[edit] History
Marduk has the dubious honour of being the first planet to be attacked during the Second Hidden War, when the 11th Benjamin Regulars crossed the border between the Draconis Combine and the Federated Suns and struck at Marduk on the 9th of March 2725. The AFFS struck back at the Combine, launching troops against Marduk and across the border into Combine space, but were quickly pushed back by the better prepared DCMS forces. The Second Hidden War would only end after the Star League Defense Force launched Operation SMOTHER, deploying five Divisions of troops to seperate the combatants, impose order and restore the border to its pre-war state.[8]
This Black Widow Company engaged elements of the 21st Centauri Lancers during the Twelfth Battle of Marduk.[9]
