These groups then began skirmishing with each other, seeking resources or slaves.<ref name=ISP3p39/> |

The space station had been in use by forces belonging to the [[Empire of the Stars]] for some time, who used it as a way station for raiding vessels. The station was equipped with modest defenses, but the Reachers launched an attack in an attempt to gain control of it. Much to the surprise of the Empire's forces, the Reachers' attempt was successful, even though it cost them half their marines and two of their three shuttles... and the Reachers then proceeded to successfully ambush and capture an Imperial raiding force within a month.<ref name=ISP3p39/> |
This turning point prompted the Reachers to form the Far Reach Collective and begin reaching out to nearby systems. Corporate espionage was considered a high art form on Far Reach, and by leveraging that particular strength, the Collective was able to infiltrate neighboring powers, gather information and then use that intelligence to form beneficial pacts and treaties.<ref name=ISP3p39/> | This turning point prompted the Reachers to form the Far Reach Collective and begin reaching out to nearby systems.
