I Am The Swarm

The commander of the front forces understood very well that if this breakout failed, the ships trapped here would be in grave danger.

At this moment, he made a desperate decision: abandon defense against attacks from the other three directions and focus all efforts on breaking through to the rear, regardless of losses. Every ship that could escape was a victory.

The current formation of the front forces had the Troi fleet, originally the vanguard, now covering the rear. The fleets of the other two civilizations were positioned on either flank, while the center was filled with damaged but still operational ships.

This decision meant that the Troi fleet covering the rear would suffer heavy losses. But in this situation, leading by example and working together was their only hope for survival.

Seeing the Troi take on the most difficult task, the other two civilizations had no complaints. The three races quickly unified their efforts and began a fierce assault toward their original direction.

At the same time, the ships on the outer layer of the fleet switched to remote control mode, and their crews transferred to smaller ships heading toward the inner fleet.

The outer-layer ships had been abandoned. They would serve as defensive barriers, fighting to the last moment. Meanwhile, the damaged ships that had been hiding in the center of the formation also began to move outward after their crews were evacuated.

With these abandoned ships acting as shields, the coalition’s defensive capabilities improved. However, every advantage comes with a drawback. These ships were originally meant to block the Swarm’s attacks with their hulls.

But as these ships were gradually destroyed, losing their ability to adjust their angles, their wreckage began to obstruct the coalition’s line of sight and firepower.
