Four cruisers and seven destroyers from the Crokorean Navy approached the newly discovered island of Geropia, where defending forces were thin on the ground.
.
FA-12 Razorbacks and Dark Arrows made the first attack on the Crokorean force. The Razorbacks destroyed the destroyer's radar whilst the Dark Arrows singled out a cruiser and sunk it. The enemy forces were rendered blind.
.
That night the SWS Indomitable charged, firing off its missiles into the enemy ships. She snuck in amongst them and opened fire with her torpedoes and main guns, sinking two destroyers. As dawn broke the next day the Razorbacks returned and sunk a cruiser that had been damaged the day before, but lost two aircraft to heavy flak.
.
Believing they were in the presence of a larger force the Crokorean Navy turned away from Geropia. However they ran into the advancing Parshain Third Armada.
.
The two remaining cruisers were rapidly destroyed by air strikes by Kateraxes and the five surviving destroyers scattered. Three were located and destroyed by the Third Armada and another was found a week later by a flight of Razorbacks and sunk. One destroyer remains at large.
.
A permanent force of eight Razorbacks, four Dark Arrows, six Hellfire MAD-T defence turrets, six Black Hawks, four Leonardo Darts, twelve Earthquake ALS light tanks, two Drifter-C(T) tankers and 1000 men has been stationed in Port Jellicoe to defend Geropia. Two Scorpion-class torpedo boats will also be stationed on the island.
.
Without air cover the Crokorean Navy suffered very disproportionate losses.
