During the darkest days of the Second Succession War the Lyran Commonwealth was losing worlds steadily to both the Draconis Combine and the [[Free Worlds League]], and the [[Lyran Commonwealth Armed Forces]] neared the point of collapse, particularly in the 2860s and 2870s. As the 2870s drew to a close the LCAF regained some of its confidence and launched a number of attempts to recapture some of the worlds that had been lost to the Commonwealth's neighbors, but still couldn't keep pace with the rate at which worlds were being captured. The Combine continued to push towards the important world of [[Skye]], and by [[2884]] Balkan had been captured along with the worlds of [[Kessel]], [[Port Moseby]], [[Ryde]], [[Skondia]] and [[Vega]] and the [[Draconis Combine Mustered Soldiery]] was on the verge of being able to threaten Skye directly.<ref name="HS(TLC)p68"/>
