Myth Platoon, operating under the banner of the 9th Assault Corps, has been deployed to the outer rim industrial world of Virellus IV following the sudden loss of contact with a forward reconnaissance team sent to investigate confirmed CIS activity in the region. The recon unit managed to transmit fragmented sensor data indicating unusual Separatist movements and possible experimental infrastructure before all communications were abruptly severed. No distress signal was received, and repeated attempts to re-establish contact have failed, leaving their fate unknown.

In response to the escalating uncertainty and the likelihood of a concealed CIS blacksite operation, Myth Platoon formally requested the assistance of additional allied Republic units to support a full planetary reclamation effort. Reinforcements have now been authorized, and multiple allied units are en route to assist in the operation. While Myth Platoon will spearhead deep insertion and high-risk objectives, allied forces will provide the necessary manpower and support to expand the operation into a coordinated effort to retake the planet from CIS control.

Initial scans of Virellus IV reveal widespread electronic interference, unstable power grids, and fragmented CIS activity concentrated around major industrial zones. Enemy forces appear active but disorganized across several regions, suggesting either a disrupted command structure or an ongoing covert operation interfering with standard CIS coordination. The recon team’s last known transmissions strongly imply they encountered something significant enough to trigger the current planetary blackout conditions before disappearing entirely.

Myth Platoon’s objective is to re-establish control of the surface, recover any surviving members of the recon team, and uncover the source of the CIS activity on Virellus IV. With allied units now joining the fight, the operation has escalated from a reconnaissance recovery mission into a full-scale effort to dismantle CIS presence on the planet. What is discovered here may not only explain the fate of the missing team, but also expose a wider threat emerging within the sector.
