Geography:
Port Patterson is a prominent Aurelian port located in the western coast of Aurelia, facing the Ceres Ocean. It is just north of Aubrey Air Base. The port is surrounded by forested mountains.


Leasath-Aurelia War:
Throughout the war, Leasath's army controlled the port, using its facilities to benefit their front lines. Seen as a valuable strategic point to the Leasath conquerors, the port was captured by the invading forces as quickly as possible.

Op. Prelude
Through Operation Prelude, Aurelia planned to take back the port from Leasath. Gryphus Squadron was assigned to attack and destroy all enemy vessels in and around Port Patterson. As more Leasath Naval Forces began to make their way into Port Patterson, the Gryphus Squadron of the Aurelian Air Force managed to destroy Leasath warships in and around the Port. This later lead to an operation to destroy Leasath Forces occupying Port Patterson. With Port Patterson under their control, the Aurelian Military continued to push into northern Aurelia with a steady stream of supplies.

Op. Captive City
Using the unfinished highways running through Kingshill directly to Port Patterson, Leasath's Miller Unit rushed into the poorly-defended city, retaking it almost instantaneously. To protect themselves from further Aurelian efforts to retake the city, they placed their units inside the port complex, knowing that the port facilities were essential to the Aurelian troops and they couldn't risk destroying them.
However, their plan failed, as Aurelia's ace, Gryphus One, was able to weave trough the complex and carefully place his attacks, rendering their cover useless. The Miller Unit armor deployed to the complex, as well as reinforcements and supporting fighters, were utterly destroyed with little to no damage to the facilities, and thus the city and it's important facilities were recovered.

ACCREDITATION:

[Raptor 1 'Dragonheart']

Cynocrine was deployed to take back SANTA ELVA by the Special Forces HAMLET Unit, which you can stop in 8B before they arrive. Also, if you don't destroy the Miller Unit 3rd Artillery Division on 4A, They invade and you have to destroy them when they're hiding within the port's fuel complex.

Fixed.

And oh my god, no one ever noticed that someone confused the Santa Elva recapture mission with Port Patterson?

>_<

[Raptor 1 'Dragonheart']

Sure they both got recaptured, but the difference is HOW they were recaptured.

Now it doesn't mention the re-retake (sorry about that) at all.

EDIT: added the pictures and Op. Captive City. Unfortunately, one of the pictures is dead, even though I uploaded it just days ago. I hope this doesn't happen to all other ACX pictures I uploaded. In any case, I have a backup of all of them.
