The Menkent Militia was the militia unit assigned to defend Menkent.[1]
History[edit]
During the Jihad a Word of Blake WarShips returning from a strike on Skye bombarded the world.[2] The Word of Blake attack on Menkent fell during the last two weeks of October 3069.[3] A trio of Mule-class DropShips fired capital missiles at the surface of the planet. The targets bombarded by the DropShips were not military (they ignored the open militia defense positions), in favor of striking civilian infrastructure targets like the Kluge City hydroelectric dam and the Acropolis fusion substations outside Athens. Scrambled aerospace defenses from Menkent Militia outposts were too slow to engage them, although other ships in orbit were able to take several long-range still photos of the attackers.[1]
