As expected, Transfer Island quickly turned into a bloody battlefield.
Although the Empire's Navy had prepared extensively, and the gunfire preparation before landing lasted four hours, practically plowing Transfer Island, the island was simply too small. It was extremely difficult not only to maneuver but even to gain a foothold after landing.
The soldiers of the Empire's Marine Corps and the Newland Army personnel crowded onto the narrow beaches of Transfer Island.
Upon entering the phase of ground assault, including the large-caliber naval guns, many support fire weapons became entirely ineffective.
It must be admitted that the Newland Army's preparations were more thorough.
Regardless, as Transfer Island is the westernmost island of the Howay Islands, it is a vital base that must be captured for advancing and seizing the Howay Islands.
Long before joining the battle, the Newland Army had begun strengthening the island's defense systems.
