Emmerian partisans

The Emmerian Partisans are a group of insurgents of unknown scale that was formed at some point during the Anean Continental War. Their only appearance throughout the Fires of Liberation story arc is during a cutscene, where Melissa & Ludmilla are driving down a road in the vicinities of San Loma on their way to the capital of Gracemeria, when they're pulled over by a pick-up. After being forced out by the insurgents (and before one of the partisans is told not to shoot Ludmilla), it was only several seconds later until a hail of gunfire from the sky came & nearly hit the group. Taking this opportunity, the couple got in their vehicle & began driving away, nearly hitting a rebel in the process, heading right into the nearby field. While the gunner began firing wildly at the Estovakian A-10A overhead, it was only a few seconds later before they were all killed by gunfire.

While minor, after the beginning of the mission San Loma Assault, the Estovakian Air Command sent out an order for all aircraft involved in the partisan sweep to help defend San Loma, proving that Melissa & Ludmila's encounter with the insurgents was right before the San Loma invasion.
