Well, I hope this message reaches somebody - I certainly trust you didn't assume I *died* the last few months.
Commander,
I am providing whatever details I can on a rather massive engagement. While it is somewhat uncommon that you hear from me, this engagement began with my team, so here is my format report.
Captain Nibori and I were surveying the situation with the "Piece of Blue Sky" venues that appeared in the Union Hill area. The area was abandoned, completely, and thus, we only had one escort each (Operatives AwakenedPotato and Renesis), who were nearby. Without any warning, we were attacked by unknown programs. While reports of this are growing, the scope was unfathomed. There were dozens of these "Sleepwalkers" – we were nearly overwhelmed.
I must say, the battle went fantastically well under the circumstances, Sir. We managed to hold them off, but frankly, they kept coming.

I attempted several calls for help, which were answered by a few Zion operatives, but too few to hold our own. AwakenedPotato fell back to a Richland data node and placed a general call for any and all assistance - which we received in enormous numbers from almost every organization. It turned into quite a battle, Sir. While we were reinforced by almost every side, we honestly barely got through it in one piece. I'm told that the battle is still continuing, though with diminished numbers of enemies.

(Oh, and on a side note - those interesting red pill "security forces" that seemed so bent on policing us were, of course, nowhere to be seen when an armada attacked. It makes me question who's behind all of this, and if these programs are in fact, working for them, rather than against them.)
Oh, and please pass this next part onto Anome. As much as I enjoy his banter while on my missions, perhaps he should be more cautious next time he insults the overall command structure of the E Pluribus Neo extremist group. As you can see below, their command officials chose to visit the battlescene and provide orders while the action was still going. Despite the fact that the entire first quarter of the war was exclusively fought by members of my team, I was unable to reach any form of Zion military command.

This is the extent of the usable data I was able to observe.
