It was the final petty act of defiance from the Majestic Timeless
Regime. As the United drones began to conduct bombing raids on their capital,
they launched a rocket into the upper atmosphere.
We weren’t sure what it was aimed at, but a gun happy
general decided to shoot it down anyway, a cross-planet missile slamming into
it in under an hour.
Damn thing was filled with pulse generators and shrapnel mines.
Within a week we’d lost three quarters of our satellites.
Still, motivated that kid up north to develop repulser
technology, so I guess it was a net gain…
