One month later - November 2018
In Coldfield, the economy showed signs of recovery after the economic crisis that began in July. The unemployment rate would sink for the first time in months, the GDP grew again and police were starting to use new paraphernalia. The Coldfieldian Council, led by King Edmund Meyer, abolished some ridiculous regulations on imports. Taxes on imported products were cut and the ministeries were the target of a major overhaul to cut unnecessary spending. The Internal Affairs ministry began working on developing rural Coldfield infrastructure. However, the assassination of Internal Affairs minister John Townsend and two lieutenants of Coldfieldian Army stained the Coldfieldian Intelligence and Defense Forces' capacity of preventing such attacks. It is unknown if the "hits" are linked to the ICPA. Similiar assassinations took part in the Mountains, where a sole assassin killed the sub-commander of Mountainese National Police. The assassin was arrested and committed suicide a week later.
In the Icy Mountains, the training for six pilots for the four LIRCAS Sergeant planes began, the laptops were distributed, and several villages and small towns were visited by the Wardens, usually in the company of Allanean troops or the National Police. The intelligence work also developed in the apprehension of five ICPA installations in Siegecity, resulting in an all-time arrest of a hundred rebels. These rebels were preparing a huge attack against Warden and Police bases in the Mountainese capital outskirts, though their plan was frustrated with ease.
One month after the humiliating defeat in Snowshire where no rebel returned home, the ICPA completed their preparation for a new attack in Stronggate, the remotest town of the country, in the border with the Southern Ridge, separating the inhabited part of Newisland and the part dominated by wild, violent creatures. The town is home to ten thousand people, the second smallest town in the Republic. The rebels could invade the city at any time and the menace was unknown to both Wardens and the National Police - perhaps not to the Allanean Intelligence.
