==Overview==
 
==Overview==
Baker Pharmaceuticals had been in business with the Lyran Commonwealth for many years but encountered serious financial and personnel problems after losing a 300-million-[[Kroner|S-Bill]] lawsuit in [[3023]] when a batch of their synthetic molecular antibodies went toxic, killing over 100 [[Lyran Commonwealth Armed Forces]] soldiers. Like a shark smelling blood in the water, Nashan Diversified launched a takeover attempt in [[3024]], which Baker CEO John Sleeth attempted to resist by ordering his brokers to buy back all public Baker stocks at a substantially higher price than Nashan's offer.<ref name=HSTLC-142/>
