Line 105:
Line 105: The senior Lyran officer after the destruction of the headquarters was [[Lieutenant Colonel]] [[Nadine Killson]], commander of Able Battalion of the Twenty-third Arcturan Guards. Taking on the immense responsibility of coordinating the defense, Killson realized that the Lyran forces were in danger of being cut off and arranged her troops to try and block the DCMS attack. The result was a brutal close-quarters fight on the fringes of the spaceport; fighting against the Alshain Regulars on one front and the Legion of Vega on the other. Killson's [['Mechs]] were outnumbered three to one and had to use conventional forces. The Arcturan [[infantry]] and [[Combat Vehicle|armor]] made daring attacks and staged point-blank ambushes against the Combine 'Mechs, even though many of the actions would prove futile.<ref name="H:3039p70+"/> The senior Lyran officer after the destruction of the headquarters was [[Lieutenant Colonel]] [[Nadine Killson]], commander of Able Battalion of the Twenty-third Arcturan Guards.
