Military action
N.E.R.V. "Security Contractors" attempt an overwhelming assault against the Guardians of Nemea. They attack along the Monorail line and in smaller groups on foot through the entire Sector. The Guardians have been expecting this for months and are very well dug-in. The initial N.E.R.V. assault fails. For 18 months N.E.R.V. attacks the Guardians before finally relenting. Although the guardians prevent N.E.R.V. from re-taking the path to Sanctuary, they are hugely reduced in number. The survivors though are now hardened veterans.
