Line 31: Landing on Tukayyid's Prezno Plain, Clan Jade Falcon finds themselves under constant but low-level attack, the ComStar forces striking without warning from ambush, inflicting losses on a few isolated Clan troops then withdrawing before Jade Falcon units such as the [[5th Battle (Clan Jade Falcon)|Fifth Battle Cluster]] can even respond.
