Also known as the Anton Revolt, the war lasted from 3014 to 3015 and embroiled the Free Worlds League. It was conducted between forces loyal to Captain-General Janos Marik and forces loyal to his brother and would-be usurper, Anton Marik.

Prelude to war

Unknown to most for decades afterwards, Vesar Kristofur, the Precentor ROM of ComStar, had gone undercover as Anton Marik's top aide and adviser, and had strongly influenced events in this direction. His reasons for doing so were twofold : first, ComStar believed a civil war would disrupt the Marik economy to the point where it would correct a currency shift that had seen the devaluation of the C-Bill. Second, he had plans for Marik's newest allies, the famous Wolf's Dragoons Mercenary unit.[1]
Choosing Sides
On May 22, 3014, Anton Marik formally declared war against his brother, Janos Marik's reign. Calling Janos a "madman" and "tyrant", he called upon all the provinces of the Free Worlds League to join his rebellion. Although many units and systems did flock to his banner, it was far less than what he'd expected. Rather than be devastated by his brother's betrayal, the war seemed to raise Janos from a long torpor. The Captain-General rallied his forces, soon putting Anton's supporters on the defensive. Severely handicapping Anton was the discovery that he was receiving support from House Liao, a fact that angered many. This support came through several sources, but most obviously through the contracted services of Wolf's Dragoons, the elite mercenary unit five regiments strong, and the effective lynch-pin of Anton's forces.
By February 3015, the rebels controlled only a few remaining systems. The mental strain this placed on Anton was tremendous, and had started to show. At his headquarters on New Delos, Anton met with Jaime Wolf, ordering the mercenary commander to break his unit down into company-sized forces, and distribute them among the remaining rebel troops. Anton had hoped that this would slow the advance of Janos' forces. Wolf refused, citing the contract that had been signed. This led to a fallout between Anton and Wolf's Dragoons that had devastating consequences.
Anton promptly ordered the arrest of Joshua Wolf, brother of Jaime Wolf, and 27 other Dragoon personnel and dependents. (It would not be revealed until years later that Jaime Wolf's wife and two daughters were also among those taken.) In an interrogation of Joshua Wolf, Kristofur killed the mercenary, apparently by accident when Joshua Wolf lunged for a weapon. (Though it was later speculated the act was intentional.) The 27 others were soon executed. Anton then sent a message to Jaime Wolf, announcing the arrests while concealing the executions, and using the prisoners as hostages.[2]
Wolf's response was swift, as all of Wolf's Dragoons descended on New Delos. After three days of fighting, Natasha Kerensky led her Black Widow Company through a forest fire, attacking the rear of Anton's palace and ultimately killing him when a wall collapsed on him. The Dragoons promptly destroyed every remaining rebel unit on New Delos.
Aftermath
Anton's rebellion died with him. In a twist or irony, Janos promptly offered Wolf's Dragoons employment with the Free World's League, which Jaime Wolf accepted. Though his brother Janos would rule for another 20 years, he was ultimately assassinated during the Andurien Secession.
Kristofur would escape the carnage of New Delos, but we was demoted and exiled by ComStar for the failure of his mission.
