The Battle of Old Ephyra was a major confrontation between the Coalition of Ordered Governments and the Swarm during the Swarm War. Four months and four weeks after the evacuation of Settlement 2, a Swarm victory and not long after the COG launched the UIR's Hammer of Dawn satellites into orbit with the help of the Nomads in the mission to OZP-11, Delta-One returned to New Ephyra.
From Vasgar, the Swarm followed the COG and led an attack with the Kraken, a legendary mega-creature that was harnessed by the Swarm as one of it's most powerful weapons. The Swarm creatures began emerging in large numbers across the Old Ephyra ruins under the command of Queen Reyna by catching the COG by surprise on it's home turf. Delta-One and the other Gear squads are immediately deployed to the ruins to plant the Hammer of Dawn targeting beacons in order to be able to use the Hammer of Dawn at the key strategic locations while New Ephyra which was the last bastion of humanity readied it's defenses.
