Story:
(Arm Briefing Center, Sector X, Black Iron)
"As we all know, metal is the most prized resource among the Core.  They have conquered many worlds and covered them with these alloys to fuel their war efforts.  So far to date, we have successfully adapted our forces to Core's metal conquest, but it is not enough.  In the prescence of abundant metal,  Core is like a virus--nearly indestructable.

"Perhaps, it is time we make them think the same of us  What do I mean, you ask?  I mean this:  Arm will soon dominate Core's metal worlds.  Our strategy will soon sharpen through much training, and Arm will reign supreme!

"Our elite scouts--the best--have a newly discovered "crude metal" planet, Black Iron, in their possesion.  So far, no sign of Core influence has been found on this plane; thus, we conclude that it is there for our taking.  High command orders us to take strategic positiong on this planet for the future of constructing an outpost.  Within days, our main gate for transport to the crude metal world will be done.  We will begin sending in our forces soon after that.  Air borne support will be the first to fly through the gates, as I feel our Stealth Fighters will do the best job of scouting and handling any suprise that may come up.  Our Construciton personnel will be transported under support by Kbot Infantry, while our slower, heavier assault tanks will be taken over the threshold by Freedom Fighter Alpha Squadron and Brawler Beta Squadron.

"It is estimated that at our current rate of transfer, the crude metal world will be updated to Class B Heavily fortified outpost within the next couple of days.  I recommend that all 
of you take up training time on this new planet and get the feel of our new "home."  

"Core is suspicious of our slight withdrawal from Sector 109C, which they believed to be of strategic importance to us.  This means they are will be sending massive scouting parties very soon.  When they find us on Black Iron--and they will--be prepared for all out war.

"Core can not be allowed a foothold on our metal planet.  Black Iron belongs to Arm.  Arm FOREVER!"
