A Xian tank exits a portal just within visual range and draws a target lock on the Manas above.
The first missile exits its rack, duplicating several times and proceeding at lightspeed to the first Manas.
The Hau barrier is bypassed by the intense speed, and at least one missile hits the energy shield before the others, its Felnas/Intangibility warhead taking effect and destroying the shield to allow the other, identical missiles through.
Assuming success, this attack is continued on the other Manas.

After what happened the last time, the ships now have Slow fields around them. The missile is frozen after passing the Hau barrier.

Their absurd speed allows them to traverse the barrier in under a second and strike the Manas.
Lohraz is struck by the initial blasts, which demolish the abandoned interceptors and tanks on standby. He survives, however, thanks to his Ignika fragment.
The area where the central fortress once stood is vaporized. Though the position is still fortified, the RMS now have no central building to defend -- only many outer walls.
On Xia's cue, an array of 149 NAHTs, 150 Aki ships, and 300 Woodpeckers arrives by way of teleportation. They concentrate their immense firepower on a swathe of one wall. Should any interceptors somehow have survived, they soon have a high-velocity meeting with the AA systems crammed into many of the tanks and ships.

The gun batteries on the wall work their magic, firing devastating energies including Jutlin, Aging, Felnas, RaR, and Disintegration.
Accurahks on the wall fire HPCs and Panrahk cause explosions inside the cockpits of the vehicles.
Long-range artillery fires from the two-hour-line, lobbing shells filled with viruses. This will take a while to reach the target.

Repeller shields and Hau protect the NAHTs from energy blasts. The Aki ships simply decide the best defense is a good offense and shoot the offending guns with ship-scale cannons as soon as possible.
A lucky thing the majority of these are being piloted by an uploadtoran built for the job. Damage is done by the exploding cockpits, but the pilots are difficult to harm without destroying the vehicles. The HPCs... hit. The Aki ships do their best to cool themselves with their portable lake instead of die while the NAHTs have to make do with hoping Hau and Repellers will block the heat well enough.
Woodpeckers strafe the walltop with weakening bullet machine guns. NAHTs fire a torrent of pulse bolts, HPC blasts, and railgun bullets at anything that shoots.

The Rahkshi are unfortunately vulnerable to dedage and the Woodpeckers pick off the Rahkshi on the walltops.
Guns inside the walls open fire with the exact same effects. Explosion Rahkshi continue using their powers on the Aki and NAHTs specifically.
The shells are halfway there...
Interceptanks fly over the walls, Hau already up, and launch Silent Storm rockets at the Woodpeckers.

Does felnas do anything to hau
Explosion rahkshi pick off a few of the computers containing uploadtoran in the Aki and NAHTs. They are targeted ever more aggressively in response.
The Woodpeckers attempt to dodge with kakama+jet speed and teleportation?
When the RaR appears, the rockets teleport -- inconveniently into the Woodpeckers.
Walp. The Woodpeckers are presumably exploded.
The ships and tanks concentrate their fire on one part of the wall, hoping to make a hole that the NAHTs can go through and shoot the rahkshi.
The shield eventually drops and the shots batter the wall, blowing a hole through. The Rahkshi hide on either side on the hole and continue affecting the ships and tanks with Explosion.

Several more tanks and ships fall. The rahkshi are blown up with the explosive parts of the attackers' arsenal. AoE is fun. The Tanks charge!

The ground suddenly gives way from the dirt just in front of the wall to a line several hundred yards away. Thick vines rapidly grow over the pit's exit.

The tanks fall, but the aki ships continue their assault. The tanks burn the vines with HPC arrays.

The vines are growing stronger with the heat -- and coiling down toward the tanks.
The Rahkshi make a last concerted effort to Explode the Aki as the front section of the wall comes down.
