Line 53:
=== Destruction of the Imperial Fleet ===
On 14 September 2458, the Azyeri fleet mobilised and began moving to link up with the Fazarian fleet. On 20 September 2458, the High Kingdoms' navy would do the same and mobilise in the Gulf of Kloresa.
On 27 September 2458, the faux battle of Pireta Strait would begin and end. The Ceironian air force would launch 1210 air-to-surface missiles while out of the range of the Karkuss navy. They knew through Fazarian espionage that the majority of Karkuss ships were retrofitted from the 2440s and lacked up to date radar technology and thus were unequipped to handle a large barrage of ASMs. They had an accuracy of almost exactly fifty percent, with over 600 missiles landing and destroying the Karkuss imperial fleet in minutes. Ceironian officials stated that the missile barrage was overkill, confidentially stating that 258 ASMs would've been enough to completely destroy the fleet and pitied the extra loss of missiles. Following this exchange, the Ceironian fleet would retreat to Fazar to refuel and restock. The fleet would be restocked by 3 October.

== Aftermath ==
Karkuss joined DMSO. The government would announce a new naval upgrade in the May 2460 budget. It would become mandatory for every ship in the navy to be fit with a radar system and upgraded anti-air guns. The Vengeance, the prized possession of their navy, would have a new VLS system with 10 ASMs on each side of the ship. The new submarine carriers would also fit ASMs with torpedo and hanger points to be completed by 2463.
On 30 November 2458, Fazar would join the High Commonwealth. Lothyran also joins, but they aren't relevant to the conflict.
