==Overview:==
 
<br />
 
First the different Factions:
 
<br />
 
The Falcons began an significant rebuild after the Coventry Campaign. They created new Clusters (Swoop Clusters + new PGC and Eyrie Clusters).
 
New equipment and designs filled the holes in the roster. Khan Marthe Pryde has 10 new clusters (6 in the OZ and 4 from the Homeworlds) and the preperation last 10 month. The assault started mid 3064.<br />
 
The objectivs:<br />
 
*expanded their occupation zone
 
*train (blooding) the next falcon generation against a worthsome enemy
 
<br />
 
The Wolfs took advantage of the lightly defended interclan border. Khan Wards own touman included several newly created clusters as result of the Harvest Trials. <br />
 
The objectives:
 
*show the rest of the clans that the wolf had teeth
 
*took oppotunity of the weakened clan border
 
*testing new warriors also<br />
 
The Wolf (in Exile) strike at their own in the OZ after several defences of Lyran controlled Worlds.<br />
 
The LAAF had big troubles. The Civilwar raged on and weaken the entire realm. The Jade Falcons see an easy pray. In the first phase the defense was disorganized but skilled leader like Adam Steiner and Archer Christofferi changed the cause to the better side. This efforts go sofar that they can start counter raids/assult in the Falcon OZ. They LAAF started the Operations Bludgeon (to reconquer lyran worlds atttacked by the Falcons) and Audacity (attacking worlds in the OZ).
 
<br />
 
As a result the clanborder changed significantly. Every faction had gains and looses.

:Phase One= Waves 1 to 5 (10th June - 30th September 3064) + Operation Bludgeon and Operation Audacity
+
==Overview==
:Phase Two= Retreat from Melissia and starting an counter assault in the OZ. Clan WoE take part of the action (End of Phase 10th December 3064)
+
The Falcons began to significantly rebuild after the [[Jade Falcon Incursion (3058)|Coventry Campaign]]. They created several new [[Cluster]]s, including Swoop Clusters, new PGC and Eyrie Clusters with new equipment and designs filling the holes in the roster. [[Khan]] [[Marthe Pryde]] controlled ten new Clusters, six in the Occupation Zone and four from the Homeworlds, preparing for the last ten months. The assault officially started mid-[[3064]], with clear objectives of expanding their existing occupation zone and training the next generation of Falcon warriors against a worthy enemy.
:Phase Three=In the end phase all faction end the fighting slowly and put additional forces as garrison to the conquered planets.
+
 
 +
In response, Clan Wolf took advantage of the lightly defended interclan border, as Khan Ward's [[Clan Wolf Touman|own ''touman'']] included several newly created Clusters as the result of the [[Harvest Trials]]. Their objectives were to show the rest of the Clans that the Wolves still had teeth while taking advantage of the weakened Jade Falcon border, all the while testing the new warriors of their ''touman''.
 +
 
 +
The Wolves-in-Exile struck at their own in the Occupation Zone after several defenses of Lyran-controlled Worlds.
 +
 
 +
The [[LAAF]] had major issues at the time, with the FedCom Civil war raging on which weakened the entire realm. The Jade Falcons saw them as easy prey. In the first phase, the defense was disorganized but skilled leaders like [[Adam Steiner]] and [[Archer Christifori]] allowed for a reversal of the Lyran fortune. Their efforts went so well that they could start counterraids and assaults in the Falcon Occupation Zone with the LAAF starting Operation Bludgeon to reconquer Lyran worlds attacked by the Falcons, and Operation Audacity, attacking worlds in the Occupation Zone.
 +
 
 +
As a result, the borders of the various local powers changed significantly, with every faction having gains and losses.

Overview[edit]

The Falcons began to significantly rebuild after the Coventry Campaign. They created several new Clusters, including Swoop Clusters, new PGC and Eyrie Clusters with new equipment and designs filling the holes in the roster. Khan Marthe Pryde controlled ten new Clusters, six in the Occupation Zone and four from the Homeworlds, preparing for the last ten months. The assault officially started mid-3064, with clear objectives of expanding their existing occupation zone and training the next generation of Falcon warriors against a worthy enemy.

In response, Clan Wolf took advantage of the lightly defended interclan border, as Khan Ward's own touman included several newly created Clusters as the result of the Harvest Trials. Their objectives were to show the rest of the Clans that the Wolves still had teeth while taking advantage of the weakened Jade Falcon border, all the while testing the new warriors of their touman.

The Wolves-in-Exile struck at their own in the Occupation Zone after several defenses of Lyran-controlled Worlds.

The LAAF had major issues at the time, with the FedCom Civil war raging on which weakened the entire realm. The Jade Falcons saw them as easy prey. In the first phase, the defense was disorganized but skilled leaders like Adam Steiner and Archer Christifori allowed for a reversal of the Lyran fortune. Their efforts went so well that they could start counterraids and assaults in the Falcon Occupation Zone with the LAAF starting Operation Bludgeon to reconquer Lyran worlds attacked by the Falcons, and Operation Audacity, attacking worlds in the Occupation Zone.

As a result, the borders of the various local powers changed significantly, with every faction having gains and losses.
