Casualties were heavy, it was enough for the Terran Command to reconsider their strategy going forward as the bugs have put them on the back foot for the rest of the war. The General in command sounded the retreat, while holding his own unit back to support the retreating forces, needless to say, the General 'bought it' that day. Casualties mounted within the hour and for every thousand bugs they killed, one Infantry man dies - A net win for the bugs - the situation was getting desperate. The K-9 unit's neodogs blew themselves up against the enemy out of sheer shock, leaving the Mobile Infantry without any support. The Operation involved landing K-9 and Mobile infantry units on the surface to secure and hold a beachhead to help sustain the assault, however the invasion failed completely as units were overwhelmed by the defensive bug forces, and were not able to secure any landing zones. Operation Bughouse, the first large scale offensive against the Bugs on their home planet of Klendathu.
