Planetary History[edit]

During the opening stages of the Jihad, forces from the Taurian Concordat invaded Electra. The Taurian forces put up a dogged resistance against efforts from the Federated Suns to remove them, but on the 7th of April 3071 the mercenary unit Hansen's Roughriders resorted to using fuel-air explosives against one of the Taurian bases, which had been dug into a canyon. When clearing the battlefield after the bombing, the Roughriders recovered Taurian nuclear weapons which had been stored in the camp.[47]
