	Both the ARM and CORE had established bases on Floodplane.  The Arm arrived first due to records found in an archeological dig had pointed to this systems coordinates. 
Upon arriving the ARM forces found low technology humans who were 
panicking because of a yearly flood that had been getting higher every
year. The ARM being their good-guy like selves built a gate to evacuate
the population. 
	The CORE noticed the beam used by the gates to transfer and 
sent its own expedition. Both sides were still gearing up for war 
when the flood hit. It as predicted was a record flood. It overwhelmed
the stone dikes constructed centuries ago by the natives, it even 
overwhelmed the giant earthen mounds constructed even earlier. As the
water rose it shorted out circuitry, both ARM and CORE alike, however,
when the water reached the gate it’s transport field sucked water 
through it which pored out on Tergiverse IV, but that is another story.
	On Floodplane the commander's self repairing abilities and 
their water resistance kept them alive, but just barely. Eventually 
the pressure became so great that it overwhelmed the gate’s field and
it to was destroyed.

	 A good deal of time passed before the commanders were brought
out of unconscious repare mode. enough to let the grass grow back 
anyway.
