The pirates' main thrust was outside the DropPort, where several pirates and attendant support vehicles attempted to infiltrate and steal two merchant [[DropShip]]s being prepared for liftoff. Meanwhile, other elements of the pirate unit executed a diversionary raid that was ultimately repulsed near an abandoned Lyran Alliance military installation which the Liberty government had allowed the mercenaries to use as a base.<ref name=AMCDL>''BattleCorps: INN Newscast (Solaris Broadcasting Co. section), news item published [11/01/3068]: "AMC Defends Liberty"''</ref>+ In [[3068]] the Third Dismal Disinherited was stationed on [[Hall]].
