So Lennenkampf was the one embarrassed by the exploding transport ploy Dusty pulled off during Reuenthal’s siege of Iserlohn and by Yang’s feint when he came to support in the Battle of the Black Hole that happened before Vermillion.
I always loved the twist with Lebello backstabbing Yang because he was put in a no win position. It’s a good subverts your expectations plot but they’ve put down the groundwork with Lebello as a character that its an extra twist from the usual FPA leadership tries to screw Yang over.
