These were dispersed in several places, in two continents, so Callandre decided to attack and destroy one force at a time. The Hounds landed on the continent of Gerechtland, moving towards the primary enclave. The defenders, the 433rd Solahma Trinary, emerged and engaged them with armor and infantry in a snow-covered valley. The Hounds' armor, led by Callandre's [[SM1#Variants|SM5 Field Commander]], got through the Falcon's lines, engaging them from the back and destroying their vehicle engines with precision attacks.
