As the Mooks intensify their advances, so does the Infinite Empire intensify its defenses and counterstrikes. The Infinite Empire will not back down from this confrontation until the Mooks are properly purged, cleansed and killed.

Fighter and bomber squadrons roam the airspace unchallenged, raining torpedoes and blasterfire onto groundside Mook advances. Several more Acclamator-class Assault Transports are headed towards this area via Hyperspace, carrying within them Clone Troopers from disparate legions and regiments. Following them is a Strike Cruiser of the Black Templars Space Marine Chapter, loaded with a detachment of a hundred or so Astartes.

The 11,000 Clone Troopers on the ground are using their heavy armor and tactical superiority to maximum advantage. Deployed turrets and gun emplacements tore through hordes of Mooks, who seemed to have no sense of self preservation. Tanks and walkers trampled more suicidal Mooks under their feet or treads. Sniper and MG positions on high ground allowed for unrestricted slaughter of the Mooks.

The events in Citopia are broadcasted across the galaxy in the form of a frontline news broadcast. The footage first shows Mooks conducting violence upon unsuspecting civilians, with the voiceover stating that these black creatures are vile xenos intending to disrupt peace and cause chaos. Then it switches to the Riot Troopers holding them back, with additional Empire forces evacuating civilians to the safer side of town. Finally the footage switches to that of the Baneblade superheavy tank firing into a swarm of Mooks, with the voiceover stating that the Infinite Empire has deployed forces to maintain order and hold back the supposed xeno invasion. Throughout it all, the Clone Troopers are shown as valiant defenders of humanity as they placed their lives on the line to save civilians and hold back the attacks.

Just another day in Infinite Empire propaganda.

Baneblade superheavy tank with the Emperor and his Royal Guards headed for the beacon. Though they are extending outside of firecover of the main Clone Trooper forces, the tank's weapons allows it to move unimpeded through the hot zone.
