Show of strength in Shurdorf
A large military parade was today organised by Regent Jakob Premmel, to demonstrate the impregnability of the city's defences. Being the capital city of Grenzland, it is imperative to their cohesion that the city does not fall. This comes in response to massing Commonwealth forces nearby, indicating a coming offensive. Jakob Premmel is assured that the city will never be captured by the Commonwealth. He supposedly said "If one traitor sets foot into the Palace, then sack me."

From large loudspeakers set up across the city, decrees have been issued telling citizens not to leave the city, and rather that they continue to go to work as normal, or join the defence. Currently, the front lines are around ~40 miles from the city, and whilst there is light bombardment in the city itself, most bombardment is directed at the defensive lines in the outskirts and defensive redoubts. The attack will mostly be carried out by soldiers from Reisburg, though newly raised units of the National Liberation Army (NLA) will assist.
