Planetary History[edit]

Early History[edit]

The world was discovered by the TAS Peekaboo.[34] Stotzing was not an easy planet to settle, something not known until after the first colony, Eisenstadt, was founded in 2598. The colony failed after less than a decade under the combined weight of repeated crop failures caused and exacerbated by a voracious bacterial ecosystem, with the records from the failed settlement sparse and while subsequent colonists were able to avoid the fate of the first, the location of Alt-Eisenstadt was lost to historians for almost five centuries until 3085. The final throes of the Jihad caused the announcement of the discovery to be relegated to the small number of archeologists and historians interested in lost colonies.[5]

Jihad[edit]

The Green Ghosts landed just over a year after the discovery was announced. A full scale archeological expedition had begun a mere two months earlier and was only recently up to full speed, and thinking this could happen, the First Marik Protectors had been sent to train the local militia, Stotzing Militia. When the Green Ghosts moved towards the archeological site the Marik Protectors and Stotzing Militia mobilized to protect it.[5] After raiding the archeological site the Green Ghosts began their retreat to their DropShip. The Marik forces were bound and determined to not allow them to successfully escape. Near the Green Ghost landing zone the forces came together for their final clash.[35]

Military Deployment[edit]
