Thermolia has suffered two invasions by the Evil weeds in the Last few cycles. In the first attack
in the north, the Weeds overran a frontier defense force, but have not advanced into Thermolian space. They have probed, but these have been destroyed by units of the Thermolian Home Fleet. It had been hoped that this invasion could be dealt with on ground that was favorable to Thermolia, but this does not seem to be the case.

In the second Invasion, a fleet of Thistle Class DD’s attacked a Thermolian border defense force in the central region. This force of 1 old DD and two ancient FF’s had recently been reinforced by four light cruisers from the Home Fleet. One of the ships was a new heavy gunned unit. In a hard fought fight, the Evil weeds were utterly decimated. With no loss of Thermolian units, the mass wave attack of the Weeds was turned back with 100% casualties. Our new weedkilling beams have proven to be most effective.

In the south, a condition of stalemate still exists. The lines are intermingled, and no offensive activities are expected any time soon.
