Instead of planetary conquest, both sides sought to hone their warriors and keep their foes off balance in various objective raids, actions reminiscent of the last few years of the [[Third Succession War]].

Chistu decided to target the world of [[Morges]] for invasion, as it appeared to be a major staging area for attacks into their territory. He further selected [[Vau Galaxy (Clan Jade Falcon)|Vau Galaxy]], one of his top commands, to claim this world for the Falcons.
