None of his ships were down in the atmosphere, but the H’kar under his command were. Their Destar Conduits were far more efficient at wrecking unarmored infrastructure than anything Star Force had, and now that the defense shields were breached on several lizard colonies he’d sent his allies down to target key facilities to cripple the lizards’ regrowth rather than trying for wholesale slaughter. That list of targets was constructed by Greg personally for each assault, not wanting to leave anything up to chance or his subordinates, and the H’kar had grown to trust in his judgement and now followed his orders to the letter. That hadn’t always been the case, but after many years of fighting side by side with Star Force and learning from them the number one lesson they’d picked up was that the trailblazers had no equal when it came to strategy…and the fact that their ships survived more engagements when one of the Humans was in command. Greg had already sent down the list of targets, which spared the lizards main habitation areas and food storage/production facilities but targeted all other industry and the growth pods.
