An hour after Max noticed how many troops were missing compared to yesterday, another large transport ship arrived full of Koleska troops, but this one was in much worse shape, with visible combat damage and venting fires in multiple spots.
Now the change had made sense, the fresh troops here had been cycled to the front lines, and the ones that had taken the worst casualties had been moved to this back line space station next to the anomaly in order to repair and recover from their last deployment.
That wasn't going to make their job here any easier, but it did have some promise as far as the expected frequency of attacks went.
If they were sending troops here to recover, it must not be the most frequently attacked location, which meant that perhaps the two of them might not be worked to death while they defended the anomaly from the Arisen Army.
