==== Second Succession War ====
In October [[2829]], the [[Davion Heavy Guards]] and [[Third Ceti Hussars]] landed on Axton as a part of [[Operation RAIN]]—one of two offensives into the Capellan Confederation being conducted simultaneously (the other being [[Operation SUN]]). The defending [[Third Liao Lancers]] fought a handful of minor clashes, despite being heavily outnumbered, before deciding to withdraw rather than be destroyed.<ref name="SSWp28">''Second Succession War'', p. 28: "The Suns-Confederation Front"</ref>
