Despite the coalition defense, they would probably have been wiped out if not for Lenardon and the ''Promise'';<ref name="JHS:Tp73+"/> Lenardon deliberately put the ''Promise'' in a position where the ''Lioness'' could destroy it, but from which it could also drop a pinpoint orbital bombardment on the Forty-seventh Shadow Division as the ''Manei Domini'' risked a move into open terrain to try and flank Stone's Lament. The ''Promise'' was lost, but the bombardment combined with a savage counterattack by the Lament allowed Stone's forces to carry the day, but the ''Manei Domini'' forces fell back into the cities and forced the coalition forces to pursue them.<ref name="JHS:Tp73+">''Jihad Hot Spots: Terra'', pp. 73–74: "Victory At New Home"</ref>
