A city trying to assemble a defense
| Person / place | Shown role |
|---|---|
| Colonel Trench | COG officer directing the military response. |
| Captain Akila Grey | Registers Bravo's details and oversees deployment. |
| Kalona's mayor | Argues for the city's civilians amid military priorities. |
| City Hall | Makeshift command center and medical triage base. |
The mayor and Trench disagree over priorities. Bravo waits for orders; Marcus's status as a war hero does not remove him from the chain of command. The scene presents the response as hurried and strained, rather than a squad already in control of the invasion.[3]
Bravo is part of a wider force
- First contacts
Maco
A lone Gear holds a grocery store with a Vulcan.
- Regrouping
City Hall command
Bravo registers and receives its deployment orders.
- Forward base
Tai and Theta Squad
Oria Stadium becomes a place to regroup and equip.
The campaign follows Bravo's viewpoint even though the catastrophe is global. Other squads and civilians make the wider defense visible without moving the story to a separate protagonist.[2]
COG, Gear and Bravo
