Under the command of [[Captain]] [[Jonathan Wells]], the local [[Stewart Protectorate Militia]] garrison refused to surrender and marched out of New Edinburgh to battle the Nova Cat forces, only to learn that the Nova Cats were not prepared to extend ''[[zellbrigen]]'' to the Word of Blake forces - Rosse declared that the Word of Blake was subject to a [[Trial of Annihilation]].

− As of the end of May, local news broadcasts issued by [[Kristina Greenberg]], an anchor for a local [[Voice of Truth]] affiliate, declared that the campaign on Stewart was currently an uneasy stalemate. Following the battle around New Edinburgh a number of locals apparently seized a number of ''[[Planetlifter]]'' aircraft and turned them into kamikaze aircraft by packing them with explosives and attempting to fly them into the allied coalition transports gathered around the initial landing zone. Only one such ''Planetlifter'' was believed to have managed to actually hit one of the coalition [[DropShip]]s, but this was enough to pull the Nova Cat forces back into a defensive formation around the target landing zone.<ref name="JHS:Tp46"/> + As at the end of May, local news broadcasts issued by [[Kristina Greenberg]], an anchor for a local [[Voice of Truth]] affiliate, declared that the campaign on Stewart was currently an uneasy stalemate.
