From Maximillian's briefing, Ivan learnt that the aliens he had played an important role in vanquishing were the only group within a 4km² area. After Maximillian and his group had touched down from their helicarrier, an alien battleship had emerged shortly after. The group's best guess was that the ship had come to aid its three super-powered comrades in battling the man clad in white.
Maximillian had used a sophisticated, portable anti-battleship railgun from their aircraft's arsenal to shoot down the alien battleship. He instantly instructed his soldiers to spread out in groups of at least thirteen units, and they obeyed. Originally, he had stayed back with more than a hundred units to protect the helicarrier. Unfortunately, a turn of events forced him and ten squads of soldiers to go to Battle Site A to support the group already there.
