−	In [[2942]], a LCAF punitive raid against Bella I brought together ''Stingrays'' from both Successor States. The initial clashes in orbit proved inconclusive until House Steiner's heavy fighters brought their massive firepower to bear, driving the defending ''Stingrays'' into the atmosphere. LCAF landings followed, and the Stingray duels continued. Both sides fitted with ground attack weapons engaged in attack and counterattack against 'Mechs and supply areas. Eventually, the Steiner forces established air superiority and the raiding force departed with most of its objectives accomplished, with the ''Stingrays'' on both sides effectively canceling each other out.<ref name=TRO3025p154>''Technical Readout: 3025'', p. 154: "F-90 Stingray"</ref>	+	Following the dissolution of the Free Worlds League in January 3079, elements within the Lyran Alliance moved to annex a number of former League worlds between August and September that year.

These brutal tactics saw him capture Bella I in early 2456, eleven months after the first League attacks.<ref name="HS(TLC)p21"/> The Lyran Commonwealth was able to recapture Bella I and Alula Australis in 2468 through the use of [[BattleMech]]s, after Lyran 'Mechs had already ended Geralk's campaign by crushing him to death on Loric in 2459.<ref name="HM(TFWL)p16"/> === First Succession War === Bella I was one of a number of Lyran Commonwealth border worlds to be struck by a devastating cross-border raids by the Free Worlds League between [[2786]] and [[2790]], as the [[Lyran Commonwealth Armed Forces]] began to crack under the pressure of continuing efforts to annex the [[Bolan Thumb]] while also attempting to maintain a defensive posture against both the [[Draconis Combine Mustered Soldiery]] and the [[Free Worlds League Military]].<ref name="FSWp62">''First Succession War'', p. 62, "The War of Raids: House Steiner's Succession War"</ref> ===The Jihad=== Following the dissolution of the Free Worlds League in January 3079, elements within the Lyran Alliance moved to annex a number of former League worlds between August and September that year. Bella I was one of seven worlds conquered during this period, and the invasion only stopped when [[Archon]] [[Adam Steiner]] declared that any other bouts of what he termed "unauthorized adventurism" would be considered an act of treason.<ref name="J:FRp60">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 60, "The Jihad In Review"</ref> <!-- Commented out due to lack of information ===Planetary Rulers=== --> ===Military Deployment=== ====2765==== * [[Eleventh Donegal Guards]]<ref name=FR:2765LCAFp11>''Field Report 2765: LCAF'', p. 11, "Donegal Guards" - Regimental Status</ref> ====2786==== * Eleventh Donegal Guards<ref name="FSWp139">''First Succession War (sourcebook)'', p. 139, "First Succession War Deployment Table - LCAF"</ref> ====2821==== '''LCAF''' * [[Thirteenth Lyran Guards]]<ref name="FSWp139"/> * [[Twelfth Lyran Regulars]]<ref name="FSWp139"/> '''FWLM''' *[[151st Light Horse Regiment|151st Horse Regiment]] <ref name="FSWp138">''First Succession War (sourcebook)'', p. 138, "First Succession War Deployment Table - FWLM"</ref> ====3020==== * [[Second Free Worlds Guards]]<ref name="Dispatch">''Dispatch''</ref> ===3025=== * Second Free Worlds Guards<ref name=HM108>''House Marik (The Free Worlds League)'', p. 108, "Unit Deployment Table"</ref> ====3050==== * Second Free Worlds Guards<ref name=20YU56>''20 Year Update'', p. 56, "Free Worlds League Deployment Table"</ref> ====3054==== * Second Free Worlds Guards<ref name=OR37>''Objective Raids'', p. 37, "Free Worlds League Deployment Table"</ref> ====3059==== * Second Free Worlds Guards<ref name=FMFWL110>''Field Manual: Free Worlds League'', p. 110, "Free Worlds League Deployment Table"</ref> ====3067==== * Second Free Worlds Guards<ref name=FMU159>''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 159, "Free Worlds League Deployment Table"</ref> ====3085==== * [[Fourth Lyran Regulars]]<ref>''Field Manual: 3085'', p. 107, "Deployment Table - 3085"</ref> ====3145==== * [[24th Wolf Garrison (Clan Wolf)|Twenty-fourth Wolf Garrison Cluster]]<ref name=FM:3145p171>''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 171, "Clan Force Deployments - Wolf Empire"</ref> <!-- Commented out due to lack of information ===Geography=== ===Planetary Locations=== ===Industrial Centers=== ===Image gallery=== --> == Map Gallery == <div class="system-map-gallery"></div> == Nearby Systems == <!-- NOTE: This table is automatically generated by BattleTechWiki:Project_Planets/Mapping, and any edits to this section may be overwritten at any time by a bot --> {|class="wikitable nearby-systems" style="background: #gray; text-align:center; border: 1px solid black;" !
