The battle wound down after the three ace mechs of the Golden Skull Alliance disarmed the orven battleship and disabled many of her systems.
By this time, only a handful of wheednar warships retained the ability to resist, but their straining transphasic energy shields were already faltering under the combined attacks of thousands of mechs!
The other alien warships had either been torn apart or drifted lifelessly in space.
The mech pilots had all been ordered to refrain from inflicting excessive damage to the alien warships.
While it was not possible for all of the mechs to show perfect restraint, the amount of relatively intact warships drifting into space was more than satisfactory!
The expeditionary fleet had already begun to accelerate forward by this time.
The main battle was pretty much over at this point. The mechs had already reformed into units and begun to secure the expanding debris field.
