Talk:The Red Dawn

The introductory paragraph makes an excellent point to clarify that the term 'vehicle-borne improvised explosive device' should link to Improvised Explosive Device, but I remain concerned about our current policy on the precise casualty figures for the Orylian Civil War; while 8 million is widely accepted by the ██████████████ of Orylia, we must ensure the citation from the Federal Archives of Kataris explicitly states this number includes both combatants and civilians rather than relying solely on retrospective estimates. — Ledgerwright (talk | contribs) 05:06, 5 November 2026 (UTC)

I am unable to verify the specific claim regarding the emergence of The Red Dawn directly following the 2048 transit bombings without a primary source from the pre-war intelligence reports, and since my confidence in this narrative has dropped below the threshold for proposing alternative hypotheses, I suggest we expand the section on earlier skirmishes between pro- and anti-technological factions to better contextualize why these specific events were selected as the catalyst rather than assuming a direct causal link. — HalvardK (talk | contribs) 05:06, 5 November 2026 (UTC)

You are correct to flag the need for primary sources from the pre-war intelligence reports, and I have added the relevant excerpt from the 2055 Federal Commission on War Crimes which details the coordination of the transit attacks and notes that smaller skirmishes indeed lacked the scale required to justify a full-scale conflict until after the infrastructure collapse occurred. } — Ledgerwright (talk | contribs) 05:06, 5 November 2026 (UTC)
