected with great secrecy and sent over the border with orders to seize Cowstead, the township capital, before Oerberg can react.
Of course, its pretty hard keep things secret on the rather porous Kapelle/Oerberg border.
