Second Battle of Anton

The Second Battle of Anton was a conflict that took place in the capital city of Anton, which was controlled by the group "Only The Hated" (OTH). 
This battle was motivated by previous skirmishes and the longstanding grudge stemming from the Fluke Creek Bus Massacre.
==Background==
When armed forces of the Church of Yelloman (CoY) entered the outskirts of Anton, they initially met resistance from 10 fighters from the group "Only the Hated" and engaged in combat for a half hour. When the fighting subsided, 1 OTH member was killed and 3 others were left wounded, and only 1 CoY member suffered noteworthy injuries. The OTH members retreated further into Anton, leading the CoY forces to pursue them.
===Counter Attack===
OTH reinforcements linked up with the retreating members and successfully counter attacked the CoY. A firefight lasting just 15 minutes in the woods North-West of Anton left 3 CoY members dead and around 5 others injured, 5 armed Rangers scouting the area would engage in the battle against the OTH before retreating to Kodiak Airport.
===Stalemate===
OTH suffered 2 wounded and none killed in the ordeal. Pushing their luck, OTH forces continued their assault to push the CoY fighters back into the mountains. However the CoY fighters put up stiff resistance at the edge of the woods leading the OTH forces to halt their assault and regroup back at Anton. No serious injuries resulted from the final engagement.
===Efforts of Cassidy===
Brigadier "Cassidy" of USGC (before E9) EO was present during this battle and played a key role in the defense of Anton. Despite the CoY's initial advantage and efforts to push into the city, Cassidy's leadership and tactics helped turn the tide of the battle in favor of OTH. Despite heavy losses on both sides, OTH was able to hold onto the city and turned out victorious in the Battle of Anton.
