In 2427 the Lyran Commonwealth launched another campaign against the Free Worlds League, beginning with landing troops on [[Bolan]]. The Lyran forces seized Bolan and dug in, while further attacks captured the League worlds of [[Dixie]] and '''Kamenz''', leading the Free Worlds League Parliament to disband the [[War Powers Act]] and install [[Terrence Marik]] as [[Captain-General]] in response. Terrence Marik was an intelligent military leader and launched two counter-attacks on Bolan, one in 2427 and one five years later in [[2432]], but despite destroying a significant number of Lyran units in each assault he was unable to recapture Bolan.<ref name="HM(TFWL)p16"/>

===Planetary History===
 
====The Age of War====
 
In 2427, the Lyran Commonwealth launched another campaign against the Free Worlds League, beginning with landing troops on [[Bolan]]. The Lyran forces seized Bolan and dug in, while further attacks captured the League worlds of [[Dixie]] and Kamenz, leading the Free Worlds League Parliament to disband the [[War Powers Act]] and install [[Terrence Marik (25th c.)|Terrence Marik]] as [[Captain-General of the Free Worlds League|Captain-General]] in response. Terrence Marik was an intelligent military leader and launched two counterattacks on Bolan, one in 2427 and one five years later in [[2432]], but despite destroying a significant number of Lyran units in each assault he was unable to recapture Bolan.<ref name="HM(TFWL)p16"/>
 
  
 
Terrence stepped down in 2441, preferring to let another of the Marik family take the title of Captain-General and with it perhaps see more successes than he had; after a brief internal struggle within the family, his brother [[Peter Marik (25th c.)|Peter Marik II]] became Captain-General, and successfully recaptured both Bolan and Kamenz that same year.<ref name="HM(TFWL)p16"/>

During the [[First Succession War]], Kamenz was the target of a Lyran raid in [[2789]] in which [[Carl Marik]], eldest son of reigning Captain-General [[Kenyon Marik]], was killed.<ref>''First Succession War'', p. 69</ref> The planet was invaded by the Lyran Commonwealth in [[2796]] during the [[Bolan Thumb]] campaign and fell in January the following year.<ref name=FSWp70/> <ref name=FSWp115/>

On 4 January [[3151]], Kamenz suffered a minor intelligence-gathering raid by the [[First Bolan Jaegers]], who briefly clashed with the Eighth Guards before departing.<ref name=EAp23/>
