With a few modifications from yours truly.

After facing off in the Balfour Plain, Arbrau and SAU forces engage in a stalemated war after an SAU reconnaissance fighter crashes. This was due to Ahab Reactor interference from Arbrau's mobile suits.

Even though both the SAU and Arbrau's defense forces are inexperienced, Gjallarhorn's Outer Earth Orbit Regulatory Fleet and Tekkadan's Earth Branch are reinforcing each respective side. To make matters worse, all transportation, diplomatic, and military access into Arbrau have been blocked and controlled by Galan and Radiche. That hinders negotiations or entry for Tekkadan or McGillis.

Elsewhere, Gjallarhorn's garrisons in Arbrau have been forced to remain on their bases; unable to intervene or report outside Arbrau.

Takaki, Aston, and their comrades struggle as they engage in non-stop skirmishes; their wits and instincts dulling as they are forced to rely on Galan.

Meanwhile, the crew of the Hotarubi arrive within the Earth orbit, but are not permitted to launch a shuttle due to Arbrau's state of emergency. At the last minute, McGillis boards his Graze Ritter to end the stalemate between both factions.
