Desolate Plains was spared the immense death toll and destruction that many other Taurian worlds suffered, however; this was due to [[General]] Lord [[Damien Onaga]] having replaced [[Field Marshal]] [[Amos Forlough]] as the overall Commanding Officer of the SLDF units deployed on BULL RUN in [[2590]]. Onaga's approach to conquering Desolate Plains saw him deliberately rotating troops<ref name="H:RWp91"/> from [[II Corps (Star League)|II Corps]]<ref name="H:RWp143">''Historical: Reunification War'', p. 143, "Taurian Concordat Front [2586-2596]"</ref> in and out of battle, giving them an opportunity to blood themselves, while limiting his campaign to purely military targets, rather than cities and civilian infrastructure. This made the conquest of Desolate Plains a slower campaign than many previous planetary assaults, but inflicted far less damage, and with much of the planetary garrison having already been stripped away by the [[Taurian Defense Force]] to fight in other systems during earlier years of the war, the battle for Desolate Plains was over by the end of October 2590.<ref name="H:RWp91">''Historical: Reunification War'', p. 91, "Cleanup"</ref> <!-- Commented out due to lack of information == Political Affiliation == == Planetary Rulers == == Military Deployment == == Geography == == Planetary Locations == == Industrial Centers == == Image gallery == --> ==Notes== Desolate Plains doesn't appear on the post-[[Reunification War]] map of the Inner Sphere presented in [[Historical: Reunification War]].
