'''Kimball VI''' was the subject of a bandit raid in [[3021]]; the ruler of [[Butte Hold]], [[Redjack Ryan]], tasked [[Wilson's Hussars]] to raid Kimball VI to obtain mining equipment and ore processing equipment, as Kimball VI appeared to be the perfect target. Kimball VI had only been settled because of the rich bauxite deposits present on the world, which were mined and processed to fuel the industries on the much more heavily populated Kimball II. With a population of only 100,000, Kimball VI had only a small local militia and a hired mercenary unit, the [[Laws Flight]], equipped with helicopters for defense, leading Redjack Ryan to expect the planet to be easy pickings.<ref name="TRO:3026Rp20"/> | '''Kimball VI''' was the subject of a bandit raid in [[3021]]; the ruler of [[Butte Hold]], [[Redjack Ryan]], tasked [[Wilson's Hussars]] to raid Kimball VI to obtain mining equipment and ore processing equipment, as Kimball VI appeared to be the perfect target.

The Hussars couldn't close with the fast VTOLs after the initial ambush against the Hussars' Recon Lance, but Wilson insisted on trying, leading his entire company in pursuit of the mercenaries.
